I Got Next: Why you should care about Oni, Bungie's forgotten gem
Things could have been so different. Imagine a world in which people didn't love Halo when it came out in 2001? Would the Xbox 360 have existed? Would Destiny have ever been made? Most importantly: would Oni, Bungie's PS2 homage to Ghost in the Shell, have gone on to become the studio's most beloved game?
Probably not! As Taken King mania sweeps over the gaming land this week, though, now's the perfect time to revisit that strange entry in the Bungie catalog on I Got Next, our weekly talk show. Coming along for the ride is writer, comedian, and host Matt Little. Matt's a jack of all trades, hosting the weekly showcase BYOT at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater, writing at Comic Book Resources, and ranting for Toy Pizza. It all starts at 3:30PM ET/12:30PM PT.
