Today, Bungie’s Board of Directors announced that it has appointed Pete Parsons to the role of Chief Executive Officer, and that Harold Ryan will be stepping down from his position as studio President. As CEO, Parsons will be tasked with leading the talented Bungie team as they continue to develop great Destiny experiences.
 
Here are a few words from Pete:
 
I want to personally thank Harold for his friendship, passion, hard work, and dedication in helping make Bungie the great company it is today. As a team, we celebrated many victories and weathered many storms.
 
To the players of Destiny, I want you to know that my number one priority, and Bungie’s, is and always has been to deliver great games that we can all share together. I believe that Destiny is a one-of-a-kind experience. I also believe you have yet to see our studio’s best work. My new role here at the studio will be entirely focused on fulfilling that promise.

 
This is yet another new beginning, and a new challenge for our studio. We remain committed to creating great experiences in Destiny.

So, uh, yeah. I don't think there's anymore Grizzled Ancients left at Bungie.

Wonder if this will get them back on track or send them further off the deep end

He lost his job. No longer works at Bungie. Unless I'm mistaken.

You are correct.

"Stepping down" is a polite way to say the board fired the CEO.

If he had actually stepped down then he would have said some going away words on Bungie.net to the fans.

He did not. Obviously fired and is butt hurt

Considering all that has happened especially with what happened with Marty, I doubt he is being proactive at Bungie.

Good.

He got what he deserved. How ironic. Wanna know why? Harold Ryan is the man who wanted Marty fired and succeeded.

I predict that Bungie is going to be either total shit or completely gone in the next 20 years.

Looks like it. Jason Jones is the co-founder of Bungie.

I am always around, but never seen. I am often avoided, but you can't out run me. for I will come when you're old and grey, or maybe even the very next day. I will come with cold embrace, and give you rest with a chilled kiss on your face. I come in many forms of emotional state, whether it's irony, love, laughter, or hate. I am everyone's final fate.

Ugh, gosh. That's terrible.

He actually left after Halo 2's dev cycle finished to start his own company and then later rejoined. Only worked at Bungie for a total of ~5 years.

Kind of off-topic but what happened to Joe Tung, Luke Timmins and Sage? Any of them still at Bungie?
