Major Nelson has put up his summary of the latest Humpday Challenge that pitted Xbox Live against Bungie. Xbox Live prevailed, winning narrowly in Team Slayer and 3 Plots and pulling out a tie in Multi Flag CTF. All three games were played on new maps; Sanctuary, Turf, and Containment, respectively. (Against anyone else, Bungie might have an advantage playing on the new maps, but I'm betting Xbox Live personnel probably also got a chance to test them prior to release, so that advantage may have been negated in this case--Ed.)

Not necessarily so
In reply to: Bungie team was beat by the Xbox live teamI haven't kept precise track, but Bungie gets beat about as often as they win. I think it just shows that spending all the time necessary to make a game may give you familiarity, but doesn't necessarily give you the time to practice to beat top players.
