Up next: Bungie.
Bungie is a Games Developing corporation based in Bellevue, Washington, U.S.A. although they were originally based in Chicago, Illinois. The company was founded in 1991 by Jason Jones and Alex Seropian. In 2000, Bungie was bought out by Microsoft, and together they spawned one of the most successful game franchises ever: Halo. The Halo series would become Xbox's flagship, or "killer application," and is worth billions of dollars. In 2007, Bungie split from Microsoft and became a privately held independent company (though Microsoft retained the rights to Halo.) They have since incorporated a publishing deal with Activision.
Bungie are appealing to me due to their informal and creative way of working. I would love to work in that kind of environment, and even though the company is based in America, I think I could be willing to move out there for this team's personality. Also, the epic style of their games (Halo, Destiny) intrigues me a lot, and are the type of games I would love to work on.
