Apologies if this hasn't already been posted, but I thought this deserved its own thread. Feel free to move it, mods, if it's been posted elsewhere though.

So news on Bungie's new gaming franchise got leaked today to IGN, which gave a brief description of the new game/world that they're creating, along with a bunch of image stills giving an insight into how the game might look. Bungie came out and confirmed that the leak was true, and also confirmed that they're hoping for a Winter 2013 release.

Synopsis: "Our story begins seven hundred years from now in the Last City on Earth, in a Solar System littered with the ruins of man's Golden Age. A massive, mysterious alien ship hangs overhead like a second Moon. No one knows where it came from or what it's here for, but only that it's our protector. Meanwhile, strange, alien monsters creep in from the edge of the universe, determined to take Earth and the Last City. We are young ‘knights' tasked with defending the remains of humanity, discovering the source of these monsters and — eventually — overcoming it."
