Ziff Davis splices up Grudge Match videos to spike Bungie |

Top story on Bungie last week (and part of the weekly update) was the big Grudge Match with Ziff Davis' 1Up gang against Bungie's finest in a heated match of Halo 2. It seems, however, that someone might have pulled a few strings here and there to make it look like the 1Up crowd actually got their revenge on Bungie's former match up win.
Testing out the two new maps that came out for Halo 2 last week, 1Up and Bungie faced off in a best of three match up numbering eight players per side on Slayer and Team Slayer game modes. 1Up had Luke Smith, Mark and Shoe from EGM, plus Rob from GameVideos, while Bungie had Shishka, Max, Sketch, and Bungie updater Frank.
Clearly, Bungie disagreed with 1Up's own video coverage of the three game sessions, showing their own run down of what happened in the "Bungie Humpday Challenge" and accusing Ziff Davis of chicanery. The scores came up as 2-1, in favor of Bungie.
Game one had Bungie taking down 1Up on Tombstone with scores ending at 50-36. On the Second round, Bungie served 1Up back on a silver platter, with the bittersweet feeling of having owned 1Up in Ivory Tower where they formerly lost and scores ending at 50-45. In the third round, 1Up took Bungie in a close race to 50 on the new map Desolation with 50-49 score in favor of 1Up.
We're not sure what really happened yet, but that's a really lame trick to pull on the guys who wear Spartan helms to work.
