Bungie, Inc. is an American video game developer located in Bellevue, Washington, United States.

The company was established in May 1991 as Bungie Software Products Corporation by University of Chicago undergraduate student Alex Seropian, who later brought in programmer Jason Jones after publishing Jones' game .

Originally based in Chicago, Illinois, the company concentrated primarily on Macintosh games during its early years and created two very successful video game franchises called Marathon and Myth.

A West Coast offshoot produced the PC and console title Oni.

Destiny is an online-only multiplayer first-person shooter video game developed by Bungie and published by Activision.

It was released worldwide on September 9, 2014, for the PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One consoles.

Destiny marked Bungie's first new console franchise since the Halo series, and it is the first game in a ten-year agreement between Bungie and Activision.

Set in a "mythic science fiction" world, the game features a multiplayer "shared-world" environment with elements of role-playing games.

Activities in Destiny are divided among player versus environment (PvE) and player versus player (PvP) game types.

In addition to normal story missions, PvE features three-player "strikes" and six-player raids.

A free roam patrol mode is also available for each planet and features public events.

PvP features objective-based modes, as well as traditional deathmatch game modes.

A wiki is a website that provides collaborative modification of its content and structure directly from the web browser.

In a typical wiki, text is written using a simplified markup language (known as "wiki markup") and often edited with the help of a rich-text editor.

A wiki is run using wiki software, otherwise known as a wiki engine.

There are dozens of different wiki engines in use, both standalone and part of other software, such as bug tracking systems.

Some wiki engines are open source, whereas others are proprietary.

Some permit control over different functions (levels of access); for example, editing rights may permit changing, adding or removing material.

Others may permit access without enforcing access control.

Other rules may also be imposed to organize content.

A wiki engine is a type of content management system, but it differs from most other such systems, including blog software, in that the content is created without any defined owner or leader, and wikis have little implicit structure, allowing structure to emerge according to the needs of the users.
