Anyone but Foman. He smells like cheese.

Well yes, I agree with you, but I don't think that this is too profound. This should be and pretty much is the goal of any video game -- to become a brand rather than just a game. The fans want swag. They want to buy things like Master Chief action figures and Halo t-shirts. There is certainly nothing wrong with this. Corporations exist to make money; if they can make money while pleasing their fans at the same time, why not go for it?

Well, as you've noticed Bungie has been doing a lot of things such as clix, replica laser tag rifles, etc. So, now that you think about it it seems more that Halo is becoming a brand rather than a game. Discuss.
