Please Read This First Before Answering Poll Please.

Question: If Bungie made a Halo game, based on the Halo storyline and universe, but in a different Genre, Would you play it?

Some examples: A Halo Related Flying game... Fly longswords, Captain a Ship like the Pillar of Autum. Or a stategic squad based shooter, where you control marines. What about a Halo RTS like it was first planed to be?

I most definatly would, if it continued the storyline and offerd genre breaking gameplay. What do you think? Thanks

I voted yes.
I'd like to play a space sim, that'd be pretty neat.

It would be cool if you were able to control battle ships in the Covenant vs. UNSC space battles.

I agree, That was the inspiration for the question. While reading "The Fall of Reach" I thought it would be amazing to comand the ships, fire your missiles and pull off the Keyes Loop.
Does anyone have any other ideas for a cool Halo game?

Halo Sports Network

Football (the PROPER one) with a Grunt's head, rugby with an Elite's arm, tennis with a Jackal's...well, I'll let you think about that one.

A Halo space sim would be great. But they'd have to do it right.

Wow Great to see a good discussion. Oh and Sketch posting on my topic, I feel special! Thanks. Lets try and get 10-0 on Frankie

Speaking of Frankie, how about a side scrolling Mr Chief Game? With Lightsaber and Go'n'Ribs action?

Yeah keep the discussion going, A cart game? Halo Kart! Pretty kewl idea.
What about a halo puzzle game? like Pannel de-pon style? Ok seriously! I think the best so far are Flying sims and RTS but there could be others that would really work? Lets put our colective Halo obsesed minds to it.

how about a super mario style halo game? Mario would be the chief... yoshi would be a warthog, koopas could be jackels... etc.. I bet someone could do it in flash...

anyway... i would definately play a halo RPG

I'm a big Homeworld fan (spaceship RTS). There is a discussion thread (25 pages) with a group that want to make a halo mod for the game. The game isn't too hard to mod if you know how (or so i hear, lol). At any rate the link is below

also there is a FANTASTIC mod if you're into GOOD star wars

go to the 2nd page and check out the gallery to see some superb screenshots. The graphics in this game can be modded to be improved and even though the texturing, etc. was great in the origional build of the homeworld 2 engine the guy who made the SW mod has doubled (or trippled, can't exactly remember) the amount of polys and textures.

A halo game along the lines of star wars:knights of the old republic would be sweet, and would definatley be fun

Those all sound fun, a halo action RPG.. But how would it work?

I'm certifiable.

Heck, yes! So long as the gameplay is good and it's true to the storyline, I'd love other genres of Halo goodness.

A Homeworld mod has been mentioned, and that'd be great. The side-scrolling Mister Chief would be good for a chuckle. I dunno about an RPG, as the mortality rate is pretty high in the Halo universe... but I guess it was in Diablo, too.

And Halo as an RTT like Myth would RAWK!
