There is no Game Boy version of Halo planned, and none in production. It's very unlikely that such a version would ever happen for all the obvious reasons, and the less obvious reasons, that the ColecoVision talks fell apart and The Bandai Pippin version is taking up all our development bandwidth…

Through war we will teach your heresy.
Through battle we will teach your frailty.
Through death we will teach your fate.

Then, what kind of nerve does Craig have to "Officially" announce it...?

Don't pity the poor delusional fool - pour scorn on him. Go on, pour!

Maybe in a few years when technology advances to the point where a Game Boy version would actually be enjoyable.

I can't wait when the virtual reality Halo 5 comes out!!!

jib dont be dumb.i seriously doubt there will be any other Halo games.from whats been released about the story,the final missions will end the Covenant threat.and dont ask about the Flood or Halo cuz those are also taken care of.

No they weren't.There are other Halos, and maybe more Flood on the other Halos.

What I want to see is a halo rts like warcraft 3 or something. LIke you could be either humans, covenant, flood, or forerunner. That would be awesome.

well thats good news. in fact, if MS is making an handheld, then it might be usefull, because handhelds allready are as powerfull as P3 450 mhz...

Halo would probably become a joke if it did become handheld as you cannot do enough justice to the game with that size of screen and so little processing power.

Halo would suck on GBA if it was a first person shooter. Every FPS I've played on my gba has blown. But if they were to do a Halo on gba I'm sure it would be more like Contra or Metroid, and those games are great.

Halo for GBA would be really bad, the graphics would be poo, the game play would be poo, and with the graphics there are at the moment(for GBA) the weapons on FPS would be total poo!!!! ALTOGETHER, IT WOULD BE............wait for it..........POO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good can you imigine the other GBA turned games. Resident Evil, Perfect Dark, Splinter Cell, they're horrible. Though I have seen some intresting idea for HAL0 GBA. [color=red]Check out http://photos.groups.yahoo.com/group/h2uc/lst?&.dir=/Halo +stuff&.src=gr&.begin=9999&.view=t&.order=&am p;.done=http%3a//photos.groups.yahoo.com/group/h2uc/lst%3f%26 .dir=/Halo%2bstuff%26.src=gr%26.view=t [/color]Looks neat but dont expect it to come out or be super cool like HAL0

Oh, that's a relief. I'm thinking my comp has a virus, so when the link didn't work...i was about ready to call some1 to take care of it. Fortunately...it's not my friggin comp thats having trouble with the site.

Please get out Halo 2 before anyone even thinks about butchering the series with a GBA version. Thank you for your cooperation, I'm ur slave forever, Bungie.

Oh, wait, I forgot...Bungie can do anything. Bungie, you could make a good version of a Halo GBA, just because you are Bungie. Even if it sucked I'd still buy it for the Halo liscensing. I mean, think about it guys...lets not say..."don't make a handheld Halo"...lets say..."makew sure its friggin awesome or don't even think about it"...I mean...Bungie can do anything, right?
