Okay I mean Halo 1 was one of the best selling games ever and I heard from some poll that over 50% of xbox oweners are halo owners. I think we can all rest assure that Halo 2 is going to be awesome and will probably most likely out sell the 1st. Now I'm trying to sound greedy, but usually when a game does well, they make another, and if that game does well they make yet another, for instance Doom III. So I was just wondering does anyone think that Bungie will ever make a Halo 3?

No I don't want them to concentrate on the 3rd, in fact I'd rather them not even think about a 3rd Halo at this point, because I want them to focus their full attention on Halo 2. I simply wondered if they would make a 3rd one down the road. I mean Halo 2 is going to kick ass, but I would really love to see the story continue, rather than end on November 9th.

the game that has sold more on the xbox is the DOA series, its only topped by the amazing mario bros

who cares

Appearantly someone does.

Anyhow, Bungie currently has no plans for a Halo 3. There's nothing more to say.

It seems to me the reasonable strategy would be to leave the ending of Halo2 at least decently open, so Bungie can go on with another sequel if Halo2 sells well - and I don't think anyone believes that it won't, unless it's a disaster. If things go as planned, with such a cash cow as Halo has turned out to be, it would be crazy not to take it further.
Other than that, with the Halo-project having been around for so long, with Halo2 taking its own sweet time to develop as well, and with three books published, I'd be surprised if the people behind Halo don't already have a pretty clear idea of where to take the story next.

I think that a halo 3!?!?..hmmm..u know what usually happens when u make so many parts of a VERY GREAT GAME...it gets boring and bungie won't know what toehr story to make i mean think about it?or maybe i'm wrong,we'll have to wait till the end of halo2,and see how it ends.From there..we can go ahead and make predictions.Great games don't have to have so many parts,they'll always be remembered.

Well, that depends. There's nothing inherently bad with a sequel, it's just that a lot of sequels are based off poor ideas, where financial gain replaces the initial passion and creativity as a driving force. As long as the Halo story holds out, I wouldn't mind to see it taken further, especially as a rather detailed world is being built up around it.

Well, Final Fantasy is a bit different since each game (with the exception of FFX and FFX-2) has had new characters and basically a completely new setting. However, look at the Metal Gear-series to see something that's only been growing better and better back from its roots in the old 8-bit NES.

Indeed,as long as the story line stays strong,the rest is easy,such as new vehicles,weaposn,characters,ext.

yup there is going to be a third game. check to see how many marathons there are. last time i checked it was three. and theres a lot in say in that.
if you disagree, go jerk off in the closet or something. i dont even see how this is a thread- i knew there would be three since the first day of playing halo.

oh, and another damn thing! there is this Halo Bible that exists... has all of the Halo storyline already in it. so they already know what happens in the story. so its not like MGS series or anything else-- its already planned out.

bungie knows how many games they will make. my guess is three, because nothing else makes any sense.
