Thank you sir, that was an epic rendition of this topic.

and how!

No.

Halo games aren't like "KidZ Bop (because you know, all the kids are using Z's instead of S's now, gotta get with the times)" where it is the same crap every time, they are constantly improving and pushing the capabilities of the system and the engine to create new experiences.

They are now even moving into open environments, which opens up even more possibilities.

I am not going to lie...I am a super massive Halo fan boy...that being said I am a little disappointed with Bungie making another FPS game based in the Halo universe.

Don't get me wrong I am super stoked to play through the storyline of Reach but I was really hoping for something other then a FPS. Sure the FPS genre is my favorite game genre to play but its time to do something new with the franchise. I really enjoyed Halo Wars despite all of the things I hated about it. It was something new and fresh to the universe and I still play it on occasion just for the sake of changing things up a bit. I thought Bungie was going to try their hand at maybe a third person shooter or maybe even an RPG/MMO game but it looks like its just another Halo game in a different place.

I love the guys at Bungie and I really hope they can do some different things with Reach to make it a new and unique experience for all of us loyal fans out here. Ill wait to pass final judgment once I play the game, till then Ill just hope and pray.


not so much of a fan boy if you dont want another game....i say MORE MORE MORE!!

I never said anything about not wanting another Halo game, I just wish it was something different then the previous 3. And you never know, just because Reach is going to be an FPS doesn't mean it will be anything like the last 3 Halo games. So in other words...I am going to shut up now.

If anything it would be CoD that would need to stop making games. The CoD games are generally based on generic times of wars with a storyline thrown in.
With the four Halo games present on the market, we've only just begun to explore a fraction of the many stories inside of an entire universe Bungie created. Maybe in the eyes through multiplayer it can be getting drab, and I hope Bungie does something to spice it up. Something to really set it apart from other FPS games.

Besides, if Bungie doesn't make more Halo games, Micro$oft will. Would you really want them to ruin what is a great game right now?

PURE WIN!

Bungie isn't milking the series. In my opinion, milking would be defined as:
Continuing something that originally had success, but has since failed.

Bungie is not milking because the Halo series is the greatest videogame series of all time. Period.


That, my good sir was a comment full of so much win it could go nucleur

IMHO The Halo series has always been the series that had me coming back for more, the way bungie makes games, its like art, and its beautiful art at that. the gameplay, amazing stories, graphics there is no other game developer like bungie and i will keep buying halo no matter what im not trying to worship them but c'mon we all know all the bungie members have Awsome Sauce on all their meals

  • 06.08.2009 4:49 PM PDT

Love Video Games :)

NO!~ WAY!!! Bungie + Halo=World Domiation dude halo will neaver get bored even if theres like halo 10 well maby halo 10 but still bungie can make sooooo much monny and stuff off halo its not even funny. when halo 3 came out first day they made over 120MiLLION dollers Think of it dude... think,...

I was hoping for a new game, but Reach will be awesome. I had something else to say, but can't seem to remember. Oh, yeah, duh.. Bungie said they won't be making any Halo games after Halo 3. ODST and Reach both take place before it. Get what i mean?

If you like euphemisms, you can refer to the rank resets as "prestiging".

Think of it as Bungie making a new game but with a Halo theme.

Well dude i dont know what your smoking but Halo is awesome. I have been playing this game since the beginning and have been in love with it ever since. If you think that your getting tired of it then i suggest you find a new game because it looks like halo is here to stay. XD

To keep halo going I think they need a EPIC plot twist to keep things interesting.

So, what do you guys think about this? In my opinion bungie needs to go out and create a new game. Now please before all you guys that come in here and flame me about how "halo is freash" "it never gets old" Please take into concederation the fact that you have not been playing halo since the begining. Now when I heard this announcement at e3 I said wow thats nice we get another new halo! Then i began to think about how boring and old this title is getting. If Bungie does not get off this Milk train soon we will end up getting halo 17 reach rise of the covinant aerosmith. And I know we dont want this to happen. I also remember reading somewhere that bungie said that halo 3 was there last halo game. And hell, Were getting 2 more... So I know this is probably going to get locked and all but before it does i would like to hear your guys say your opinion. PLEASE DONT POST IF YOU ARE JUST TRYING TO WORSHIP THE BUNGIE PPL.


i kind of agree, i love halo and im definitly going to get reach, but i to was hoping for a new game unrelated to the halo universe, but i think they have another project that thier working on
hopefully that will be a new game

Team Slayer: 48
Team Doubles: 46
Team SWAT: 46
MLG: 45
Team Snipers: 43
Squad Battle: 37

It's not the exact same as any of the other Halo games. All of them have had something new and spicy to add to the Halo universe.

Next time you try and make a thread critiquing something, please use spellcheck.

HOO-RAH!!

all i have to say is: BUNGIE keep the HALO games coming because you make the best games out there and are the ones that are the most fun!

  • 06.08.2009 7:23 PM PDT

That's 9 e's.

Personally, as long as the game is fun to play, I don't really care that it is still about Halo. It would be nice to see what else Bungie can do besides Halo, but then again, Bungie has captivated many people in the Halo Universe and it is great that they are expanding on the story by adding a prequel.

And by the way, yes, I have been playing Halo since the beginning.

  • 06.08.2009 7:28 PM PDT

Hell no. I love the Halo universe and the Halo games so this is perfect. After this, I wanna see a game made to do with Gray Team., to see what those bad boys are getting down to.

Correction: Buingie said that Halo 3:ODST was the last game in the Halo Trilogy, meaning that that particular segment of the story is over and done with. And I originally felt the same way that you did, but I changed my mind. 5 games is really not that much for a hugely popular franchise such as Halo. I have read many comments on Youtube that say that people believe that Bungie is "whoring " out the Halo franchise. But would you say that COD is being "whored?" (mispelled, I know) If your worried about having the same old gameplay format, remember that most FPS's are essentially the same, with a few minor tweaks. If you're worried about the same old story, Halo takes place in a huge and widely expansive universe, with many stories that will probably never be told by the games, such as the siege of Harvest, or the creation of the Spartan III's. For now, I'm perfectly fine with a couple of more Halo games. But right around the time that the Halo catalouge rivals that of Final Fantasy, then I will be worried.

Phoenix is dead, long live Phoenix!
Is it?

With the tiny minuscule bits of information I've received I'm more than happy with them doing this. It'll be different enough to feel fresh.

I dont think they are going to far, I was really hoping to see a new series out of them but eh, bungie makes a game, Ill buy it.

Halo is freash and it never gets old.

seriously. The story is amazing, and always has different things to offer. There are more game developers out there, and if you dont like halo, then play a different game.
