Ima bit of diehart command and conquer fan and i love the series but the game genre has gotten played out.i dont want bungie making the same mistake with halo by just making it an FPS,there's other game genre's they can try for halo like an RPG or something,the problem with a game series,the game's genre itself never really changes through the series.bungie has more fans than they know about.i met this kid in Halo 1 multiplayer and he lived in rural india and no one in his village even heard of bungie.bungie has to keep its train going.

Forever there shall be war, thus forever we shall fight...

I do concur. But are you saying C&C is played out, this is probably not the place to voice this, but you are incorrect. C&C keeps changing, so does Halo. Bungie is just too damn good to let the series go stagnant. I cannot imagine them releasing a game that is anything less than incredible.

i meant by using a different game genre besides a first person shooter.command&conquer has always been an RTS except 4 renegade.when Halo wars came out i was hoping to try it out when i did,i found out that the gameplay on it sucked althought the graphics were awsome.bungie made a big mistake by having it be made by an unknown source,they should asked westwood to help them out on it.Westwood studios would gladly helped if bungie split the profit off of it.

Halo's a hell of a drug.

good luck beating Mario, Metroid, and Zelda. They have a decades head start.

Underwater Eagle.

An RPG would absolutely destroy the franchise. The worst possible thing that I could imagine for the series would be to make it into an RPG.

I don't know. If it was a hybrid with RPG elements and upgrades like Bioshock, System Shock, Dues Ex, or even Fallout 3 it might be good as long as the gameplay isn't second string like in Fallout 3 or the original Mass Effect.

I'm happy Bioware realized Mass Effect didn't work as a shooter, and decided to touch up the system so it would work better as a shooter, and an rpg in Mass Effect 2, instead of an rpg with shooting gameplay tacked on like the original Mass Effect.

Halo has the Elements 4 an Rpg or different genre of videogames.what im try to say is,you cant always have the same genre for a videogame series 4 a long then players will get bored with it or they can mix up the story plot a bit to convince gamers to buy next game for the series.

All the big Zelda, Metroid and Mario releases over the last 20 years have remained in the same genre, why can't Halo? Halo is one of the big players in gaming now, Bungie won't let it go stale.
