Guys keep it on-topic...

I always knew MS had control over Halo I just thought that they'd let Bungie get on with the game and not interfere much.

I'm pretty sure they will not interfere with what Bungie does with Halo. I see this as a way to make sure other companies that want to make a Halo game don't make a sucky game or something that messes with the Halo lore.

MS just wants to keep the cash flow coming, but i dont think its a bad thing, unless they start getting to involved and try to make major changes.
No one eveeeeer say there milking CoD! CoD is on it's 8th game and Halo's on its 5th!
And if you've got a problem with 343 studios, you've got a problem with Frankie. And no one hates Frankie cus he r kwl gai.

Yeah I guess so, as long as MS doesn't interfere with Bungie it should be alright.

The anime thing doesn't really bother me, most people will probably watch it on the internet anyway cause I can't really see people buying it just cause it's called Halo. Oh wait...

We can't say for sure it's bad until we see it for ourselves, don't judge a thing before it's getting released to the public.
And no -blam!-! like The Halo Community haven't seen any good Halo Fan-Created CGI Films.

You know theres 8 Mario Party games... awesome.
Halo Legends doesn't look bad at all, more stories from the halo universe I mean no one complains about the books. There are only 4 games and an Expansion on the Halo 3 story, and everything has a toy now a days. Microsoft is a company that wants to make money, you don't make money by making bad products.

I'm glad Frankie is doing well!

You can't kill what's dead.

Stand. Fight. Resist. S2F.

M$ owns the Halo license? I don't know, but maybe that has something to do with it.

So long as they don't rush the games, they should be alright.

Hm. Not sure how a Halo Anime would work out, but I'll give it a chance.

Hey, does 343 Industries have a site? I'd like to check it out.

How is it being milked for 5 games and an expansion, the games are all quality. It's not like there is a new halo every year. No, it's every THREE years, and we always get Quality games, so stop complaining about it.

Refer back to my last post.

I stopped reading at quality games, looked at Halo 3, then looked back at that post in complete disbelief. Sure the multiplayer was decent but the campaign was a joke.

I hate to agree, but yeah, the campaign did suck. Plus, look at Halo Wars. I pre-ordered the limited edition, I defended it all over the place, I finally got it, and then realized it was absolutely horrible.

And for you guys saying there's only 5 Halo games so far...
Halo Wars
Halo Reach
Halo 1
Halo 2
Halo 3: ODST
Halo 3
Halo DVD Game (forget the name)
Halo Chronicles
Peter Jackson Project

and don't forget they made a bunch of books, comics, now an anime, etc... yeah, Halo is pretty milked.

EDIT: If you add up every Halo project known, there's been 21 Halo-related products.

Guys, the article said that good ol' Frankie is the guy overseeing the franchise. We can trust him.

I've always had respect for Frankie. I'm glad to hear he's overseeing a Halo project, we haven't heard from him in about, what, a year now?
