Subject: What could possibly make the Halo franchise more amazing?

I was just thinking the other day about how Bungie would possibly top Halo 3 in the amount of new content in Halo: Reach- I'm talking about Forge, Theater, four-player Xbox LIVE co-op, campaign scoring, *breathe* greater character customization including unlockable armor peices, equipment, community File Sharing, and internet stat viewing. *Deep breaths*...now, we all know that this is going to be Bungie's last Halo game, so it's pretty easy to asume that they would want to "go out with a bang".

Now, how though? How can they top that, and add even more the this franchise just like Halo 2 and Halo 3 did? What do you think?

A good movie which seems to be put on hold because no one can come to an agreement.

I'd rather they argue about it than make it terrible though. (I still hope that they make it, but only if it's awesome)

well if you looked at doom, the movie was terrible. but if the almighty bungie crew directed the entier halo movie, then it would be awesome instead of usinng actors, they should make the movie witht3D animation that looks very, very, very lifelike. like in beowulf.

Beowulf was an aweosome movie I wouldn't say life like grafix of win though.

But yes they should focus on a movie. Like insted of directors arguing they get bungie to tell them what to do.

No doubt. Doom was terrible. The halo movie has to be like no other movie has been before...

Last Refuge - Operation Phoenix is in effect. From the ashes, we will rise.

What could possible make the Halo franchise more amazing? Why, isn't another game good enough!?

~the falcon doesn't hunt just to kill, but to survive~

i think a darker, more emotional campaign would be great. with halo 3 the ads made it seem like it was going to be just that, but then it ended up being the worst campaign of the franchise.

reach needs to be emotional, epic, and give a great sense of hopelessness along with characters players can connect with, and showing the emotion in them.

On the subject of forge-- I want to be able to set up simple mechanical set pieces like a draw bridge, I want hallway/corridor stamps, I want to be able to use NATAL to upload images/textures onto walls (because a bunch of brown walls gets confusing), I want tree, grass, snow, etc stamps, and I want to be able to deform the land (as you can in Far Cry 2).

And I want mode based forums on Xbox Live for sharing, searching for, and rating forged maps in Halo Reach.

In the days of old, there were legends of a land long lost to time. This land was known as Ranna'Mor. Ranna'Mor was said to contain in its borders 7 warriors. These warriors had once unleashed a veritable hell upon the ancient world, until they were locked away. My name is Toriad, and I am one of those warriors. Our return is approaching. Do not run away, do not cower in fear; take solace in your final days, for that is all we can do. -Legend of Ranna'Mor

Well, besides new armor permutations, I wouldn't mind seeing...God, there's so much already I'm not sure what else.

Thank you for finding a Halo-related use for Natal that isn't stupid and would mess gameplay up! I don't want it in the actually gameplay, hell no, but Forge would be awesome to use it in!
