Subject: Do you think Halo will end with Reach

I thought there where tons of Halo rings because it had to kill all sentien life in the known universe. Also when the Halo rings fired why doesn't the massive explosion destroy the Halo ring seeing as how it's basically one big handgrenade.

It's nothing like a handgrenade... At all.

It fires a magical charge of magical energy that kills all sentient life needed to sustain the Flood.

HALO is starting to become the new Star Wars for a lot of people out there.



except for episode 3 the new star wars movies were not very good and especially episode 1 has forever tainted the entire series. (episode 2 was forgettable)

Bungie probably does not want to run the series into the ground, they want to keep Halo as a classic forever and to do this, they have to make sure that they quit while they are ahead, not to mention that the story has pretty much run it's course.


In fact bungie parted from microsoft probably because microsoft wouldn't let them do anything besides work on halo, so the fact that they left suggests they want to move onto a new project.

Also, after Reach comes out Bungie will have spent a decade making one series of games, I don't blame them for wanting to move on.


So in no way do I fault bungie for wanting to quit while they are ahead and start a new genre changing game.

THAT BEING SAID,

Microsoft owns the IP rights to Halo, they can do whatever they want with it, including make crap like Halo Wars... so microsoft will find developers to make new Halo games until it becomes unprofitable.

its on the threshold right now all it takes is for reach to be like odst

This could be Bungie's final addition to the Halo series, but not the end of Halo. After Reach is released, the creation of Halo games is in the hands of 343 Industries.

  • 10.21.2009 3:14 PM PDT

Lol some people...

Dont knock bungie for leaving the Halo name behind and moving on. They say they make games they want to play, and if they want to play something else, they will make it instead of halo. However alot of people dont know that they claimed they werent making a Halo 3 be decided to do it anyway.

There will be many more Halo Games coming out, this is known already. 343 Studios is already making a "Halo 4" and since 343 is made up of old Bungie workers, im pretty sure it will still be good, especially since Frank o'Connor is in charge.

They are releasing a Anime serise soon (Eh) and Steven Speilberg is now making the movie as of 2months ago. They are making another book, I believe its called Halo Evolutions which should be out in less then a year if i remember right, and they are adding more comic books to the franchise. Microsoft themselves said they are going to make the Halo Franchise last and add in new stuff till atleast 2015, and probably further on.

So hush my halo child, all is fine in our world.

Post to everyone who complains about Reach instead of shutting up and playing something else. http://initiativedesignz.webs.com/HaloReachStuff/Fixn.jpg

Its definatly not the LAST Halo game- but its supposivky Bungie's last Halo. I have doubt but I trust 343 studios to not screw up the next/last Halo game since its branched off bungie ((meaning alot of the ppl working there & are in-charge were exBungie ppls))

Dude too much options, a simple yes no or i don't know would suffice...

Please tell me you're dumb and you don't know what the hell you're saying :(

  • 10.21.2009 4:32 PM PDT

To the people saying it might turn out like Guitar Hero...
I would've assumed that too....

If Bungie wasn't the one developing Halo.
Bungie's just too good of a developer.

Halo is the Star Wars of our age.

'nuff said.


Star Wars succsess was very much the result of it's time so nope. These days there just isn't room for another "Star Wars", its just too much out there competing for your attention.

Oh, and Halo needs a movie before they really can dominate the marked, you know, like bigtime.

Exalted is considered "the highest" because you can't get any bans or warnings of any kind for quite a long time, which is harder than just being a member for a long time.

We're looking at at least another 7 years just of game content from Bungie, MS and 343. That will make the Haloverse a 15 year enterprise at that point.

Mario and Star wars have lasted much longer and I honestly think Halo has more staying power.

"This is for HARVEST...that's right I got a long memory"
--Sgt. Avery Johnson, Firefight

I don't think its the end. Too many stories in the Haloverse, countless possibilities. I'd love to see what happened the Elites AFTER Halo 3. What happens to the Chief? or even Cortana going Rampant...

No it won't end. Look at all the idiots who bought ODST because it had the Halo name on it. MS owns Halo and they'll milk it for all its worth

impossible is just a word

I love the story of Halo and i dont want the story to end but in our days no one cares for story just destroying this is why i dont like so many modern war games
you cant put a great story that immerses the player like you can with a Sci-fi or fantasy game and yes Star wars is a good example come paired to black hawk down
SW makes a universe BHD just is about survival yes in know there films but still

Your making Microsoft sound bad here. Microsoft let Bungie split off with them taking a minority stakehold in the company. Bungie wasn't like just one day hey lets leave. No their is a mutual relationship working out with Bungie and microsoft, a good one that works.

  • 10.24.2009 6:44 AM PDT

Im sure they'll make a whole new trilogy out of that one legendary planet.

no, reach wont be it but theres only about 2, or 3 more halos left. maybe a contact harvest, or first strike, or a search for master chief


Umm.. this is about the whole Halo series. When 343 Industries takes over after Reach read this.

If Bungie is planning on ending Halo, then Reach would be the perfect game to end it with. The book had a really realistic and interesting feel of Halo. Playing it as the last Halo game would be amazing. It's the best place to end it in my opinion.

Bungie Is quitting the Halo franchise after Reach. 343 Industries is taking over and look at my thread above your comment. Its not the end of the series, In fact its just the beginning!
