Subject: 343 studios?

Ive heard that reach is the last halo bungie will make and 343 studios will be making new halos
I was wondering if this was true because kotor was a graet game but kotor 2 was made by a different company and turned out to be not as good as kotor

whats kotor

Don't worry. Some people from Bungie are working at 343 studios. Its just a splinter company. It will do fine.

...And what do you mean Kotor 2 wans't as good? I could break people's spines!

Kotor = Knights of the old republic.

I just want to let you know that 343 Studios WILL not make games. They're all about Halo information specializing in comics, books, podcasts, etc.

It's actually 343 Industries and it's an umbrella studio for the Halo franchise. What it's doing now is maintaining reasonable consistency for the Halo universe throughout the various projects and expanding the Halo franchise. It's also got the talent appropriate for a video game developer so its safe to guess that 343 will eventually start making its own games.

And KotOR II was amazing, but a little rushed.

Im not saying kotor 2 was crap just not as good as the original it felt there was something missing

This. They will help companies create Halo games. But they themselves will not be making them.

I liked KotOR II so much more than the original. The original's story just wasn't engrossing to me and I never could finish, but I've played KotOR II at least 10 times despite the glitchyness.

Pretty much, like I said earlier its the umbrella studio for the Halo franchise. It's got some game development talent among its employees but so far its mostly providing resources for other studios.

well if 343 made kotor then im more than happy to see them to take it over and to the person who posted that halo wars suck im sorry that you dont know how to play a game that requires some thought and not random button smashing

  • 10.18.2009 10:24 AM PDT

343 Industries will be making halos. I really don't get why they'd hire people like Ryan Payton (mgs4 producer) or leading engine designers from gearbox. They'd more so be about writers and web designers if they were just maintaining it.

They're using KOTOR as an analogy. I don't believe it to be that proper though.

Anyway, i enjoyed halo wars but it wasn't up to par with other halo games. Good, enjoyable, but not awesome.

  • 10.18.2009 10:54 AM PDT

343 didnt make kotor..bioware developed it and it was published by lucas arts..343 had nothing to do with it.lol then when it came to a sequal it was handed to obsidian so bioware could work on bigger things such as Mass Effect

and kotor2 was a good game but know where near as good as the first.the story didnt have that wow factor that the original did.i liked how the did include carth and bastilla tho even if it wasnt till the end.but my most favorite adition had to be HK-47 bringing him back was a very very good choice

343 industries which is a company designed by microsoft to continue the halo francise and most likely will eventually create halo 4

The universe is probably littered with the one-planet graves of cultures which made the sensible economic decision that there's no good reason to go into space--each discovered, studied, and remembered by the ones who made the irrational decision.

keep in mind 343 is behind "Halo legends" and look where that is taking the series? We get spartan robots, spartan gundams, Spartans getting chased by dinosaurs. They get to call what is and isnt cannon after Reach. Its only a matter of time before this game gets milked of its story to no end. Halo is superposed to be a mature grim story, now we got This

I'll hang my hat up on halo after reach, this will be the end of the story for me.

Snip.

That episode (with the t rex and the giant Brute) is a satire view on the Halo universe and is non canonical. Yeah, I was worried about Halo when I first saw that too...
