I mean no one can make a Halo game better than Bungie. That would be like somebody else painting the Mona Lisa instead of Leonardo Da Vinci or someone besides J.K. Rowling writing the next Harry Potter book.

I mean come on. It's just like celebrities, once they get famous for a role, they don't only want to be known for that and so they start taking all these different, edgy, indie films and rather than keep their fame, they disappear into obscurity.

I don't see their hesitation either. Even if their next game is a masterpiece, which it probably will be, they will always be known for Halo.

I would love for a Bungie member to respond to this. I mean come on, do you guys hate swimming in piles of money or what?

I can't wait for Halo: Reach. It's getting me really excited and I hope the fact it will probably sell like 5 million copies on day one convince Bungie that they have to keep making Halo games.

I'm not putting down any other company that will make the game but I will make a bold prediction that it won't be as great as bungie would have made it and once a game doesn't live upto the standards, it's over.

I would have also added George Lucas and Star Wars to the analogy at the top but for some reason, people have been really hating on him and think he should stop making more movies.

The guys at 343 Industries will continue to create Halo games until the franchise is totally milked out. Sad but true.

But to answer your question, I'm not sure.

Bungie said that Halo 3 would be the last game in the Halo series. With that they meant the trilogy with Master Chief in it. So, even though Bungie has said that this will be their last game, one cannot be sure.

Possibly, but they did say that both H3 and ODST would be as well, but yes it's possible. I'm pretty sure that it won't be the last Halo game by far though, Microsoft aren't going to let go of something like that. And no, it's not because Microsoft are greedy bastards and all that, no publisher would.


No.
They never said ODST was their last game (Considering Reach was announced soon after, so they knew they were making a new Halo game) And with Halo 3 they said it was the last in the trilogy. They said nothing about spin-off stories.

This time 'round they said that Halo: Reach is there last Halo game, for the time being.

  • 11.21.2009 5:54 AM PDT

Ugh...

First on a BWU.. yeah, I'm cool.

ODST;MYTHIC Screenshot winner! One of the first to get their hands on the mythic map pack.

They have no plans for another Halo game after Reach.

Snip.

Actually, one Bungie member stated in a video (before the launch of Halo 3) that they "had DLC and a prequel planned for later". ODST and Reach respectively.

  • 11.21.2009 6:03 AM PDT

i heard in a interview with someone of bungie said that they are actually already busy with another halo,
and it would be cool if you do john's (master chief) parts of its training like: steal a pelican and fly with it home (some mission he had to get away from something, just did read it on some site)

Dude, why would Bungie make a RTS? Halo Reach will be a FPS.

i think that was in one of the weekly updates..... and john does (more or less) steal a pelican, but he, nor the other 67 trainees, fly it their AI teacher does

Why are you reading my signature? Who actually opens these things and reads them!

And as always, SEND ME A PM. Please. Or really bad things will happen to you.

I believe that in Ske7ch's post at HBO he said half the Bungie guys are working on Reach and half are working on something in a new universe.

What more to Halo is there? We know the beginning, the middle, and the ending of the war. 343 Industries is just going to make up some story for the new planet. We can't really go back any further, maybe to Harvest? That doesn't have a masked character in it though, and we all know Bungie hates letting us know who we are.

By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.

We know only an echo of the Halo timeline, there are events that are a hundred times bigger than those we experience in the games.

Take the Precursors for example, a race that grew to Trans-Sentient status, travelling through galaxies and being able to accelerate evolution itself.

Then there's the Forerunners, their rise to power and eventual 300 year war with the Flood.

Then there's the forming of the Covenant, the civil war of the San 'Shyuum where the Reformists left their home planet in the Dreadnaught after fighting with the Stoics.

There's so much we don't know yet.

OP - You're a dumbass with the reading comprehension skills of a second grader.


Can someone tell me what's wrong with these two, this made me LOL hard.

Halo Wars wasn't made by Bungie.

Yes but remember Bungie did'nt make that.

  • 11.21.2009 8:31 AM PDT

In another thread someone posted something by Ske7ch that said they were doing someting in a new universe.

  • 11.21.2009 8:33 AM PDT

I really hope they step away from the franchise. Don't get me wrong, Halo is one of, if not the best and most successful video games franchises in recent years. What I want is for them to make Reach the end-all be-all of Halo games. The best that will ever come (even though Microsoft will milk it 'till it's dry). I would really love to see what they can come up with outside of their crown jewel. I wouldn't worry about them slipping into obscurity, though; everyone will be very hyped to see what Bungie's next IP can do. All eyes will be on them.

  • 11.21.2009 9:16 AM PDT

well yes i heard when bungie split up with microsoft the deal was
they do 3 more games end it an d move to a new console

As much as I would love to see another Halo game, I think it would be good for Bungie to expand beyond just the Halo series. Halo is great and all, but after a while, making game, after game, after game, can get stagnate and thus losing the love and care that made the original series so great *Cough*Mario*Cough*Kingdom Hearts*Cough*Guitar Hero*cough*. Personally I would love to see them make a sequal/remake Oni. That game was AWESOME.
