So now that Reach has come out and Bungie has officially stated that they are leaving the Halo franchise to 343, who else agrees that they will buy the next Halo but not like it as much as any of the others due to the lack of Bungie (retorical)? And now if you have agreed to that, go to here and become a member.

I'm making you a promise here, 343 will give us a game much better than Halo 3. All Ex-Staff that worked on Halo: CE and Halo 2. A few from Gears of War, Assassins Creed, Fallout and Call of Duty(Sadly) along with Frankie! What more can you ask for?

It won't be annual, and Frankie's running the show, so yes.

(Bungie > 343i)

They'll do just fine. I'm sure that whatever they've got cooking up at 343 will be good.

I'm rather optimistic about 343. I have faith that they'll deliver good games.

Bungie never gave the same exact experience twice. There's one thing about that, though. Every experience, in my opinion, was amazing. All the way from Halo: Combat Evolved to Halo: Reach. I'm highly optimistic about what 343 has in store for us.

I have been on Bungie.net for quite a while. I just made this profile because I wanted to change my B.net username.

We shall see, i hope they give us something even more satisfying than Bungie has done for it's fans. It's going to be tough but we should all give 343 a shot a glory too.

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

Let's hope they keep it as Halo as possible, though. Since, the staff has experience with a lot of other games like you said.

Why wouldn't Steve Downes be involved? It's not like he's a member of bungie or anything. I'm sure if 343 asked he'd reprise his role as the chief.

I think 343 will do great. They can't afford to ruin the series and I think with some of them being ex-Bungie they must know what they're doing.
Halo Legends was (in my opinion) a good start for them and if they can keep it Halo-ish than it should be fine.
If you don't agree with me about Legends, don't hate. I simply thought it was good.

i agree with everything there, the people that do hate on halo legends are most likely people who think it screwed up canon but i think that was simply because of the japanese anime. 343 wrote the base story and it got changed a little along the way.

Does anyone even look at B.net sigs?

Impossible.

I've played all the Halo games. Halo 3 was the best imo. CE was inovative and I loved it. But H3 was special.

Yes, I'm a girl, stop asking.

Impossible? I definitely wouldn't say that. Nostalgia aside, I believe Halo 1 and 2 had better campaigns. Halo 3 just kinda kicked the Arbiter to the side and the Flood didn't have that creepy factor that they had in Halo 1. It was just kind of like, "Oh great, more Flood, we know exactly what they are now".

343 I think will make a great game. They've got a lot of talented people on the team who love and care about the story and who also have a lot of experience making games. I'm not saying Bungie didn't, but look what happened with Halo: Reach vs. The Fall of Reach. Some of the Canon went right out the window.

I don't know guys. I mean I understand where you all are coming from but, the main thing I love about Halo is the storyline and underlying universe built around it. Bungie has put so many great things into their Halo games, and Marathon also, that have developed into an amazing piece of art. When you step back and look at the whole picture (this is coming from a guy who has read all the books, owns Legends on Blu-ray, and has looked in almost every crevice of the Halo universe for more info) they have made something that you could spend years understanding. Just think of all the theories of the infamous number 7 in all of their games (John S-117, 2552=77, etc.) I am just saying that without Bungie their wont be that "Halo" feel, if you will. I mean I am going to miss just the small humor that they put in their updates every now and then haha. But lets branch off to what do you think the next game is going to be about? Will it be about Thom? Or possibly Carter? Or will they expand past 3 and show John arriving back on Reach(<- that's mine)?

  • 01.31.2011 3:35 PM PDT

I think they should burry and forget Halo: Reach story... it just created too many paradoxs and plot holes. What about a Ghost of Onyx game, or just missions the S-IIs undertook while they were alive. In my opinion 343 can only do better than Reach.

Your one stop shop for all of 343's fabulous errors and ridiculous notions in the Halo lore.

Well I will miss the lack of Humor from Bungie, but truthfully most of the creators that actually made the Halo Canon work for 343i. Just give them a little time and you'll see what their capable of.

  • 01.31.2011 4:30 PM PDT

I think they will do a good job I have faith in them.

I played Halo when it first came out and Halo 3 is my favourite. It's the Halo game I've had the most fun playing.

Now there's a problem if people think Halo is the best Bungie has ever done lol

  • 01.31.2011 4:32 PM PDT

Haha this is true. But truthfully Halo: Reach was a learning experience for them. They tried something different by enabling players to have different advantages over others with the armor abilities. But I will agree that Reach did just create alot of paradoxes in the plot. If I had to pick a favorite personally, it would be 3 because of the way they really put their time and effort into what a video game needs to be, and that is the story. If they were to make one where it shows John returning to Reach after it had been rebuilt and him finding Six's helmet in the ground; well this would just be the best thing ever in my opinion haha.
