"2011 is the tenth anniversary of Halo, and we'll make sure that the fanbase, the userbase, and the community is energised with cool new content and fiction." - Frank O'Connor, (343 franchise development director and formerly of Bungie and OXM)

Now there has been much spectulation on what might 343 do for their franchise's 10th anniversary.

Halo CE rumors seem to be fading, as 343 seem to deny any thought of 2011 spin-off releases.

What will it be?

Additional content and on-going support for Reach?

Will it be Halo:Kinect?

There has been industry talk regarding MS, and 343 adopting a annual release model; in order to keep up with other very competetive, successful titles.
MS to adopt annual model
IGN report on Halo: Not Frequent Enough!

All I'm seeing so far this year is a lot of rumors, and talk about 2011 being a big year.

Will MS opportunize on their biggest frachise in 2011?

Or will we have to wait for H4 in 2012?

Don't worry, you're still your mom's favorite Bnet member.

It means don't just post this in the Reach forum because this forum has a low population.

the reason that i haven't ranked up anymore in H3 is simple.
if im general and lose a single game, i will get about 20 messages asking me how much i paid for the 50 on ebay.
if im brigadier, i would get messages saying, cant get a 50, noob?

i would love if there actually would be a CE remake since its my favourite game, but they should only do these changes:
- better graphic
- add matchmaking
- fix the vehicletouch of death

that would make it perfect.

when it comes to new fiction i would love to know what happened to gray and black team, since they are all a bunch of badasses.

I actually heard that 343 was resisting putting out a Halo game very year, due to the heads of it being ex-Bungie guys. If it was something like Halo Wars or ODST being put out in between the main games or something, I could live with that, but I don't want a Halo game cranked out every year, if I want the same year after year I'll just go play Call of Duty.

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

I'm 23, I have a house, dog, girlfriend, job and I have no interest in any fanboyism so if you're thinking about sending me a childish PM, don't be surprised when I don't call back.

Halo's 10th Anniv. What's it mean to you?


It means I feel really old, because I remember buying my new copy of Halo:Ce as if it was last week.

The reality is, it was a little bit longer than that....

A halo CE remake has been confirmed. Just search it in google.

Not offically. Not a sinlge site says it's confirmed by MS.

Joystiq is just saying it's supported by sources, and then supplies no sources.

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

I hope to God that M$ doesn't make it an annual release. I don't want M$ to milk Halo like CoD. Halo has distinct stories that need time to develop. I will hate M$ if they make Halo an annual release...

Well, it could be good.

I have no idea of the numbers of members at 343, but I assume it's a small-ish studio. That said, if it were a huge studio, the workload would be spread better and production of the same quality will be faster.

I hope they pull it off.

the annual release thing was shot down by Frankie awhile ago; it'll probably be ever 2 years, maybe.

And the Halo: CE remake was "confirmed" by Joystiq, though I'm not sure on that.

UWG Great group, you should check it out.

Is it just me? Or are the title and the body of the post unrelated? There's no telling what will happen, but if there starts to be annual Halo releases I'm going to bomb MS hq.

I'm thinking they want a Halo game every 2 years. Also, i sincerely doubt Halo 4 this year but maybe next year. They should announce it this year.
