Bungie didn't just "walk away" from the Halo series; they were pushed away by M$.
No, when Bungie was a part of Microsoft they developed the Halo series, but when Bungie split from Microsoft, Microsoft retained the rights to the Halos series, so any game Halo related that Bungie made would have to be approved by Microsoft. The stories complete, and Bungies been tethered to the Halo series for about 10 years now, its time for them to move on to new things.
^ Pretty much this. Microsoft didn't push Bungie away at all, Bungie wanted to leave and stretch their wings and do something new, but they couldn't take Halo with them as the IP belongs to Microsoft.
