What I mean is, When the first Halo dropped, it was alright, It made a lot of good waves in the gaming world.
Halo 2 was explosive. Shut down other game's releases like they were nothing. Halo 3 did the same thing. So did Reach to an extent, but will Halo 4 have the same effect? I don't think so. We've seen just about everything the game has, and probably could offer. 343 has two choices, Stay just like Halo 1 to 3, or make a change like Reach and we all know how people respond to change.
It's a nearly impossible road to take, the series is old, it's no longer fresh. Only thing they really can do is up the graphics and attempt to make the series fresh again.
Oh and did anyone see the date? Holiday 2012? This makes me believe this game will be released with the "Xbox 720" to boost sales. Just like what they did with Halo 3.
Halo 4 might not sell as well as the other games 'initially' due to the damage bungie created with the abomination of Halo Reach... a great example of how the might bungie has fallen.
Halo 1 and 2 were simply masterpieces. I felt Halo 3 started to show the signs that Bungie had reached its height, still it had waaaay better multiplayer than Reach.
Of course as we have learned, most of the lead developers in Halo 1 and 2 are part of 343, and that just gives me great confidence that Halo 4 could be a real success, the trailer certainly confirms it. I simply cannot wait, Thank you bungie for giving up on the series and not producing any future games like Reach.
