Subject: Hold me!

First let me say if i have posted this in the wrong forum then plaease may the MODS. move it rather then delete/lock it.

secondly please forgive my spelling/grammar/punctuation.
(also things usually end up lost in translation so if you dont understand what im attempting to say please say and i'll try to simplerfy what im saying)

here go's my concerns are this. despite really looking forward to HALO 4 i'm also concerned that we may not yet need another Halo game let me explain.

Halo 3 ended on a suspenseful, climax leaving the door open for a new game or book(s) as to the chief's next battle(s)"me" i was happy letting my imagination run away with me as to what finally happened to the chief and cortana but now we have to put our faith into 343I to deliver a grand new set of games( not saying they won't but the tide is against them)the way i see it the new trilogy has only 2 realistic yet both unhappy ways to end.

1) the chief goes through his epic struggle/battles with the new mysterious enemy becomes triumphant etc and ends up stranded in space agian like Halo 3 which obviously is clitche as it's happened already

2)is that the chief goes through these battles etc comes out triumphant until the very end were he Die's/sacrafices himself to stop the ancient evil etc. both of which i think would upset a lot of fans etc and possibly stop a few from ever returning to the serie's games/books etc.

lets be honest the chief doesn't seem the "retirement" kinda guy to me he's a born soldier and would probably fight as long as he breathe's. please do not insult me this is merely my opinion on the matter and would welcome hearing yours.

thank you for reading.

While portions of your thread belong here (Halo 3 fiction), anything Halo 4 related is not part of the Bungie Universe as 343i will be making Halo 4....but it isn't the biggest deal.

You are most definitely entitled to your opinion, but I am rather looking forward to Halo 4 because as seen in the novel Halo: Cryptum and the Data Pads in Halo Reach, the Halo Universe is far bigger than we anticipated. I believe that there are still a lot more stories to tell, including ones involving Master Chief.

Thank you for your reply sadly i have yet to buy cryptum but will be doing so as soon as pay day rolls around lol im not agains't 343I not in the least i am hoping the new talent will make for some very interesting story/lore etc while any bungie members "frankie"? that have stayed with the franchise will keep it somewhat familiar to the roots of halo that we all love.

Exactly! I firmly believe that Frankie and the rest of the 343i team will make a terrific game. Frankie has already stated that they wont deviate from the Halo's roots, they just want to expanded upon it and evolve, which any good franchise needs to do in my opinion. (unlike COD, oh and I don't hate COD, I actually own every game).

Also, as soon as you can afford it, I would really recommend Halo Cryptum because there are a number of startling revelations that will blow your mind.

Head Down/ Chin Up!

I have to admit the only way I can see this new trilogy ending is with the Chiefs death!

Retirement just dont sit well with me!
