To me, Halo has seemed like a money maker since the the moment I beat Halo 2. "Sir, finishing this fight" or whatever, proving that they were already planning on a Halo 3 in the development stages of Halo 2, where as Combat Evolved was (or at least felt) more like its own unique thing that was made just to be what it is without profit being such a serious factor.
Kinda like how Pirates of the Carribean: Curse of the Black Pearl is agreed by most to be the best of the series, and it too was made without a sequel in mind, and what do you know; the end of the second film is a cliffhanger, just like the end of Halo 2. Although Halo 3 wasn't planned from the beginning Halo 2 was the part where the series started being a money maker, but hey, if so many people brought Halo CE and wanted more, why not give them more? If people want to buy toys and limited editions and whathaveyou, why not give it to them? I mean, they're the ones that want them. You don't have to buy it, supply and demand and whathaveyou.
Anyway apparently the trilogy was supposed to end at Halo 2, but because of the time left in developement and the amount they could get done, etc. Then Halo 2 became Halo 2 and 3.
