I am sorry maybe its just me who hangs with intelligent people who read books.
Lets see how fun a halo game is where there is about 100 people left on a planet and all those 100 people are hiding from a giant laser that is glassing their planet. That is what Halo Reach would have been like 2-3 weeks into the glassing. And since all of the UNSC has pulled back to earth there is no chance of survival at all. So the game youre proposing has a couple of scared marines maybe spartan that lost his nerve and hid from the covenant or how about a couple of villagers with some guns that get captured and you are continuously tortured throughout the game and there is no way to escape because you are surrounded by millions of covenant. This sounds really fun and very creative I'm sure that maybe someone more creative than bungie will take your proposal for that game and throw it into a fireplace.
Millions of fans play halo? Really? Go check right now see how many people are on Halo:Reach if its in the 7 figures category i will send you a million ms points. As much as we would like to think there are millions of people there is not. Lets be generous and say 300,000 people are on halo:Reach right now and lets be ridiculous and say 100,000 people are on Halo 3 and another 100,000 are on halo wars. That is 500,000 still not in the millions. Last time i checked there were 156,976 halo Reach players on bungie day this year. Bungie Day! that is when every single halo player is on reach at one time and unfortunately that is not millions. Last time i checked there were 16,000 give or take on halo 3 now and i have never seen halo wars above 11,000 people.
Its not forcing people you dont have to read the book if you buy the game. You have to eat your vegetable if your going to get candy to follow your analogy. Besides it would be a 70$ combination and not the 60$ version where you can just get the game. So you would still get the game alone if you wanted it that way. and as i said before ghosts of onyx is an amazing book and if you dont hang out with people who can read you may wanna look at yourself before criticizing other people
Why am I ignorant and arrogant? I know what im talking about otherwise why would i even be on the forums talking to people like you who want to argue against a money making strategy that would make the fanbase up to millions of people. Because you dont have to be a FPS fan to love halo books because halo books are so in depth and detailed and have some of the best stories I have ever read. So if somebody isnt a fan of FPS's picks up ghosts of onyx im confident that they would at least try out the game to see if they like it. Which would in turn make more money.
When exactly did i say fans dont spend that much money? If you looked over my post instead of just COPY........PASTE maybe you would have realized i didnt even say that. Again the deal would be Halo4=60$ Halo4w/ghosts of onyx and a flaming helmet or something=65$-70$.
And you think majority of the world is intelligent? i have a higher IQ then my old math tech.
The game could have been about the skirmishes the UNSC were having with the covenant during those last weeks and probably worked up to buying the spartans time at CASTLE base. you ether haven't read FS or it has been awhile.
you need to check how much halo reach sold and divide that buy 60 and you will see how many people bought the game. i just did it and i was right.
70 dollars just for the game and book? thats really going to make people pre-order it.

You see grey 101 casual fans dont spend as much money so why not attempt to convert them and if my plan was followed than they wouldnt be casual anymore they would be hardcore gamers
yet they have an xbox, controller, several games (which normally cost 60 bucks), halo games, a tv, and internet if they play online?
yet they don't spend money?
