So, ideally, if Bungie never sided with Microsoft, they would still be working on Halo?
No.
If Bungie had never sided with Microsoft, Bungie would have been bankrupt and out of business.
It's all in the ViDoc.
;)Assuming they wasn't then they probably would have stopped at Halo 3, like they stopped making marathon games at marathon infinity, although there are many factors that imply that the Halo games wouldn't have been as popular. I mean, the Halos would have a far smaller budget, they would have had enough time to finish Halo 2 properly and all the glitches and whatnot would be missing so a lot of the players would no longer have that as their fan favourite.
(I mean, just look at all the superbouncing clans there once was.)
So that means the game would be less popular, it'd no longer be "the best original Xbox game", it would just be another game, then the game would probably be multi-platform which would bring in far more players but have a far less unified community, because of all the "Mac Vs PC", "Xbox Vs PS3", etc threads, which would disallow the community from making great things because of these differences and disputes. I mean imagine if everyone from every machinima had a choice between four platforms to get the game on, do you think that everyone who participated in the video would buy the exact same platform? And in the scenario that they did, or if they got multi-platform, would they have met up with the filmer/writer?
I suppose predicting how popular Halo would be in a alternate reality based off certain conditions is difficult, maybe it'd be better off, or maybe Bungie would just be another company, not the makers of the legendary franchise that is "Halo".
