We’re flawed because we want so much more. We’re ruined because we get these things and wish for what we had.

Hell no, have you been reading the books lately?
Halo4 is directly tied to them, unlike the previous Halo game that took a massive sh1t on the books. *looks at Reach*

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

I think if Bungie continued the series, they would have destroyed it. Now, I think it's in better hands from what I've seen.

I think 343 will do great things for the story but idk where multiplayer will go. Idk if they have done any games before this. Its the first i have heard of the company. Then agian i don't think microsoft would let 343 take over halo unless they were completly sure that they could handle it.

343i is a new company specifically made to work on Halo.

I think 343 will do the opposite of destroy it

Your one stop shop for all of 343's fabulous errors and ridiculous notions in the Halo lore.

Depends. Some hints and rumors about Halo 4 I don't like are present, but I don't take them all seriously. That said, 343 has never made a game on their own, so I don't know how they'll do.

  • 09.23.2011 3:29 PM PDT

United Armed Forces

I think they'll deliver a masterpiece story-wise, but we have literally seen 0 things that they have made gameplay-wise.


Speculation is stupid at this point.

  • 09.23.2011 3:34 PM PDT

I agree with the last poster about speculation. Nobody is really giving 343 a chance. In all honesty, the more you guys suspect they will desetroy the franchise, the more they will grow dissatisfied with it and want to scrap the whole thing together thanks to silly side-comments and pessimism.

Think about it. Would you want to take up a project everyone assumes you already suck at doing?

  • 09.23.2011 3:45 PM PDT

By the way, I have faith in 343 as they have shown ample devotion already to Halo.

The amount of apathy they are giving the books worries me. Don't get me wrong, Cryptum and Evolutions are great, but the constant re-releases of the old books filled with more errors, such as the 2542 date in The Fall of Reach and the Visual Guide saying Halo 3: ODST didn't have an AR in it, make me very skeptical about the care they put into projects.

Heck, they released "Definitive Editions" of the three first books AFTER they re-released them before Reach came out. Yet nothing really charged. To me, it just seems like a cash grab move.

  • 09.23.2011 3:48 PM PDT

I seem to believe what ever staff are doing the books are:

1) Not very well informed of the Halo Universe

2) Never really got in depth with the games

3) Have poor proofreading skills


Then again it could be all three.

Do you know why they released Definitive Editions?
No you don't.
Silence.

Do you know why the error was made?
No you don't.
Silence.

1. Nope. Hence why I said SEEMS like a cash grab to ME.
2. Because someone at 343 fails at proof reading.

that would be destroying it... so no.

By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.

Here's an out-there, ludicrous suggestion:

How about we wait until Halo CEA and Halo 4 are released before we start jumping to conclusions?

  • 09.23.2011 4:17 PM PDT

Death to rank junkies.

Well it's obvious that Bungie didn't know what they were doing with Reach, so things can't get much worse.

I'm still more than willing to have my doubts. Just because you worry about something doesn't mean you think it will suck. I was perfectly worried about the Watchmen movie, yet I loved it. CEA's terminals look good, but Halo 4 is going to be my deciding opinion on 343.

When people say that, things tend TO get worse. Careful what you wish for.

1. The publisher demands it.
2. Error on publisher's end, not 343i.

And yet it all happens under their, 343i's, watch. Blaming Microsoft and Tor only goes so far.

It's not like if they're going to have a 343i guy over there 24/24 365/365.

I would expect the folks at 343 to know Halo 3: ODST had an AR in it. And I find it odd you act like 343 has no say in any of this.

  • 09.23.2011 4:41 PM PDT

343 has already betrayed my trust by destroying the halo universe with halo wars. They don't know anything about halo and one of there top imployes is the one who made the defining
choice to take dual wielding out of the games. proving my point since when did master chief have a jet pack?
they're going to turn halo into a game like cod, ok gameplay but a -blam!- story and multiplayer.
