I know that theres a lot of excitement going on with Halo 3, but I thought I'd just point something out:

Quote from the update: "Bungie announces Halo 3, the third and *final* game in the Halo Trilogy"

Thats right guys. Halo 3 is the last halo related game we're going to see for a while... maybe ever. You know what? I really don't blame bungie. Halo is their most successful game series, but they've been dealing with it for 8 years now. They want a change after this, so bring on the epic ending to the storyline!

So long as they don't rush it (Hear that whiners? Quiet, all of you!), Bungie will pull through with yet another great game, and a worthy ending to a beloved series. I can't wait to see what they've got up their developmental sleeves.

Unfortunately, I'll wait to see if Halo 3 is the final installment after all. It seemed like Halo 2, in its beginning years, was going to be a finale. Microsoft owns Bungie, so if Microsoft wants another Halo for their next "big game," they'll make them make another.

IOW, I'll wait until I see the actual facts.

I'm mainly pointing it out because in a few months we're going to see the beginnings of Halo 4 related topics (don't ask why, somebody is going to do it). They're telling us now they're going to end it with this game and they're going to work on something else for a change. It's not a shock, its expected. But the random kiddies who think that bungie will be making halo games until the end of time will be whining.

I gotta get me a 360 this summer :)

no more halo games. no more halo related. if there were going to be halo related games they wouldnt say it was the third and final. i think they will keep the same style. like fps, futuristic but no more halo related period

To be honest to stop the halo series would be the worst move ever. I would expect the ending of this halo game to be another cliff hanger. Like the latest Alien vs Predator game. Something like that, and i believe that there will probably be a 4 year gap as they tell everyone oh btw we're working on another project. Pimps at sea 2.

[Edit]

Also Bungie never said it was, IGN said it was.

As I said, don't blame them. They WANT to do something else. You may play the halo games, but they are the ones who turn into work everyday to create something halo related. At this point, they want to finish off the series as they're running out of ideas.

I didn't say that there wouldn't be another halo related game I'm just saying, they're trying to tell us that we shouldn't be surprised that their next game won't be another installment of the halo series, and im just trying to brace people for the future. ;)

That sucks... O well. Maybe it would be like the starwars movies, They released the last three first and the the first three. I highly doubt it though.

Then again Bungie could make a game based on the forerunners and you could play as them or smething along those lines...
