A couple of "hints" have already been made...
The Halo series is being referred to as a "trilogy", somewhat indicating that there will be 3. However, a statement has been made saying that this is (para) the end of this storyline arc. A good storyline contains arcS...which maybe a hint of the whole Halo saga going into a different direction in the future. Example, the Star Wars movies were a trilogy...we saw the shows but knew that what was viewed on the screen was just the "meat and potatoes" of a much larger tale. Many different angles spawned off that trilogy (take the storylines made for the Dark Trooper / SW games. Still the same universe, ultimate plot and story line but different charactors and sub-plots). From other stuff I've read, the Halo universe goes much deeper than the games we know and the novels we've read...ie the apparent tie-in to Bungie's Marathon.
Sooooo...do I think this is the end of the Halo experience? No way, Bungie and MS aren't going anywhere for a while and they recognize they have a hot potato here with this franchise. The story(s) will continue...
