Halo 3 is announced.
This is wonderful news. But why did we have to wait a year and half to hear that
Frankie said in one of his Weekly Updates that they had been working on halo 3 since November of 04, when halo 2 was released. Why the wait? That also means that it will have taken them more than two years to complete( Possibly 3 if Microsoft follows their november agenda. Xbox, halo, halo 2, xbox 360 have all been released in november). Then, there is also the distinct possibility that they are waiting until 2007 to use the movie to drive sales for the game, and vice-versa. They will both drive interest in eachother which equals sales for both the movie and game.. Then that equals xbox 360 sales. Considering Microsoft really missed out on Holiday 05 due to the moronic plan to launch worldwide within 3 weeks.. So now, they missed their big oppurtunity to capitilize on being the first next gen console out, they are going to try to recreate interest in the 360 once ps3 releases.. So that is my theory, does anyone agree?
