I have to admit I find it kind of sad. Even from this preview trailer, a year and half before (i think) the game comes out, it’s billed as the FINISH. So much finality was unexpectedly unwanted. I found myself feeling very sad about it even as I watched it knowing that the fun I’d had with the series really was coming to an end.


What are your thoughts about it?

O...K... im just gonna ignore him and talk to you about the topic.

I actually do find it sad that this is the end of the halo franchise. HOWEVER, and this is a big HOWEVER, they did say that this is going to be the last HALO game. This may mean that they will create another game with the master chief, cortana etc.

alll we will need is bungie to come up with another awesome spin - off fps.. with a complex and deep story as they have given the halo "trilogy"
(i dont know if anyone has mentioned it is a trilogy yet)....

This wont be the end of Halo. it will be the end of MC. But theres so much uncovered, it would be cool for a real forerunner title to be released. showing us how the flood were contained etc. or what about pre covenant around the time the they fought each other. we could see exactly how the covenant was formed then......

It is the end of the current story arc, not the end of the Halo franchise. There's too much money still to be made.

They can always make prequels like the star wars series did and make the 1st and 3rd books a game so this might not be the end of all the halo products.

Subject: The end of the road is near my fellow Spartans

Each time someone stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope. That hope is three little numbers: 1 - 1 - 7.

There is hope in us all. We gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which we really stop to look fear in the face. We must do the thing which we think we cannot do; stand with the Master Chief and Finish this Fight!

A while ago I posted an emotional thread regardingthis topic and althought I made some people cry, it is true to state that we have invested emotions in this game like no other before and after it.

If you are like me then you would have read all the books, played all the games and in your own mind lived the life of the Master Chief every step of the way, from the first time we met him at school when Dr. Halsey picked him, growing up with his fellow Spartans, his first meeting with Cortana, his last battle on the Pillar of Autumn up until his last ever battle to save the beloved Earth as he has done so many countless times.

Yes, it will be sad to see him go, but he goes with honour and we know how much he will have deserved and earned his peacefull death that only befits a hero. Many of you will regard John as a one man hero, a man that wanted to be a lone cowboy, to save the Earth. I can tell you right now that is not what John is.

He is a soldier with the responsibility of protecting the Earth and along with his fellow Spartans they had a mission to do just that, little did he know that his battle will take him so long, and push him to the end of his limits. Thats what John really is, a soldier that never says die, a man that does not know how to lose.

Sad, aint the word for it, there no words that come to mind to express what I will feel when I see John exhale his last ever breath, but what will come to mind are all those close calls that he had and how it has all bulit up for the final epic battle that he be in.

Oh yeah, it will be epic, cause all of his Spartans died doing something heroic, something that defied the odds but suceeded they did and they died for it.

I expect the Master Chief to be no different, I expect him to die the most heroic death of them all, all whilst saving Earth, as he always has.

Master Chief it was an honour sharing your life with you.

I understand wanting more Halo games, but has Bungie ever done anything beyond its trilogies, or singles. I'm not old enough to have played most of them, and had only become interested in games for the first Halo, but acording to the achives, they don't go beyond the trilogy. Besides, the Halo trilogy wont end at the games, there's still the movies, and games are starting to be recreated, so don't be surprised if they bring the Halo trilogy back for another spin in ten or twenty years, like an aniversary thing (Hint if Bungie is reading), or they may make new games to match the movies.

If they don't do this, than they could always let Josef Staten keep writing and we'll have many more good games to last, mixed with Marty O'donnals (Excuse the spelling) music there will definately be plenty of thrilling and fun games.

And to the guy who said he'd keep playing for 5 or 6 years, is that it? I am never getting rid of Halo 3. It will hang in my bedroom when no more people play it.

One more thing. If it ends at game 3, than at least we know it's gonna be one kickass game that we'll never forget.

(10:19:49 PM) Scruss: oh and pezza, i saw what you did to that cat
(10:20:17 PM) Pezza: You were the one with the video camera breathing heavily. Of course you saw.

I don't think its sad, this way Bungie will be able to go on to better things. I can't wait to see what they've got cooked up for us after they finish this Trilogy.

I totally feel you. This being the finale is very disappointing. I was hoping they could make a game that told the tale of the Forerunners and let you play the story when they first encountered the Flood and constructed the Halos. There are still so many unanswered questions in the story.
