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

I love you

How do you know? Have you seen some top secret footage of the game that nobody else has? No seriously, I would love to see it. How do you know they won't make a game like we've never seen before? How do you know they won't make the best Halo game to date? You don't, so just wait for footage before you can judge.

343i will never be the same as bungie they can never make a "halo game" R.I.P halo


Agreed, just like 343 can't make SUCH a GREAT game like...wait for it....HALO REACH. ONLY bungie could make such a GREAT game like reach, since they are GREAT and PERFECT and do NOT make ANY mistakes, UNLIKE 343.

Until I know the story of Halo 4 I'm going to assume 343 is milking Halo.

How can you say that when we have seen nothing from them ( aside from a few books)?

Personally I think 343i are going to kill it. I'm staying reserved but my gut feel is they're doing crazy good things over there.

Halo legends, 3 terrible books and a very lazy Halo CEA

You are judging a game developer on those things? Legends had some good shorts like the duel and origins, the books they have released have been decent and CEA was not really all their work. They just cleaned up CE and added some stuff in, they didn't make a whole new game. As many users here pointed out, there was not as much closure as one might think in Halo 3. Halo 4 was inevitable. I will reserve judgment until they actually release a game.

Halo legends was terrible, way too cheesy and contradicted canon. The 2 forerunner novels contradict the Halo 3 terminals and they were kinda stupid Glasslands was written by an author who knows nothing of Halo, though thats not my MAJOR problem with the book,my problem was the story.
So based on Halo legends and 3 poor quality novels i can see where 343i is going with the story and what they are doing with it. You cant really call 343I a game developer, they are more of a Halo milking machine with a special child (cant use the R word) aka Frankie at the helm.

Also 343 keeps contradicting and changing canon, so based on all they have done i can be sure that Halo 4 will be a failure (expect to the kids who would buy ANYTHING with a halo label on it)

I will agree with you there, the quality of Legends was all over the place.

In the intro to Cryptum, Bornstellar says that Forerunner history is excessively convoluted. The terminals and the novels are canon but the events may not have happened exactly as portrayed. Plus, the terminals take place around the firing of the Halos. They have not yet gotten to that point in the trilogy because the books occur before the terminals. There is still plenty of time for Bear to tie the books with the terminals.

Glasslands had its ups and downs, if you would like to discuss them at length feel free to create a thread about it.

I think you should wait until they actually release a game before you judge all their efforts. There is a difference between a good retcon and a bad one. Sometimes canon might need some rewriting.
