Does it really effect your experience with the predecessor once a sequal comes out? People act like its hurting them in some way.No, it doesn't harm the previous game and it doesn't directly harm me in any way. I just think it's sad that a studio can't come up with new ideas. I want variety and innovation in the games I play. Sure, it's NICE to play a new version of a game with slightly better graphics and new environments and stories and other improvements over the predecessor... but in the end, you end up in a scenario where over many years you're just buying the same experience over and over again. And I don't want to do that.
I would not want Halo to be over.. or gears since they are my top favorite games.Well... I would. I liked the end of Halo 3. Cortana and Chief were left drifting in outer space. It gave closure to the end of an epic adventure.
It's like Seinfeld: they quit at their height and people were upset, but it will forever be remembered as one of if not the greatest sitcom to ever grace television. But with Halo, instead of its legacy being solidified with Halo 3, they have to make Halo 4 and then change the gameplay here and there and tweak the storyline and kill off characters and leave you wondering where things are going because it's not over yet... there's no end in sight.
Sure, it can be more profitable that way, but I don't think it makes for as satisfying of an experience to look back on.
