No matter what Bungie does at this point, they just aren't going to be able to satisfy everyone's expectations. They're going to spend countless hours fixing things that aren't broken, and making improvements that few really will ever appreciate. In the end, if this is the final chapter, there isn't any monetary reason to spend a bunch of money on the final project.

Ever see Robocop 3, Aliens 3, Blade 3? Even though they tanked at the box office, they were profitable for the licensee because they sold out and weren't tied to the box office sales. If you know there isn't going to be any more movies/productions, you might as well crank out the minimum and cash in. Otherwise, there really needs to be a Halo 4.

be quiet, you should really watch the DVD that comes w/halo 2 limited edition it has a little bit on why the campaign sucked ass if my memory serves me correctly.

halo 2 wasnt all that bad, just the campaign was a little bland but online was awesome.

First off, this isn't a movie! Video Game Sequals usually make more profit than movie Sequals. For example the Street Fighter series, every Mega Man sequal, every Final Fantasy Sequal, Jesus do I have to mention The Mario Bros. games.

Plus this isn't the last Halo game persay, It is the last game in this story arch, but not the last game of the franchise. Another way of saying it is this is the end of Master Chiefs story in the Halo universe. We all know hes probabaly going to die or retire at the end of Halo 3. But theres still alot of the stories that can be told like the three remaining spartans(god forbid if they show up in halo 3) or stories about Captain Keys and why he is so bad ass(don't think it would make a good game but who knows).


I another Point I want to make is, I think alot of people are forgeting that Bungie isn't making Halo 3 to please every fan out there, but to finish the story. To make an ending to such a classic, mind blowing SCI FI story sence Star Wars, or that other movie The Matrix(its really too bad they never made a sequal to that movie)

First off, Halo 3 isn't a "sequel" and by all means show me a video game where the third installment surpassed a sucessful second installment? How did you like Resident Evil 3 or Tomb Raider 3? Sorry, but the failures out number the sucesses tenfold.

Like all their competitors, good intentions only amount to failure. Bungie should learn from their competitors mistakes.

At a minimum, they should avoid developing "new" technologies/programing ideas. If they're wasting anytime changing the gaming engine they used for Halo 2, they are doomed.

i didnt like either because they were both playstation games

If they're wasting anytime changing the gaming engine they used for Halo 2, they are doomed.

have a look at half life 2,best pc game of the year and the following.
the warcraft franchise they took a large step into a new game type and now they are making $100000+ every month or so

To the person two above me
SHUT UP, just shut up, your they kind of pessamistic bastard who wrights sht reviews about every game they see and makes it so the people who made the games go broke.
bungie is not an average game developer, they are they masters of game developing, not like ea or codemaster who just churn out a medeocre game every year, bungie puts effort into there games.

Ok Ok Ok, its not a sequal but what about Quake 3 Arena( for PC) that blew Quake 2 out the water, and of course the always loved, Rainbow Six 3.

I agree that the failures of third installments do out number the succesfull ones, but really there isn't that many third installments to games. I don't know why, maybe they makers like to cash out or the games don't make enough money or thier intent was just to make one good game .


Well guess what I'm saying is you make a good point, but why cash out why not try to make the best conclusion to the stroy the can, why not make the cheat free xbox live experience that halo 2 should have had? Why make it all about money? lets learn from the music industry and make it about the gaming, the story and the fun, F-the money, F-the crittics and most of all F-Ashley simpson, Paris hilton and anyother "So Called Artist"

I love how off topic I can get =)
