Bungie may return to Halo in the future after Reach. I can't say I blame them, it is one of the most successful series and if they don't make it Microsoft will find someone else who will.

Well that pretty much confirms that they are working on at least one new ip as well as Reach. If we do get any more Halo games after Reach this generation, i'd say they will be from 343. Then Bungie will have some uber awesome Halo game ready for the xbox 720 launch :twisted:

Yepper, we still have 2 more prequels to look forward to since Reach is only the first.

Think Lucas and Star Wars. :P

Not much of a shocker. Would be kinda dumb to completely abandon one of the most successful game series there is. That would be like Bungie just saying they hate money.

I want Bungie to milk the halo series like Mario! I love Halo and I've loved every game, with the exception of Halo Wars but that wasn't even made by Bungie. Considering the ending of Halo 3 I fully expect Bungie to be making another Halo game after Reach.

we need a short break from Halo. If you push so many game at one time like this it can kill a franchise. I have a feeling that once 383 industries takes over Halo it will be like the COD situation. A new Halo every year, 1 by Bungie, 1 by 383 and we will have the dev fanboys :P

That could happen but that's a just wait situation. I was expecting Gears Of War 3 this year since Halo ODST was last year.

I can agree with that. If you push to much into a franchise quickly it kills it off. Final Fantasy has been going for many many years and there not pushing it out as fast as they can.

As long as the next game Bungie pumps out has the same kind of effort as Reach, while not being a Halo game. I'm happy.

My guess is that Bungie will keep making Halo games for MS until that "independence clause contract" with MS expires. They said they wanted to make new IP's for other platforms. But they're not going to try yet since MS will likely just call dibs on them.

Milking means pushing a franchise or a series over its original plans, sometimes even not by the same developer. Scores do not mean anything.

They'll keep making Halo as long as they keep getting a huge paycheck. They'd be fools not to.

One could infer that could mean Marathon could see a so-called "Revival". That would be epic.

bungie is like kojima, say its their last but realize the money is there. I dont mind like the mainline MGS games (1-4) the mainline halo games (1-3) have been amazing, and I am sure Reach will be just as good.

Notice how Bungie said they wouldn't quit the series. They didn't say anything about any new Halo games planned as of yet.

I doubt it'd be a halo every year. since bungie is taking a break from halo. we'll se one every 2 years which is reasonable. I personally want multiple points of view in the war. Like playing as a marine, Imagine how intense that would be since a single burst of the battle rifle is leathal. or playing as an elite. there lots of potential left.

No we need to play as a Grunt. That is the future. Or maybe even the Forerunners a game where the only enemy is the flood. It could be the nexxt hour of victory :shock:

I see uninformation is no stranger on this board. Tell me have you played Reach yet? Paid attention to any scrap of information on it? Or better yet, have you played teh supa dupa new Halo game that was obviously announced in that article? Best guess at best says no to all. :P

Good point. Personally, I want as many Halo games as possible, I'm just don't want it to get saturated and then get crappier in quality because if Halo died out, that would be a pretty sad day :(

BS, there is no way that Bungie anyone can say the Halo series has been pushed over its original plan. Its a great series that keeps bringing us wonderful games, so why stop? There is no reason. None. Its just like FF. We all the way to XXlll now, and you wont find a single decent gamer complaining because its an enjoyable series and most like going to be a great game. As soon as the games start to take a hit, and aren't enjoyable (that doesn't mean to you, but rather the general public), then you can call it milking.

Milkage usually means selling a game on name alone. Example Mario being put into party/random games to get people to buy it.

Microsoft can't survive without Halo. There'll be more games in the franchise, but will M$ run it into the ground using 'lesser' devs? Let's be honest, if the 360 is going to last another five years, then its going to need more Halo as that and CoD are the only really big selling games on the machine. Oh, and Gears of War too.......

Halo CE '01, Halo 2 '04 Halo 3 '07...Halo Wars '09 (not by bungie, I know) ODST '09....4 titles (excluding Wars) in 8 years...can you see the latest trend? Developing firstly 3 years and lately 2 years for a new iteration? (Halo) Versus 3 years and even up to 4 years for each iteration? (MGS) Tell me which franchise is rahashing.
