Alright, I can accept that. My bad. But all the same, it seems to me that it could be argued in either direction.Johnnyallstar said:
Microsoft Not Done With Master Chief

So much hate in this thread. I'm getting bloody tired of the bandwagon of "hate it because it's popular". If you don't like it, and don't want to see it, don't buy it and let the rest of us enjoy our damn game in peace.
'Not done with him' could be anything from an appearance in ODST to another book.

I think they might to do a prequel before the original,a game where you play as Sgt Johnson or maybe a Marathon remake and I think the only one Bungie would develop would be the Marathon remake since they have said "they" are not making any more "Halo" games but who knows maybe will make one.
I believe Bungie stated once that Marathon and Halo are not related, if I find the link I'll post it. They're similar, nothing more.joystickjunki3 said:
UNSC = UESC
Spartan = Battleroid
Covenant = Pfhor (they even both have the rebellion that helps the humans out)
Anyway, I would love a Marathon remake, the story is so compelling but I hate Doom-era shooters.
I know it's going to suck but...I love Halo, and want more. I loved the games and thought the books were great, specially The Fall of Reach.
I was going to say "Were-Spartan, anyone?" Do believe I was beaten to it, though.Brotherofwill said:
Either way, I do not want to see another Halo. I liked the first 3 a bit, and I really don't want to see the chief become another Sonic.
I'm a huge Halo fan but even I think another Halo may be a bad idea. I doubt Bungie would release a Halo 4 but then again...
No, the news is not a surprise. Yes, it does cause my "Microsoft Points" to "lose morale." I think Bungie and Microsoft should leave the Halo series to the books. (As long as they get Eric Nylund to write more. His Halo stories are rivaled by none.) You have endless possibilities with the books and they cost much less to produce.
EDIT: I sounded really harsh there... If another Halo game does come out, I will buy it and I can guarantee you I will love it. I love the story too damn much not to. I just think they should quit while they're ahead. Just because I'll follow Bungie off a cliff doesn't mean everyone will.
If you beat Halo 3 on Legendary, you would've seen the extra few seconds of cinematics that shows 117's ship coming up on a dark, evil-looking planet. Obviously Bungie never had any intention of letting go of the Master Chief. They essentially told us in the end of their game!

Hopefully, they mean as in cameos, or in a prequel form.
The Chief is a soldier, and has no place in times of peace, so it's best his final fate is left unknown.
The Covenant fell apart after the Hierarchs were all killed, so their campaign against humanity is over.
The Flood threat was neutralized (at least locally), so no more worries about a squishy, infected Earth.
It's only the Chief's story that has an open ending.
Maybe he found the Forerunner planet and he's now living like a god as their "Reclaimer."

Yes, the "Fight" was "Finish"-ed.Medic Heavy said:

Does nobody else think that a prequel halo game showing the fall of reach would be a good thing?
Lot of talk about MC becoming the new Sonic, lets not forget that Sonic has a fair few years on Master Chief not to mention releases. Not to mention the fact that Sonic has been put through some god-awful games, (lets not even think about this Black Knight thing coming up...) i do think that even if MGS used MC again the concept would not be squandered and the game would follow the format that has attracted its following (FPS + Multiplayer).
Besides all of this, i reckon some people have already hit the nail on the head saying that he will appear in a non-playable way (Books, NPC etc).

Personally i think the next halo game should be a PC(cant stress that part enough) space rts similar to the homeworld games. Space battles have only ever really been explored through the books sofar and i personally love the idea of space rts's, the two factions' spacecraft have already been fleshed out within the halo universe through mostly the books and the original halo series so there would not be a need to invent units like they did in halo wars.
Besides i believe that its time MC was put to rest. They've fleshed his character out enough within the halo universe, would much prefer they focus on other preferably non-spartan characters. When playing the trilogy it always seemed as if the entire UNSC was completely incompetent and I (as MC) would have to litterally do everything which i thought was somewhat tiresome. Hearing the news of Halo 3:ODST was alot more exciting to me than the news of Halo 3 itself as firstly, the ODSTs are badass, and because finally we aren't playing as some genetically enhanced super soldier fighting the war entirely by ourselves. They have even stated that playing as the rookie will be somewhat different than MC in that he wont be as strong, fast or have energy shields/motion tracker. Atlast something refreshingly different ^_^

I wait with baited breath for:
Halo Racing
Halo Party
Halo 4: The Flood (AGAIN!)
Halo 5: The Drought
Halo 6: The Seven Plagues of Middle Earth.
Halo 7: Fuck it, it's the Covenant again.
