Poll: To Halo or not to Halo...4...That is the question.

ODST and Reach are my favorite Halo games, and neither are about the Chief. I'd like to see more side-stories like those, but I don't trust anything from 343. They should just leave Halo in peace.
You do know that 343 is made up of former Bungie people who made Halo. So they do have past credit. Halo 1-3.Maiestas777 said:
Theres a reason their name is a Halo reference. Hell, they are made up of the people from Bungie who STILL want to do Halo. That means they still have drive to do well.
I enjoyed both single and multiplayer in previous games. So sure, if it's any good I'll pick it up.
I don't understand why so many people want to see a healthy franchise and it's protagonist die.
Mario didn't stop after 5 games either and thats widely considered a good thing.

Why the fuck are people saying Halo has been around for too long? Considering that just about every game Nintendo puts out has been around for about three decades, and the Final Fantasy series almost just as long. Halo has had five games...and halo Wars. And two of those games...well, one was an expansion that somehow got made into a full game yet still felt like an expansion, and one was all right, even if the story was broken as all fuck, and the characters were as original as the latest Pokemon game.
Personly, I wished it had been called something else instead of Halo 4 (Which is possible, it is coming out next year, not next month. I remember MW2 went through about three names changes a few months before it came out). Aside from that, it will be interesting to see what 343 Industres can do, since they have not made any game since they were founded in 07.

Isn't 343 basically made up of Bungie employees though, just under a different name?Kombatkid123 said:
I think the rest of Bungie went over to work under Activision.
Anyway, I guess I'll reserve judgement until I hear more about it. May be good, may be bad. Although if they give us a proper level creator/editior then all my common sense will go out the window and it'll be a release day buy.
It's not the fact that it's the fourth game in the series. I appreciate the fact that other companies are continuing their series, like Fallout, Zelda, etc. because their series either isn't complete yet (Assassin's Creed), never really ends (Fallout and Final Fantasy has multiple story lines, not just one specific character), or because a company still continues the legacy of maintaining a game (Eidos with Hitman, Nintendo with Mario and Sonic...etc.). I don't like the fact that Bungie not only mentioned Reach was going to be their last game, but the Halo franchise is going to be taken over by another company, when Bungie made good enough story lines for the series. Halo 3 should have been the end of Master Chief: the war is over with the Covenant and the Halo Rings are destroyed (hence the title of the series is now purposelessStubee said:
). What else could there possibly be?
I'm curious, but really think that Master Chief should be put into retirement. He had a great run and now its tiem for other characters to take over. I'll reserve judgment, however, until it comes out.
Actually, although several Bungie employees came over, the only one of note is former community manager Frank O'Connor, who is now the creative lead of 343i. The company was formed by Microsoft Game Studios for the single purpose of continuing Halo, hence the name. Most of Bungie is still at Bungie.Saelune said:
Please please PLEASE be actually a SEQUEL not an EXPANSION.
I am sorry, but when you attach jet packs to Halo 3, you get Halo 3 with jet packs, not a new game.
But again, looking at how most fps only add couple weapons, couple perks and better graphics in their "sequels" I don't rise my hopes. *I am looking at you Call of Duty*

Consider me a fanboy, but I simply cannot envision there being such a thing as too much Master Chief. There can never be such a thing as too much Master Chief. I could go without the Arbiter this time around though, at least the whiny Arbiter that he has been up to now. I want the Arbiter from Halo Legends The Duel episode. Bad ass.
