I Feel Like ODST and Reach Were Just Experiments for Destiny
Think about it:
ODST: Testing how well free-roam/sandbox environments work
Reach: Customized armor appearing in cutscenes, extensive character customization, abilities(AAs), Racial differences(Elites vs Spartans), space combat, and more.
Thoughts?

The only thing they had left was 2 more Halo games to get out of that deal. ODST wasn't a full game compared to the 3 main games and Reach. So that was more of something to keep you entertained. Reach added in armor abilities which is a big change to Halo. I don't see them adding in something like that to their final Halo game unless they did it to test it out for Destiny. Why go through the trouble of doing something like that for a game when you have nothing to do with the series anymore? Hell the ability pickups in Halo 3 might be concepts Bungie was thinking about for Destiny. After all ODST does have Destiny Easter eggs like that :"Destiny awaits" poster.
