Microsoft sure loves their milk.

Duh ... does the OP know how many Destiny releases (not to mentioned DLC packs) that bungie has signed on for? And compare Microsoft to Activision ... how many COD titles have there been? Guessing someone doesn't understand basic commercial reality :(

12 回复The quality will only get worse. It took them 4 years to make Halo 4. Blah blah blah 343 fanboys, I don't wanna hear it "but that was their first game they will do better next time!" yeah no. More games means they will care less about each individual one. Even worse all previous Halo games will get even more of a boot and they won't care to go back and update playlists like they have so poorly neglected Halo 3 and Reach already. Halo is now a cash cow, not a quality game you'd wait every 3 years for and could play for 10 without being bored. I'm still playing Halo 3. That is a quality Halo game. Halo 4 doesn't even last a year for most people lol

This is a tough one. I've always believed that the Halo universe is rich enough to withstand more games. Reach, ODST, Halo Wars, & now Spartan Assault. What they should not do is milk the Reclaimer story. Unless this is a direct response to how poorly the story in Halo 4 was explained & they feel they need more games to do it justice, it simply won't work. If it does become a "saga" then I expect the first cinematic of the main campaign to lead into the actual campaign, not to lead into Spartan Ops. (Halsey in that cinematic did basically zero to help the story of the main campaign)

2 回复Nothing made by 343i can be considered a "legitimate" Halo game, that said, the OP is right. Looks like Microsoft is the new Old Disney, where they buy everything, and make endless sequels that aren't worth the disk they are printed on. ... But then that means that means they will eventually make a Halo equivalent of the Avengers, if my analogy holds up.

2 回复I think I'm going to call Halo 4 my last and leave it at that. I want to end on a high note.

They need more space to cover the stuff that was told in Silentium. Halo 4 was barely enough to fit in the Didact, the concept of Ancient Humanity and the Mantle, so I don't see it being feasible for them to tell their overarching story in just 2 FPS games. It may also allow them to flesh out the setting a bit better, like what Halo 2 did after Combat Evolved - Halo 4 really didn't hint towards much of anything in the contemporary fictional setting, like what the UNSC is like and how it is faring, who these new Covenant are and why they exist and are hostile, or where the Arbiter and the rest of the benign Elites and Covenant are (If they even still exist). These things not being explained all caused problems on their own.

3 回复由Vgnut编辑: 6/21/2013 7:55:30 PMThey'll kill the IP then. Halo 3 sold tons of 360's on its own. That game was an event. It was the sequel to Halo 2. It had been three years (can you imagine three year intervals between Halo games?) How many people are foaming at the mouth to play Halo 5? How many people will buy a $500 console just to play Halo 5 or whatever they're putting out next year? Microsoft has no other blockbuster IP (Gears of War is done) so Halo has to carry the Xbox brand. If they had just spent the money over the last decade they could have fostered a big new IP that takes some of the weight off Halo.

1 回复makes sense, the halo universe is so big, and all we've really seen is Reach, the human-covenant war, and the Reclaimer saga, I would personally love to see more of halo... maybe the civil war, fighting the rebels, or maybe the human-forerunner war from before the forerunner saga, or just the fall of the forerunners. there is so much left to do in halo, and pejudiced idiots like you who just hate 343 and microsoft because it's a change from bungie are holding it back.

5 回复If they keep coming up with interesting stories, then I am all for it. I love the halo Universe and lore.
