Why not just have Halo, Halo 2 and Halo 3?

Leave it at that, done and dusted, move onto something else, more exctiting and brilliant...

Or, if your a money grabbing corporation, choose this second option, "Milk it."
I know man. Every other big popular video game hasn't been franchise milk their franchise.

From the exception of:

Pac-Man
Mario
Madden
Sonic
Earthworm Jim
Resident Evil
Mortal Kombat
Street Fighter
Zelda
MGS
Tony Hawk
Call of Duty
Final Fantasy
etc.
etc.

Didn't Bungie say that they weren't doing any more Halos after Halo 3. Oh besides Halo:Wars cause that had been announced before that. And ODST doesn't count cause it's not the same. What's there excuse for this one. That it's a prequel. Lets be honest Bungie are never going to do anything else besides Halo ever again. Ever.

I want to play as baby MC. :D

Hopefully you get to play as other spartans, and hopefully you can choose which one you want to play as or even with (if it is squad based). I hope it's something different from Halo 3, same gameplay mechanics but just different gameplay like ODST. I wonder what the multiplayer will be like...

The majority of companies milk franchies and are afraid to try something new. Some of the best games out there are made by companies who try something new, and bring something original to a table full of the same milked out shit year on year. such as mirrors edge, ico, shadow of the collosus. Then what happends well...

lets take Guitar hero as my example; when it first came out, it was unique, brilliant and entertaining, and now, a few years later we have:
Guitar hero
Guitar hero 2
Guitar hero 3

Stay with me here...

Guitar hero world Tour
Guitar hero Aerosmith
Guitar hero Metallica
Guitar hero Rock the 80's

see the trend yet?

and soon we will have
Guitar hero 5
Band Hero
DJ hero
Keyboard hero
Guitar hero Smash Hits
Guitar hero Van Halen

do you understand now?

Also, lets not fail to mention the 7 or 8 portable games i can think off of the top of my head.

Oh heck, lets name them for fun.

Guitar Hero Carabiner
Guitar Hero III
Guitar Hero: On Tour
Guitar Hero III Backstage Pass
Guitar Hero On Tour: Decades
Guitar Hero World Tour
Guitar Hero On Tour: Modern Hits


oh and lets not forget others who see the band wagon and jump on.

Such as Rock Revolution and ultimate band

see where i'm going with this yet?


Most games follow the tradition of making a game, a sequal or two which changes nothing, and then add just a few new things every instalment. like... lets see... Guitar Hero.

Am i the only person who wants to see new types of games every year? New things that have not been tried?

OK, to be fair, Guitar Hero did try something new, ie. adding the drums and microphone.

And it will try keyboard Hero and DJ Hero.
But please, please developers, move on to something new.

Rant over, thanks for you time...

Actually I'm looking forward to this, I know we're going to have to play as Spartans again, but I would love to do the Playground test and the test where they dropped them off in the middle of the snowy forest from the book.

Plus, I think infiltrating a rebel base could be really fun.

I read all of the Halo books. :p Too bad most other people that believe the Halo series is overrated never enjoyed reading them. :/

Oh, i completely agree with you, i would love some new stuff to come out. But you can't shout at them too much for wanting to make money. Maybe their just building up loads if money so they can try something completely new and radical without too much financial risk involved.

Anyway, i can't what's wrong with more Halo games. They've got a decent universe built up that can be easily expanded on. There's a lot of things they can do with it.
