MS: 'More than two or three teams' working on Halo

Theyre not whoring it out, they're "exploring" the possibilitites:P

third team is probably just the team working on things with halo 3, doubt there's anything other than the 3 of those but who knows

Personally I don't mind if they "whore out" the Halo franchise. As long as they are doing different things? There is tons of story that can be used in the Halo universe. I think some automatically assume its all going to be about Master Chief.

Halo Wars, Halo Chronicles, Bungies Project, and the rumored Gearbox Halo 4. All potentially different games, at different times. Works for me.

Still undecided on Halo Wars.. especially after C&C3 (but then EA are good at messing things up)..
What I'd like one of the Teams to be working on.. is Halo CE & Halo 2 on the Halo 3 engine.. maybe tie in new stuff from Halo Wars into the trilogy, like brute beards, getting brutes how they were suppose to be during Halo 2 (ie not wimpy bullet spongies)..

Yeah, we played them before but why not again with it all being consistant like how the control scheme changed, and some of the level design on a certain level on H:CE was really bad..

oh man i got it its just i felt like writing somethin stupid. im bored

Meh. IMO the good old days of Halo are gone. Halo 2 was the peak.

Master Chief gang-bang? oh, lord give me strength to still appreciate this franchise...

Well, it looks like my favorite game series is about to die... And faster than expected.

Well there is Halo wars, Halo 3, Peter Jackson's project, Bungie's Halo game, and probably Halo 4.

amen

"More then two or three". = atleast four.

We have the Peter Jackson project.

The Bungie Halo project, that has been confirmed by both Don Mattricks and Bungie.

Then we have Halo Wars.

The "some of them we will own, some of them we won't."

Refers to Bungie, and atleast one other studio. As "some" indefinetely implies atleast 2.

This indicates to me the mysterious Gear Box shooter, is infact a Halo game.

So that means (Breath in) that there is atleast 4 Halo games in the works at this very moment.

Conclusion: Microsoft has gone and nintendoed their hottest franshise.

Thats right everyone, get ready for some Doctor Chief, super covenant dash II , Super Halo brothers: Plasma war, and everyones favorite Masterchief teaches you how to type.

Good god help us now.

Seriously though, I don't have an ounce of contempt for any of the games listed above.

The Bungie project will be worth checking out. Halo Wars looks interesting. I have been excited about the Jackson project since it was "announced" in 2006.

And lastly, the maps Gear Box designed for Halo PC were some of the best.And they have had a pretty good history with FPS's. So we'll see what they do with this game.

And Joe, that honestly didn't make any sense.

The guy isn't saying they won't own some of the games. He's saying they don't own all of the developers working on the games.

And Bungie (thats Bungie as in Bungie) has said Halo and Marathon take place in two different universes.

Doesn't mean there isn't throw backs for fans. Or even that the stories might be connected on some level.

Examples:

Alternate realities of one another.

After the universe collapses in the final terminal in Marathon Trinity, followed by the big bang and a new universe. That universe could be the Halo universe.
