Will there be another Halo?

A question asked to Bungie

Hey Frankie I'm a diehard Halo fan, and after I beat Halo 2 I was left with a sense of incompletion. Now I'm not complaining, Halo 2 is excellent especially multiplayer, but I just need to know something. What was the reasoning behind the ending, did you guys intend on the cliffhanger initially or did you guys just run out of time. I'm just so frustrated, I wish you guys would just use the current engine and make the second half of this story. I just cant wait 3 years to get to the REAL battle.

Halo 2's ending is a cliffhanger. Intentionally.

Thanks for that but I doubt they can make Halo 3 In three months.

The feb 9th thing is true....I didn't read all 3 pages of this thread, but from what i hear, the idea is that they will be releasing more levels on xbox live to dl and (probably) play on earth.

Yay. Except for the fact that I can't get Live til' next spring break!

Halo3 is destined to come out for Xbox Next sometime in the years to come.. (but dont expect it to come before the ps3's release)

Halo 3 for X-Box 2 more than likely...

I'll pray to GOD that that does not happen! I ain't spendin' another 400 bucks out.

The game is probably going to come out in a few years but when it does it's going to kick some ass. I mean it's probably going to be the best game on the planet.

What the...?
Double post, MC?

About the best game on the planet, Bungie'd have to add a couple of elements to the story to get that type of cool. My vote: I would have the last mission a Helm's Deep type, protect the Ark from the Brutes. Elites are your ally.
"Mission objectives:"
-Defend the Ark fortress for 40 minutes.
-The Arbiter must survive.

My version of the opening cinematic of this mission(choreographed):

A Pelican dropship roars past the screen, followed by a friendly Phantom.
(Whine of many engines)
(grows louder)
Several dozen hostile Covenant-made aircraft scream by.

(ABOARD THE PELICAN)
MC- How long until they hit the outer perimeter?
Cortana- The Phantoms will drop the Brutes down, followed by the march from the west. All and all, they will be at the Ark fortress in an hour.
Johnson- Looks like they want some revenge for Mohawk, eh?

(Radio crackles)
MC-Punch through the interference and give me a clear signal.
Cortana- Done.
Voice- Demon, this is Arbiter, I'll drop off and try and muster some reinforcements. You hold off the heretics from the Sacred Device. Do not let them get hold of it.
MC-Roger that, split-chin.

I do hope for more multiplayer customization (of player models ) in the next installment though

I don't like exaggeration. Well put.

Halo 2.5 is going to be out for the xbox 2 conxole and feature as the lowest specs an HDTV rendering p[robably as high as 1280x720 and it will alsoinclude everything that didn't make it in Halo 2. It may be used for the Launching of the system or as bait and reasoning to purchase the system before its realease. It'll be preloaded with HDD as an option...unbeleivable; a gaming system that supports a game that is preloaded with an HDD option in crazy.

first of all your all right in a way. the thing is there is going to be a halo 3
and a xbox2. you know why, cause they started making it 8 days after halo 2 was being made. it is due to come out sometime at the end of 2005. so start saving up money. and the downloadable content that is comeing out on feb 9th will have new levels including a new hangum high, and new sidewinder. there will also be new campain and a new character. not sure who it is yet but it has something to do with ilovebees.com. so for all you halo fans good luck and try not to be newbs.

hangum high

Oh yes I love that level!!!

Yeah that was my favourite. Other than Battle Creek.

Why the hell Wouldn't they make An XBox 2 it made microsoft Tons of money and they would open it up with halo 3

The idea of halo 3 coming ourt feb 8th or whatever might be right. But if you put the halo2 disc into a dvd rom drive, it doen't have much space left so they probably had to ditch most of the features and they need to make it dual layed or something if it was gonna come out with sprinting melle combos stealth and all the stuff they said so they could have very likely made split the game in two

AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

yes

Okay, first of all i don't know if halo 3 is coming out on x-box or not but, it is going to come out on either xbox or xbox2. Also i know for sure that xbox2 will be coming out either this year or next. It will be out by "January 1,2007" i know this because my aunt works for a video game distributing company, and she gets her info directly from Micorsoft.

Hey aslo gess what i get one of the first xbox2's that comes out for free from her, even before they go into stores! I get free games all of the time, and i am a rocksolid fan of halo 2, i cant wait for halo 3 to come out. 😄

covenant and humans work together, i am 90% sure.

I agree.
At least, the Elites will.
I love the controlled anger from "the Arbiter" in Halo 2 when the Elite Honour Guards are stripped of their anger......😛

TOPIC: I kinda' hope that Halo 3 will come out for XBOX 2, or whatever, because the graphics could be enhanced SO much.

Oh, and whoever posted back a few pages that Bungie made "like 2.8 million in one day...", wow buddy-that's a LONG way off the marker.
Bungie made over 125 MILLION DOLLARS on Halo 2's opening day ALONE! 😱

LOL @ Diesel fan: Hola 3. hysterical
