Halo3 ? Or Not

QUOTE (X2Gamer @ Jul 24 2004, 05:56 AM)
i don't think they should make halo 3. I think they should make something new and original because most sequels have a tough time of surpassing there predcessors.

If there's a Halo 3 then it'll entirely depend on the hardware available at the time, the system limitations of the hardware (for example the game may be so graphically advanced that the PS2 can't handle it - KOTOR anyone?) and the publisher and developer involved deciding on whether there's a large enough market for the game on the console.

For example if Halo 3 is announced and due for release around the same time that the Xbox 2 is released, the Developer/Publisher may decide that the Xbox 2 doesn't have enough sales to warrant releasing the game on that format.

Also on the point quoted, Halo 3 won't be a "predecessor", it'll be a continuation of an already existing and VERY strong Brand. It's a similar situation to  the Championship Manager Series, Hitman Series, Tomb Raider Series, Battlefield Series etc etc.

BTW guess what industry I work in... lol  biggrin.gif

There will be a halo3. I dont know that, but I know that. Ya know? It might not be for a long time (look at doom 3 for example), but it will come. I think halo3 will come about 6months after the launch of xbox2. If you ask me I always think the 3rd version of anything is the best (doom, quake, UT, etc).

right, so you are all debating wheter Halo3 is going to be on the cards?

I can assure you there is a concept for it, and i can assure you that YOU WILL WANT TO BUY IT.

SPOILERS.... (dont read if you dont want to know about halo3)

It is set after Halo 2; on the ark; which is/ or is on earth.

All the Halo rings are primed and ready to blow!

The ark will detonate all the other Halo rings remotely (there are quite a few)

Cortana hologram girl is in the hands of the flood beast; who is questioning her, so at a guess the flood will return for H3.

There are covenant and humans working together, but you will have to finish H2 to understand it's more complicated than this, as the races are split.

Chief will arrive back on earth aboard a forerunner ship; Truth; clinging to the outside.  This ship carries Brutes and prophets of the Covenant who are determined to start The Great Journey, which involves activating the destruct sequence of all the Halos.

Halo4&5?  Possibly, as the it appears the main aim of Halo3 will be to stop the activation of the rings; there could be side plots, or dealing with problems after the covnenant who follow the path to the great journey.


OK, so there you go, a few things to think about, finish Halo2 and you will understand them in more detail, i didnt want to say too much!

Yes i have played/finished H2.
No I do not have a illegal copy of it on my xbox.
Yes i will buy the retail version so i can play over xboxLive.

Think everything you wanna know is there.


As for platform, obviously Xbox2 would be a good channel; possible as a launch title (MS would love that - imagine how many xbox2s would get sold on launch day...)  but the H2 engine is amazing and perfectly adequate of running a great sequel.

Personally i would say that 'cus of marketing / money, Halo2 will be Xbox2 only.

Whatever, i will have copy!

Monkeycrew, I think you've got some facts wrong:

The ship MC is on is a forerunner ship, but NOT the Truth.  Truth is the name of the covenant prophet also on board the ship, who MC is pursuing.

There is limited evidence to support the claim that the ARK is EARTH, and that same evidence could also be said to point that the the ARK is the affore-mentioned Forerunner ship. I believe the latter is the case...

Cortana is NOT in the hands of the Flood beast.  She is in the Covenant computer system aboard the Holy City High Trinity, which happens to be infested with Flood.

That is all...

The ending is a huge dissapointment. And there will be a Halo 3, just beat the game and watch the movie. Why wouldn't Bungie want to make more money?

i think there will be a halo3 but in many years to come due to the fact that bungie are already working on a project that is a game based on the movie dawn of the dead and its going 2 be run on a moddified halo engine.

and y is halo2 ending a dissapointment? dont tell me the ending but does it cahnge the story completely and is it a ending that can be continued?
