Halo expanding into boardgames

LOL.

I couldn't imagine being a Halo hater-you wake up in the morning to find Halo cartoons or animes on T.V.

and then you start to see previews of Halo the movie.LOL

you want to get away from it only to come across your friend playing the board game at home..LOL

Halo Mouse trap the board game. This always happens with anything successful. The thing is will the younger demographic know what halo is and will they care.

This isn't new at all -- nor is it the first board game, the Halo Interactive Strategy game came out a long while ago.

Halo is no longer just a game anymore it is a UNIVERSE. Helmed by 343 INDUSTRIES

Hello movies, novels, animes, machinima, toys, madam Touesan and of course games.

Why not. Halo fans want more and more so give them more.

Halo haters this is something for them to contend with Halo is only going to get bigger and bigger and bigger.

I'm actually laughing in anticipation of the reactions. squirm and anguish of Cows and Halo haters then anything else.

Anything that has high financial success is going to be "milked." What's your point? If you make an IP, give it a first game, and it racks up millions of dollars, and a massive loyal fanbase, are you just going to move on, or do more with it?

milk is good for you unless you're lactose intolerant and can't stand Halo.

you never know. Halo cereals and actual cheese?

why not.

Honestly, I love the Halo games, but I'm surprised by this, yet at the same time I'm not.

Actually it's kind of exciting.

Halo is becoming like the "Star Wars" of video games. Millions of loyal fans, merchandise, movies, anime, novels.

actuallu there was a director who likened it's potential to be Star Wars.

Is there any comics on Halo?.

quite a few posts coming in fast.lol

keep it coming guys.

This is absolutely ridiculous and has no place in this world. M$ needs to cut the crap. There that should be enough bashing. On the serious note though, doesn't bother me. I just won't buy it and continue with my day. Besides, they're not the first.

Ah ok risk but in a halo theme...

Tbh its like the versions of monopoly, all the same really so its probably quite good.

Also about the halo movie which might be made. Halo gives enough for a movie, but a TV series wouldnt work...

oh well, make more then.

However I am more interested in a Halo RPG and Halo the movie.

I'm also exited how Bungie could use Halo with Project Natal.

Cortana actually like an interactive voice menu/

"cortana, consolidate my inventory" in the middle of a gun fight.

"Sniper weapon low on ammo, 2 plasma grenades, 1 fire grenade, 1 frag grenade.

I can order a weapons drop if needed"

you respond "do it"

Who cares? MS will make millions on it. They know it and you should as well, so while you are sitting here bashing it, they are walking to the bank cashing their checks.

SpiritOfFire117

it doesn't matter

if it is milked it is milked. Who cares.

It doesn't bother me. More ways I can get into and enjoy the Halo universe.

I really can't wait for the movie in light of the recent news with Steven Spielberg taking a big interest.

Star Wars fans have been enjoying Star war's universe for years. They get MMOs, board games, comics, movies, cartoons. If you're a fan it's good news.

It's already been mentioned here. There's already a Halo boardgame called "Halo Interactive Strategy Game".

There are novels, comics, action figures/vehicles, laser tag, t-shirts, keychains... That's what a franchise is.

they don't understand that, if they looked at all the MGS stuff released in japan they'd not bash, look at all the final fantasy and dragon quest stuff released in jpn.

Another concept is milking, we call cows cows because of the milking done in the ps2 generation.
Not because games would receive books, or board games, because too do certain things with the system you had to buy more and more, like multitap, or network connecter or hard drive...etc

A game getting popular and haveing a well rounded franchise is not milking.

I think it already came out, I remember reading about it on a website awhile ago.

Just did a search and I skimmed through this article but apparently it came out July 22nd.
