How many Halo's is enough?

Halo is massively popular and there is def no shortage of games in the series for fans to enjoy. My concern is that like with many other games there is a such thing as too much.

Who thinks Halo will go overboard with additions?
Who thinks Halo will needs as many additions as they can make?

There is already: Halo: Combat Evolved, Halo 2, Halo 2 Map pack, Halo Triple Pack, Halo 3, Halo Zero, and Halo: Custom Edition. They are already planning on Halo Wars, Halo: Chronicles, and Halo 3: Recon.

How many Final Fantasy's are enough? How many Metal Gears are enough? How many Guitar Heros are enough? It's all profit uinfournatly, if the game has profit and sells they'll milk it till the day it dies.Solid_Max13

I couldnt agree with you more. Unfortunately this is where good series go downhill and start to fail because after spin 38742387 it seems to lose its luster and appeal.

It a Free Halo side-scrolling shooter game. I also don't see the reason to count Map pack and Ports. Right now there is just Halo, Halo 2, Halo 3, Halo: ODST, Halo wars. Halo: Chronicles had been missing in action.

That isn't that bad.

I get it :|

@TC I can't believe you counted map packs and a fan made came as releases...

They could literally milk the crap out of the franchise for all I care, the more Halo the better.Floppy_Jim

3 Halo games in the decade, wow that really is a lot:|FirstDiscovery

[QUOTE="Floppy_Jim"]They could literally milk the crap out of the franchise for all I care, the more Halo the better.Franko_3

This is exactly my point. Im not saying its been "milked" or over done yet, but i feel that Microsoft and Bungie will push it to that level. I really dont want to walk into a game store and see "Halo: Cooking Party"

As you may have comprehended, Halo is prosperous to a high level. Apart from Halo 3 and Grand Theft Auto IV, no game has hammered Halo 2's day-one sales record, $125 million. For what reason would they stop?

exactly mario, sonic, madden, dynaty warriors, final fantasy, metal gear solid these games have been milked more then anything else

L_Samax

Just look at FFVII, There is the main game FFVII, Before Crisis, Crisis Core, Dirge of Cerberus, Advent Children, and Last Order. They may also make a remake.

You shouldnt be talking, your the one with the Final fantasy avatar afterall:roll:,,FF is a milked franchiseforeverflame890

And if you payed any attention it is an OLD FF avatar. Before they "milked" it and went over-board in the series.

Yeah the only thing good from the complation of FFVII are Adevnt Children,Crisis core and the Main FFVII, the rest are crap.

It is Final Fantasy VII, the most miled Final Fantasy at the moment. I love FFVII, but I have to admit it is getting milked.

FFVII, Before Crisis, Crisis Core, Dirge of Cerberus, Advent Children, Last Order, and possible a remake. EDIT: There is also a Dirge of Cerberus on Cell Phones.

What additions? Bungie is only making ODST so they can tell the story for someone else's standpoint rather than just the MC's... The packs are just multiplayer maps... The Halo story is truly amazing, read the novels. I hope Bungie, Peter Jackson, etc make more games involving and showing different parts of the story similar to what Bungie is doing with ODST. The story is not just as simple as what you saw from the MC's perspective.

TheAnnihilation

Over 9000!!!!!!!!!!!!! sorry i had to say it.

3 is fine.

9001? thegoldenpoo

Yes, OVER 9000 Halo games would be good. :p

I liked Halo 3 the best.

I think one Halo per five years for the next little while should be good.

We shouldn't worry about the well-being of the game until it has more games than there are Pokemon movies.

Hey, dont get me wrong. Im a fan of the series and thats why i dont wanna see them degrade it with "milking" like i have seen happen to so many other series in my gaming history.

comstrikeiscool

Halo 2 sold about 7-8 million (guessing) in its lifetime on the Xbox with only 20 million Xbox's sold... Thats pretty amazing seeing how the PS2 struggled to sell that much of one title and the PS2 was owned by nearly 80 million customers

If a game can sell more than 2.5 million copies in its first hour on the shelves, then you know that this game is in demand and has a trememdous fanbase. The only other game to do this is GTA4 but only because it was on two major consoles, while Halo 3 was only on one...

This isnt Mario or MGS now... Bungie wouldnt let this happen. But then again, MS owns Halo now, so they may likely get some other dev team to make new Halos

There is already: Halo: Combat Evolved, Halo 2, Halo 2 Map pack, Halo Triple Pack, Halo 3, Halo Zero, and Halo: Custom Edition. They are already planning on Halo Wars, Halo: Chronicles, and Halo 3: Recon.

elfimis

Anyway, aslong as they're all quality games, I don't see any problem at all. It's like saying they should stop making Zelda or Mario platformers.

Do you honestly not think that too many spin-offs and additions can lower the value of the series?

[QUOTE="TheAnnihilation"][QUOTE="comstrikeiscool"] One day sales mean nothing. Take sales over an item's entire life how about.krp008

Three games. Grand Theft Auto IV, Halo 3 and World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Burning Cusade.
