It is just using the halo name to sell imo.

I would rather they made halo 4, but with an SP to rival Halo 1's

are you people blind or something? Halo 3 recon.....its between halo 2 and halo 3......its a frigging expansion

Would you make up your mind as to whither it's an expansion or a standalone game? You made a point of it being a standalone game in your last post.

[QUOTE="GundamGuy0"]Next thing you know we'll be playing Master Chief Baseball, and Basket Ball, and Soccer/Football.... Clearly Microsoft is following the Nintendo meathod of franchise use. ReverseCycology

Geez, it's the first campaign expansion since the series launched. Exaggerate much?

How do you think it started with the Mario Franchise... ?

And Halo Wars isn't an expansion of the franchise... (not the same campaign but the franchise as a whole)

I also like playing with the Snake, Kratos, etc. Sackboys in LBP. It is what it is. The bottom line, is that Halo is a successful franchise. I hope they'll be a Legos Halo too.

I don't see a problem with it as well, and hope for more, but when a new Mario is announced it's called a rehash and a cash in... and when Halo is announced the collective response is "tell me more!"... I just like to point out the hypocrisy.

the best shooter releaed so far this year was a certain small stand alone game named crysis warhead. it took everything that was wrong with the first, and polished it to the max for a great price.

I dont want an expansion, that sucks, how about a full game?

And yes, they used the halo name for sales, they said it was for the fans which = lets milk the fans for all their worth.

I would rather either, a good new proper Halo game, or a totally new shooter with no trace of halo in it.

Is making a new campaign really that big a problem for you?

I fail to see how it's "milkage". By the time it comes out Halo 3 would have been out for two years. It's not like a Halo game comes out every three month like Mario or Guitar Hero.

If you don't want it, dont buy it and stop b****ing.

So when Valve makes expansions for Half-Life their milking?

When Blizzard makes expansions for WoW their milking?

Hate to break it to you, but expansions have been a part of gaming for over a decade. Fans want them, just because Halo is doing it now doesnt mean it's not officialy the worst thing to do ever.

If you don't want the game, simply don't buy it. That easy.

You can thank Metal Gear Solid 4 for MS's weak attempt to make up for their lack of this exclusive.

Iv'e missed out on a lot of Mario games apparently.

You fail to see how it's milkage because your the one being milked... this could have easly just been a totally new franchise... and are you going to buy Halo Wars too, going to see the movie?

I don't care that it's milkage or not... I'm just giving lems a taste of their own medicne...

No but when Nintendo does it... It's milking... and is this an Expansion... it seems like a spin-off to me... You dont have to have Halo 3 to play it....

It's a standalone expansion. Like Guild Wars.

You don't really need Halo 3 to play Recon, but it's there mainly to complement the experience.

Besides, the game will be using asset from Halo 3. And it'll be using Halo 3's multiplayer.

why what's wrong with that? & why is it milkage? you don't need it.. don't buy it..

milkage = things u need.. but don't come by default.. e.g. memory cards for ps2 / gamecube. hdmi cable for ps3.. headsets for wii & ps3.., etc...

So how is that an expansion, isn't that just standalone then? It's like console exclusive... internet nonsense.

Yeah, apparently. There are around like five Mario games a year. If thats not milking then theres no such thing.

Milked my ass. It's just two games. Whoopde do.

And what movie really?

And good luck, because there is no "milkage" with Halo. It's not an abused property like Mario.

:| why not? you just said if he didn't enjoy it thats fine, well obviously he didn't if he dislikes it in the manner he showed. lol

He doesn't have to right a story, to get his opinion across. IN HIS OPINION, he thinks the game isn't needed. he doesn't fancy it, let it go.

don't try and argue it. accept it.

Eyezonmii

The whole point of a forum is to discuss things. Person 1 can claim x, and Person 2 can disagree, claiming y. That's pretty much how conversation works on a discussion board, is it not? :?

I really dont understand the problem, or what you're even trying to debate here. I could quote practically every post you've made here and say exactly the same thing - "it's just my opinion - dont argue with me, i have a right to it!"

If you have no intention of holding up your end of a discussion or talking about whatever you're giving your opinion on, surely it doesnt belong on a forum?

I think its because the Mario franchise is like 20 years old while the Halo franchise isn't even in its teens. Besides Mario is a character that can be put in any genre. While Halo is a fictional universe just like the Star Wars universe. So its easy to get excited about a different genre thats within the Halo universe than Mario being in a new racing game or whatever.

No game is needed. But the fans want it, and I certainly find the idea of playing through a Halo-verse without a Spartan to be a very intriguing idea.
