Master Chief is awesome, but I kinda want to move forward with anouther character, maybe you follow the Arbitier as he frees his home world or something.

Also what would you want in 'Halo 4'?

Anything revolves around the Halo ring is Halo franchise. MC is just a character in there. Besides, there are plenty of spartan out there. Or we was waked up because there is more of ring for him to destroy. But I am thinking of Spartan action RPG. It is 3rd person and the game is more about upgrades rather than pure skills. Or we should have Halo MMOFPS.

mass effect would make a much better mmo then halo. :wink:

No, no they didn't. They said that particular trilogy would be the end of that particular story arc. Just like the original Star Wars is a trilogy. They were very clear that it was simply the conclusion of the story arc and not the conclusion of the game in itself.

Again; they did not say it was a trilogy of games. That particular story-arc; namely that of covenant vs mankind and halo rings and what-not, is concluded. The cliffhanger on the end of 3 obviously opened up a new one.

That's exactly what i just said. The story-arc is concluded. Like they said it would. The cliffhanger ending opened up a new one.

EDIT: also, gamespot keeps censoring your user name so i cant quote you. :?

There will be a Halo 4, carrying on from Halo 3. They might not make it immediately, but there will be one, for sure. You dont put cliffhanger endings in for the fun of it.

The forerunners have been left pretty much untouched in the games. As have the other spartans. The rebels. The pirates. Not to mention Onyx and the army of sentinals. There's heck-loads the can make a game out of.

yeah but it would suck because Bungie would not be doing it and any other studio would ruin an amazing series. Bungie is moving on to bigger better stuff. -chow

Which is perfect for a new story arc. Again; they wouldn't have ended the game that way if they had no intention of ever revisiting master chief after Halo 3. Simple.

a halo prequel with the mastercheif as a child aswell as flashbacks of the events that happened with the forerunners would actually be worth buying

Why would it have to be a prequel? Ghost Of Onyx showed that there are epic numbers of sentinals and existing forerunner machinery still working, expanding and attacking. I think we'll see Master Chief vs Forerunners, trying to save the other spartans.

but it's just sentinals,basically their creations. If bungie somehow Incorporated some forerunner history it would be cool. It is even speculated that humans were forerunners,who knows.

Yes but if you remember, they weren't just sentinals. They were building something on Onyx, and taking orders from something or someone which lead them to unite and attack the Covenant ships. Plus, the spartans are trapped in what the Forerunners used as a safe place remember; i think we can expect to be seeing forerunners.

i need to go re-read the books,because i thought the forerunners were extinct. I guess not,but would the spartans really kill the forerunner,and who would they follow orders from

halo 3 was the only victim of that. Halo 2 had good online play and of course Halo:CE had the better story than both its sequels. If they could make a game with Halo:CE's story and Halo 2's online play i might actually go play halo more.

I don't think so, the worst part of Halo 2 was playing as the arbitor and not Master Chief.

okay sorry but i really do think a good idea would be to have a game set in the earlier life of sgt. johnson or capt. keyes. or maybe the chief before the death of the other spartans. and i am not joking this time.
