Right. So we should understand and establish that milking a series, by producing many new games in the series, even spinoffs, may (or may not) be a bad thing. What matters is that care and quality is put into the title. This defines some series such as Battlefield from the Mega Man series - one has endless extras that are cash-ins, while the other has a decent bit of quality.
Going forward, Halo only has 3 shipped titles, and 1 this year. As long as Halo Wars, despite being an RTS, is quality, it will be great. What if HW is the best console-side RTS in the history of gaming? How will this be a bad thing? We should appreciate MS and Halo, and Ensemble, if HW is quality, because Microsoft/Bungie will have done the right thing: Use a blockbuster series to further promote innovation in genres.
Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
