Being the FPS console didn't help XFlop1 and while this gen Halo 3 helped a lot, they were mostly MS head start and Sony big mistakes to make XB360 2nd this gen (WW not granted for all the gen, America almost surely granted).
So let's just hope next Bungie big IP be not another FPS, for Sony's and Bungie's sake and gamers' too, as we have more than enough FPS' on every platform. And what's for sure Halo fans won't settle on alternatives, they like Halo, they buy it and they'll keep on buying it, unless MS totally ruin it.

You make it sound like they are making a PS3 exclusive...

One thing I can guarantee... they wont make a PS3 exclusive.  zero chance.

I didn't mean to make so. But Sony is the happiest of Bunge going multiplat, so that happening to make yet another FPS and not even exclusive, wouldn't bring either Sony or Bungie so much good, this was the sense of what I wrote. For MS the issue is quite neutral OTOH, they still own Halo and it will always be exclusive, with at most late PC ports, having another multiplat big franchise, made by people that know how to work on XB and please its users would be good anyway, nothing exceptional if it happens to be another FPS, but nothing to despise too, but it wouldn't be a great system seller, being a not exclusive of the same kind of their biggest exclusive. So IMVHO Sony has most to lose from it being a FPS, because it wouldn't be exclusive anyway and Halo fans would keep on wanting the original one, and Bungie would have even more to lose, as repeating themselves when in the past they were both original and successful would taint the name they worked so hard and long to earn.

About PS3 exclusive, yes, very little to no chance at all.

But anyway, who cares, the biggest thing is Bungie coming back to PC! Console gaming is domed, now!
