Why does Sony fail at making another mega franchise?

Probably late to the party here, but what did Halo rip off?

See Wolfenstein 3D, Doom, Quake, Quake 2, Rise of the Triad (for the dual weapons), Blood 2, etc. etc. etc.

Only thing it really "innovated" was that it was on the xbox, limiting to two weapons and the regenerating shields.  So, if UC2 borrowed lots of ideas, Halo did too.  Just saying :)

Don't forget the seamless integration of vehicles. I can't think of another FPS that did that before Halo was released.

Ah yes, I forgot about that, though I don't think people care for vehicles too much anymore do they?

I dunno. I'm not too bothered but maybe the Halo and UT players would. Virtually every FPS has to have an obligatory vehicle section.
