Halo 3 was the game 360 owners waited for, i got my 360 when Bioshock came out which was 1 month before Halo 3. Of course i also got Halo 3 and many other games, it was pretty much the fall of 2007 which made me buy a 360.

Reach while good, it has a strong compeditor named COD which is a bigger franchise now than it was back then. Halo is big though and it will have legs, i still say that by the end of this generation Halo Reach will be the most sold game on the 360, even though it came it short of 1 million on COD MW2. The reason of course being that COD gets updated now, wheres Halo probably has at least 2 years before something new in the Halo franchise happens and its not even Bungie so we don't know how that will turn out.

I believe Bungie will return with a new Halo game for the next system in 2013/14. Halo 3 was supposed to be last Halo game ever in the franchise and the completion top the Halo trilogy. 3 years later Halo: Reach was launched. 2 years later Halo 3: ODST expansion of Halo 3 was launched.  Last game creates more hype and boosts sales exponentially especially in America, it is like a farewell tour of a big rock band who keep touring years and years after announcing their last ever tour.

Halo 3 was the end of the trilogy not the franchise... We all knew there would be at least another Halo by Bungie on Xbox 360. Bungie's 10 year deal with M$ is up, they have now made a 10 year deal with EA (or was it Activision im not sure) so the next game and probably franchise that comes from Bungie will probably not be Xbox exclusive.

The Halo franchise will contine to be created by another studio and when you take into account the talent Microsoft has put into that studio, i do think the next Halo will be great, maybe not bungie great, but fun nonetheless.
