As long as Halo's quality stays high then I say bring on the yearly releases! |
I haven't actually played Halo 3 yet, I didn't have an XBOX when it released and I haven't had chance to come back to it yet, I will in the coming months though. I was just going on what other people and my friends have said about the game and I played some of the final missions round a friends house.
That sounds like the right demographic. I wasn't using age as a way to insult the game, I was just pointing out that the game had a huge following amongst younger people, younger people are far more likely to be loyal to the franchise.
And for the last part, I don't agree with that, they need to release games in moderation. Annual releases will guaruntee that the game would be a lower quality than if they spent 2 years or so on development of the game. When Microsoft announced 4 games in one conference, it really did make it look as if they were only in it for the money. There are just far too many Halo games.
Anyway, I hope for the sake of the fans that the quality of the franchise remains high, but I wouldn't expect too much.
It seems Halo fans are taking this "milking" discussion as a direct dig at the franchise and they are starting to act very unreasonable and over-defensive. I would also like to point out that budget ports or handheld games are not retail releases, if you are going to argue, at least do it right.
