Are you simply suggesting that some of the Halo 4 revenues can/might be used to support new first party titles?


Well, I don't see how that wouldn't make sense. If they can afford taking more risks then that's great.


I mean that if 343 succeeds with Halo 4 then Microsoft may gain trust in newwe developers and IPs. 343 could show MS that risks can be great and rewarding. By risks, I mean signing new developers and making new IPs. 

We all know that it would take a great company and a lot of trust from Microsoft to let a studio take the reigns of such a great franchise. Microsoft took the risk by having 343 develop Halo 4. Hopefully, there will be more risks in the future with new developers and IPs.

Sorry if that didn't make any sense, Thursdays are my Kyptonite.


LOL....Making a new Halo isn't a risk, its a certainty. The only risk is having a new team handle a project Bungie isnt working on. The groundwork was already laid for them. This is not an indicator of a new IP. Microsoft is not interested in risking new AAA ips unless they can pay a well known dev to make it for them.

So I'm spewing out crap! Well, at least you answered the question. You seemed to be the only one who has. Thanks for the opinion!


Hold on a sec let me look for the article where Microsoft was talking about the risk of new Ips. BRB.
