"Microsoft has long held a monoply on the excellent Sci-Fi tale known as Halo..."

No shit Sherlock, Microsoft held a monopoly on their own franchise, those bastards.

Technically it was Bungie's franchise. It's not truly theirs unless they built it themselves. They just bought the use of it. That's why Halo turned to shit after Bungie left and Destiny is more Halo than Halo is now.

They own it, it's theirs. You wouldn't say that every thing that you bought isn't technically yours because you didn't make it.

It's the truth tho. You only buy the right to use something. it doesn't make it yours. It doesn't matter if you build a toaster or a work of art, you create something with your mind heart and hands and it's yours forever, and no one can take that away from you. Take the Mona Lisa for example. The painting was purchased by countless people/ museums since it's creation but it's known throughout history that it's one true owner, it's creator is Leonardo da Vinci. So yeah I would say that because it's true, you are only purchasing the right to use that item in any way you see fit. That's how copyright/patent law works.
