Not rebooting it yet and doing a prequel... If gears performs commercially as well as it is critically, it could be a great middle ground.

Kicks the reboot question down the road but it also could reinvigorate the franchise.

Yeah, it's not a terrible idea, a prequel origin story focused on John's forced conscription at 6 years old, Spartan training, Blue team's early missions against the Insurrectionists, and Blue Team's fights against the Covenant pre-Halo 1, presumably ending with their mission on Reach during it's fall that separated Chief from the rest of Blue Team for Halo 1. As long as they follow established storyline there from Eric Nylund's Fall of Reach book and other sources, it kicks the can down the road on the big to reboot or not to reboot and how much to reboot question, let's them cut their teeth on something brand new before they attempt something as daunting as rebooting either of the two trilogies.
