Bungie was good for the multiplayer part of Halo while 343 is way better at telling a story and Halo 4 single player is the best of the series.

I wouldn't mind MS to buy Bungie back but I wouldn't let them deal alone with the franchise.

Really?  I thought the campaign for H4 was just going through the motions aside from Cortana/Chief.  Reach's finale made more of an impact than anything 4 had.


Totally disagree with you but whatever.

Halo 4's campaign was true to the lore that so many people wanted the games to dive into. It was way more than just the Cortana/Chief development. 


Even so,  it's not like that end result brings anything interesting to the table as far as story is concerned.  Each set piece, gameplay scernario, etc. had all been done before in previous MC Halos, just with new names.  Earth threatened again by a new foe? Golly gee!  I'm sure pumped to do this all over again!

As long as the Halo games continue to be fun, millions of fervorous fans will save Earth numerous times if permitted. You make it seem like mainline Halo games were all on Earth, when just 2 & 3 the planet was shown.

I guess you're not a fan of any franchise.

I won't play mine until I finish Sunset :/, I will lose my touch if I don't play it.

MS is well served with 343i. They just need to buy 3 studios to make me happy:
-Platinum Games or give Kamya a studio with a large budget.
-Remedy, whenever they humbly see that they're better with MS.
-CD Projekt
All of'em wanna be independent. Damn it you.


This I agree with,hoping someday Microsoft will buy Remedy Entertainment since Sam Lake is good friends with Phil Spencer

I think MS should acquire L4D IP and work closer with Valve in order to have their IPs published on their platforms.

Valve are not actively commercializing some of their successful IPs and MS could use a part of their fan base on Xbox.

It's a shame they don't wanna be acquired. I think Sam's great ideas work better with big funding companies like MS; plus the latter is not like Activision and EA that have some inflexible timelines.

"Should Valve one day decide to resurrect Left 4 Dead for a third instalment" considering Valve have a problem with the number 3 I don't think Turtle Rocks involvement matters or not.


I think they should make Portal 3 before anything else xD  Portal is amazing

Though Half-Life 3 is the most requested so should prob make that since it would sell the most

Portal 2 is such a tuff act to follow tho, it was a masterpiece.

I want to see Left 4 Dead 3

Agreed. One of the best games last gen IMO.
