That's Co-op, every Halo has Co-op.

Ok, you pulled up the oxford dictionary definition of multiplayer lol doesn't change what I said. 

Without that Halo 3 multiplayer disc that had all the DLC on it, the game would have been worth $29.99.

Lol you keep trying to change your arguement to justify not adding the games into the Halo series, first cause 1 game wasn't made by bungie, which is really weird considering the Halo series is on its 4th different developer and by that logic Halo 4 doesn't count.  Then cause its not a big market release it doesn't count in the series, and it has to have its own online, oh but coop, which everyone considers online, doesn't count...Your fine tuning your requirements to if a game belongs in a series so Wars and ODST wont count, it doesn't matter what I say you'll just come up with a new requirement.  If you don't include them that's fine but the majority of people do and its common understanding that Wars and ODST are games in the Halo series.

My point this whole time is that those games aren't main Halo games. Not that they aren't games. In 2009, Bungie was THE major developer for Halo, that little "Halo 4 doesn't count" point is just ridiculous because ever since 2011, 343 became THE major developer for Halo.

Wether they are main Halo games is irrelavent, they are still apart of the series.  You should have said the main Halo games are not pretty much annualized, I said the SERIES is pretty much annualized then you disagreed.

Not really, my original problem was that you said Halo Wars and Reach came out in the same year.

Would make sense to bring them out every year, MS makes a killing off them with every release.

Then I said mb its ODST and Wars, but my point still stands and you said not really.

Well lets see:

2009: Halo Wars/ODST
2010: Halo Reach
2011: Halo CE Anniversary
2012: Halo 4
2013: Spartan Assault
2014: Halo 2 Anniversary
2015: Halo 5

This has been the norm for a while now......
As a lore fan, couldn't be happier!



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

I really liked halo wars, reach, 1-4.

ODST can be forgotten like it deserves, damn I hated that one. but the rest, I would be interested in a definitive edition for sure.

MS 'leakers' will say anything to trash MS, I'd love to see them stand in front of Billy G and shit their pants.

Haven't they already been coming out with a Halo game every year since Halo 3.

Edit:  Already pretty much annualized


Preventing the hype to fall between 2 games, pretty good strategy in my opinion. And cool for the fans. Still need a timeline with extended universe on cross-media.
