Forums - Microsoft - 343 General Manager: 'I want to run Halo like George Lucas ran Star Wars'

Well, I'd say that's pretty accurate actually. The only difference is, Lucas ruined what he original created where as she is ruining what Bungie created.

 

Maybe in 10 years, someone else will take over Halo and the main character will turn into a woman.


not really. Halo 3 was boring, 1 was fun but the only great halo bungie made was 2.

You mean you wanna run it... to the ground?

Master Chief Collection was episode 1.

The first two games changed the entire gaming industry. Halo 4 and 5 are changing nothing.

So Master Chief shot first. Or did Church try first? Are they gonna add the Red VS Blue cast into 4K remastered Halo 1. And say they were always there?

Well its different time. The OG xbox had the first online console shooter. Halo 4 had a great story. And 5 seems to expand on that with a good multiplayer.

Yeah, but it's pretty clear that the 343 Halo isn't going to have the impact that the Bungie Halo did. That's all I meant. Bungie was talented enough to rewrite how we play FPS. 343 isn't. They're simply taking an old IP and throwing in some COD mechanics and calling it a day. They aren't revolutionizing anything the way Bungie did. 

 

Just because Bungie isn't making it anymore, doesn't mean Halo fans need to throw them under the bus. It's totally possible to admit that Halo isn't what it use to be with 343 and still enjoy the games for what they are. 



So in other words create a trilogy that most fans hate and then sell the rights to series to Mickey Mouse?



So, she wants to give some of them to somone else to direct? They may turn out the best of the series then.

And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”
