Poll: Would you buy Halo 4 if it wasn't made by Bungie?

  • Probably. Halo 4 will be great no matter who make it.
  • Not likely. Halo 4 must be made by Bungie and no one else.

@Einherjan: You are aware that Halo redefined shooters with it's health system, correct? Including the Call of Duty franchise? So if you want to get technical about it, every shooter out there is now like Halo, rather than Halo not being any different than other shooters. Aside from that, the Halo universe goes far beyond the games should one choose to delve in to it. The environments and the characters were unique in my opinion. I just don't seem to recall any other game with the setting being on a giant space ring.

HAlo reach IS halo 4... only it goes backwards in the storyline. Which is a good thiing. Anyway, halo is only halo as we know it because bungie made it.

You do know without Halo.  Xbox would have failed harder then the 3D0 and 360 would never exist.

Neither. Even if Halo 4 isn't great and isn't made by Bungie, I'm sure it will be better than 2 and 3.

Yes but those 100 space marine/alien games came AFTER Halo.

Well, since The third game coming out of Bungie (yes, its been known that  Bungie is working on a third game) is not Halo-related, Halo 4 definitly won't be made by Bungie. Hence, I probably won'y buy it... But if it seems good...we'll see.

I would only buy it if it was made by Data Design Interactive, or even Phoenix Games.

I somewhat disagree with this statement. The game could be drastically different in all aspects of how it's made and told all the way down to how the gameplay works.

I'd buy any game made by anybody as long as it's good.
 
It's kind of a dumb question, why would I not buy a good Halo game just because Bungie didn't make it?  I better question would be, "would you buy a crappy Halo game if Bungie made it?"  My answer would be no, because I'm not going to play a crappy game.

I'd probably care a hell of a lot more if there was a non-Bungie Halo game made. Not that I'd be hyped about it, I care so little about it as it stands that any little bit of interest is a vast improvement.

Needs to be a "Maybe if it's good, no matter which developer makes it" option in the poll.

No Halo 3 wrapped up everything neatly. A Halo 4 would make absolutely no sense. They only way for a new Halo to work without being a prequel like Reach would be to make it like Unreal Tournament and make it completely multiplayer focused.

This is more a question for people that are already fans of the franchise. I've never liked Halo, and unless it was a major departure from the other games, I don't think it would matter who made Halo 4 for me. In that case, I think there would be a better chance of me buying Halo if it was made by someone else. That said, they would probably be forced to follow the same formula, so, either way, I don't think Halo will be the game for me. However, there will be millions of people that who will disagree with me at the inevitable Halo 4 launch day--regardless of the eventual developer.
 
That's a long way to say, it doesn't matter what I think...

I probably wouldn't buy it anyway. The last Halo game I bought was Combat Evolved.

I won't buy it all. 
 
But anyway people buy Treyarch's CoD games don't they?

I didn't buy Halo Wars because it wasn't made by Bungie, so chances are, I would skip out on Halo 4 to.

I thought Bungie was just Bungie in name now only.  Didn't key members of Bungie already leave?

You mean the founding members? If so then only Alex Seropian left in 2002 but Jason Jones is still there.
