    When it Started Halo was a relatively unknown game, but it quickly gained a huge fan base as well great lore ( i just happen to love the stuff), 
    its sad to see the franchise end with Halo: Reach .

    Has any Halo game ever been "relatively unknown"? That's news to me.

    If Halo is over as a franchise, I will remove 3 sections of my spinal column, bend over backwards and eat my own ass.

    @Three0neFive:  Well i suppose they will "milk that cash cow " with things like the movie and action figures etc.
    but i don't think they will make another game, but i suppose if they wanted to they still have plenty of the story they haven't covered.

    He must have a fuzzy memory of the history of Halo.  Fact remains this game was hyped up from the very beginning.

    @empfeix: Halo didn't become a big deal until MS picked it up. Before that (this is still before release) it was pretty much ignored at E3. It was also a buggy mess with crap gameplay.

    You do realize they already made an entire development house to crank out Halo games for the next decade? They already have at least one well into production. There will be at least 5 Halo games in the next few years.

    This. Halo 4's already in the pipe w/343.  What's more interesting will be to see what Bungie makes after walking away from Halo.

    Other posts have beat me to it, but ya, 343 is going to be continuing the Halo franchise. Microsoft wouldn't let their biggest exclusive title die. I just hope 343 knows what they're doing; Halo: Reach left me sour on the Halo franchise.

    OMG. I had QQ wrong all this time too!
     
    I don't have a 360 so not too sure I would miss Halo too much, but I have nephews that are well into the franchise. They'd be relieved to see it continue.

    Halo 1 when it was brand new.  The popularity of the series quickly went from "Oh I love this game that noone else knows about" to "holy shit there are 50K people lined up around the street for Halo 2".

    Really? Because I bought the xbox when Halo was new and all my friends who had played some game in their life already knew what that game was. I've never had to explain what Halo is.
