There may not be a Halo 3!

Shock! Horror!
Yes, you read it right. There might not be a Halo 3!








Don't worry, that's because it'll be called Forerunner.
Other interesting facts...
  • It will include HUGE environments.
  • It will be somewhat open - i.e. A mission where you have to go invade/destroy an armory will determine how much weaponry you have for the next mission and how much the opposing forces will have.
  • Will have a definite mission structure - but still be somewhat open.
  • 4 Player Co-Op
  • A gameinformer source (not named) HAS SEEN THE GAME IN ACTION. He also explains that the reason Bungie says there is no Halo 3 is because it will most likely be called “Forerunner”

Well... I guess that's a little more interesting than a Halo 3.

Maybe it will have multiplayer that actual focuses on (gasp!) skill instead of weapon control. But probably not.

Will it also have... oh I dunno... a new ENGINE?!

I sure hope they are not going to try and milk out this franchise by using the same engine over and over again...

I havn't even played Halo 2 yet... hmm

Well if it's for the 360 then it would have to be a new engine.

This is ridiculous. Bungie has been saying all along that their next game would not be Halo 3. And it's not that Halo 3 is going to be called Forerunner; this is a new game entirely.

The title made my life happy for a split second. Then agony. Oh the pain!

But Bungie are such Microsoft bitches, making Halo 2 only vista compatable.

Is that shit I can smell on your nose, Bungie?

Full Auto sucks donkey balls. I downloaded a demo of it off Xbox Live. It only gave me a choice of 2 cars and there was only 1 track available which sucked hairy gorilla penis.

Yes, it's called "not biting the hand that feeds you". Us in the gaming industry like money because it allows us to actually, you know, do stuff. Idiot.

Roffle. Used sucks gorilla penis.

As for the subject at hand, PAH. The non disclosure policy of bungie means that this information is fake, period. And if it turns out that it isn't fake (which by the way is extremely unlikely on their salary), prepare to see the bungie team shrink by one.

Also, please note how bungie said that their next game would not be Halo 3. They didn't say their next game would not be CALLED Halo 3. They said it would not BE Halo 3. Meaning that their NEXT game will not be Halo 3. This means that they might make Halo 3 in the future, but it will not be their NEXT game. Do you understand?

Good.

I remember reading an issue of Time where Bill Gates said that the PS3 would be released right into Halo 3. If they are planning to keep it like that then there won't be a Halo 3 until the end of next year.

If they say Halo 3: Forerunner will come out in time with the PS3, add 2 and a half years to the date and you might even be early for it's release.

The delays in the gaming industry are appalling. You sure as hell couldn't get away with it in the movie industry.

Yeah, mother****in' revolution!

Onto the topic...


You all realise how Halo ends right? It's just a mirror of Marathon's ending...

The Covenant are worshipping an AI who went rampant and survived the undoing of the universe, believing this would make him god.

And don't ask me what Marathon is...

A note to Havoc: Don't bother playing it, it's not worth the time or money, just real a plot summery of what happened.

And you can't hate Full Auto based on the demo. Rent the full game. I ****ing love it.

Oh, and you can't realy complain about Bungie using the same engine...They made 2 games. Maybe if they made 4 or 5 like Clancy or some shit EA puts out...

Hmmmm... it's possible I guess.

:

Actually, I can. Demo's are designed to give the player a feel for the game, to showcase a few (if not all) of the features.

:
Oh, and you can't realy complain about Bungie using the same engine...They made 2 games. Maybe if they made 4 or 5 like Clancy or some shit EA puts out...
Actually, they've made 15 games. Gnop!, Operation Desert Storm, Minotaur: The Labyrinths of Crete, Abuse, Oni, Pathways Into Darkness, Pimps At Sea, Marathon, Marathon 2: Durandal, Marathon Infinity, Myth: The Fallen Lords, Myth II: Soulblighter, Halo: Combat Evolved, Halo: Custom Edition and Halo 2.

Unless you mean Halo games, then it's 2... technically 3.

:
Also, please note how bungie said that their next game would not be Halo 3. They didn't say their next game would not be CALLED Halo 3. They said it would not BE Halo 3. Meaning that their NEXT game will not be Halo 3. This means that they might make Halo 3 in the future, but it will not be their NEXT game. Do you understand?

Good.
It's clear you didn't actually read the article...

Game Informer has learned through its network of industry spy pirates that Bungie’s next release will be a Halo Xbox 360 project. However, as of now, it’s not even called Halo 3.

See? Their next game IS a Halo game. And they DID say it would not be CALLED Halo 3.

I admit the demo sucked...but honest to god the full game is better.

I mean they haven't made 15 games with the same engine.

And excuse me for not catching written sarcasm.

I think the new ideas sound good, but calling it Forerunner and all is wierd.
Halo 2 was a dissapointing because of the lack of good storyline and too much shooting and walking

So you want to make it...Not Halo 3?

Do you even know who the Forerunners are?

(And also, Halo as a series has a story many of you have barely heard about...it goes so much deeper than the games)

Wow , a topic of gorilla penises on discovery? Weird.

I cant believe that I have to wait till the 23rd of march before the 360 comes out! Stupid n.z always is last in the line , it really sucks , In regards to full auto , what types of cars are there? are there cars from the 30's , 40's 50's and 60's??
The cars are mainly the reason why i want to buy this.

I wouldn't call ILB part of the story.

But yes, Marathon, the books, the soon to be out Graphic Novel, stuff from the Mac Halo 0, stuff from HBO...

Tons o' crap.

And by Not Halo 3...I meant that you hated the amount of shooting and walking...it's an FPS for christs sake.
