    Halo isn't as milked as everyone seems to make it out to be. 5 games (Halo 1, 2, 3, ODST, and Halo Wars) within a 9 year period. That's nearly a game ever 2 years, which doesn't seem very bad in my eyes.

    Just don't let M$ know that because even though I don't think Halo is completely milked yet, if they got that idea you know they'd continue to do so even more.

    I see nothing wrong with expanding the universe though. The books are effing great, and from what I understand so are the comics and graphic novels. The anime looks interesting as well. So it's not like the stuff Microsoft is putting out is absolute trash *cough mario franchise*

    This horse isn't just dead, it's been cut up into strips, dehydrated, packed and sold as horse jerky, eaten by 13 year old boys with terrible acne and potty mouths, digested, pooped out and flushed (hopefully) to a sewage processing plant.

    Unless the liberals got to the toilets first, and we're now all drinking it in our water.

    @Me_rock: it won't be enough till we get Halo Football, combining the two of the best selling franchises, Halo and Madden. the day the game releases, the economy will crash since no one will show up for work, and humanity will eventually lose over 85% of its population due to deaths from exhaustion.

    As much as I love the Halo universe, I would not want this to happen anyway. There's no way you could make an individual character go off alone in this game. The game is two armies against each others, not a bunch of mercenaries picking sides.

    Judging from this and previously released concept art from Ensemble's cancelled Halo MMO, I think the game would have taken place in either the Forerunner era (100,000 years before the events of the games) or a while after the Halo 3, with humanity reclaiming the Forerunner civilization. Either of those would make interesting storylines, but I have not, do not and will never want a Halo MMO, thankyouverymuch.

    It probably went kaput because how do you turn Halo into an MMO? Would it have been an RPG or something along the lines of MAG?

    Sorry if I'm not informed on what this Halo project was supposed to be.

    @starscar.exe: Do you guys think MAG will be any good? I heard from a few guys on my PSN list who are in the Beta that's it's really good. I don't know though. I can't wait to see how it goes when it comes out. At first I thought KZ2 would not be all that good, but now I almost have Platinum on it even if it's the first FPS I seriously played with a controller.

    @starscar.exe: MAG is a standard online shooter that supports a huge number of players. It's not a constantly happening battle that you join when you play it.

    @starscar.exe: MAG is not quite an MMOFPS.

    Huxley would have been a better example, but I'm sure there are some that I'm not aware of, as FPS isn't really my cup of tea.

    @mfwahwah: You're right. I couldn't really think of an MMOFPS. Just figured MAG was one because it technically is an MMO.

    I can't really think of many (if any) MMOFPS games out there...

    @Kaneda: I'm in the Beta right now and there's some bugs that need to be worked out, but that's why we're there. It's pretty good thus far, especially when you go into the 128 vs. 128 battles. Which is why I felt MAG was like an MMO. *Hint: Massively Multiplayer Online for those who think I'm talking WoW or some shit*

    @starscar.exe: Probably the best example of an MMOFPS is "Planetside". The game was never too popular, unfortunately. The genre has a lot of potential and it would be nice to see some devs experimenting with it.
