I seriously cannot believe how childish they are acting..."yeah I don't want to make any more games that break sales records" ....good luck repeating the success without MS marketing and money. [/quote] You are forget Bungie made the game, not microsoft. So inturn if bungie made another game, it will be just as good as halo if not better.[/quote] I think you're wrong An7iherosk8er if Bungie released Halo without the marketing power of Microsoft it wouldn't be as big as it is today. Sure there will be people playing it but I doubt those numbers will be similar to what it is now. Prior to those whole XBOX thing, I was a Playstation fan. It was Halo that got me to choose the XBOX 360 over the PS3. And I wouldn't have known Halo had it not been marketed as agressively as it has been. Halo is what is now not because of Bungie alone. Don't be too egoistical to think that Bungie's skill is enough to beat out developers who are far more celebrated and respected than they are. Without the support of Microsoft this game is not what is today. And Bungie should know that. I'm with halvie here, should they leave Microsoft under these terms, I will have lost my respect for Bungie. Perhaps I may still buy their games but for developers, I don't think they're admirable. ALL I CAN SAY IS THIS... THIS RUMOR HAS DECREASED MY ENJOYMENT OF HALO 3. WHY? NOT BECAUSE I'M A FANBOY BUT BECAUSE OF THIS THE DISCUSSION IS NOW BEING FOCUSED MORE ON BUNGIE LEAVING MS RATHER THAN THE GAME ITSELF. IF THIS IS TRUE BUNGIE, SCREW YOU!
