Xbox 720 has Halo 5 being developed for it now says 343 Industries
Examiner writes, "The Xbox 720 and next-generation consoles seem to be a bit of a mystery in some respects, but not to 343 Industries as they seem to be working on next-generation development for Halo 5."
(343 Industries, Halo, Next-Gen)
haha whoever made that picture didnt even try to make it good, you can see that the 5 was just pasted over as a different image rather than drawn on lol
First comment says how crappy the 5 looks in the obviously photoshopped thumbnail picture, the rest of the comments are just bunch of off topic crap agreeing with the guy or claiming there's worse. That's N4G community for ya.
On topic:
""We've done as much prototyping and storytelling and the future arc of the universe as we have on technology.
"So we're definitely working on the future but in some ways it's technologically agnostic at this point."
So there's nothing that states that the guy said Halo 5 is being developed for sure for Xbox 720. And that's Examiner for ya.
You guys didn't even read the article!
Its about development of Halo 5.
Per the ARTICLE!, this is a good move. I'm glad they understand we want the Halo Series to continue.
If you own a business or a team of developers, you want them constantly working on the next big thing. This is what 343 is doing, "working on the next big thing"!
well what did you think they will stop making halo games all of the sudden? in other news uncharted 4,gt6,killzone4,forza,fable,al an wake all will come to next gen system
Halo is the new COD. Theres a new title out every year lately.. So differnt from the first 2, 3 years between 1 and 2 and 3 years between 2 and 3 yet now they are every year.. Rushed cash cows..
You're an idiot. Last generation we only got two Halo games. This generation we have had two major Halo games (Halo 3 and Halo Reach), 1 spin off (Halo 3 ODST), and we are about to get a 3rd major Halo game (Halo 4). The Xbox 360 has been out since 2005.
How is that much different than 4 Uncharted games, 5 Ratchet & Clanks, 4 Resistances, etc?
There hasn't been a Halo out every year. Not even close. Halo Reach came out over two years ago. Halo 3 came out over 5 years ago.
The pace of new releases in the Halo franchise is actually fairly slow considering how wildly popular the series is.
Even before the grand celebration caliber release of the industry leading platform exclusive first person shooter franchise with Halo 4. Halo fans can rest assured that Halo will carry on into the next generation of Microsoft and online gaming. With Halo 5 being developed for the successor of the current generation leading HD platform the "Xbox 720".
News has been breaking out left and right for future next generation platforms. Even rumors of an E3 2013 showing. The world has been on the sidelines patiently waiting for future Xbox confirmation. 343 has just given us the evidence needed to insure that the future of Xbox live is lurking.
Day one purchase for the Xbox 720, and Halo 5 when available wherever videogames are sold.
ahha yeah sure, when someone praises someone that is not sony it is trolling to these sony fanboys lol. You can only write a positive comment about sony or you are trolling here on N4g.
Your PR way of approaching these articles really make my day. Get a good laugh out of it. But seriously another Halo? How much more to the story is there?
Thank you for the support. Halo has a considerable amount of story left from past present and the future of the Halo timeline. There are books, side characters, and sub stories like the Forward to Dawn mini series. Which all have potential to be transferred onto disc for your future gaming experience. The fight is far from over in the Halo universe.
The halo universe is massive. It's as large as starwars an Star Trek. The lore is there. It doesn't have to revolve around cheif. There's the covenant wars, insurgencies, political issues, space development, how the covenant came to be, origin of the flood, the whole forerunner back story. I don't mind more halo so long as they keep it fresh ala halo 4 (which I got today an it's what reach SHOULD have been)
What do you mean another Halo? This is part of a new trilogy announced. And its not as if its being released annually, they are working on the next iteration of the game on next gen tech. Common sense would dictate that it would be prudent to do so.
Do you honestly think sequels to other FPS' like Killzone etc arent being worked on for next gen tech?
This is a good thing, unless of course you want a last minute rush job to get the game out on next gen consoles.
A bunch if you have the right writers & vivid imagination. here's a few stories deep Space exploration, planet colonization. Also it a FPS/RPG in which your a soldier so as long that there are society's or country's,planets governed by humans there's always a story to create & tell with your soldier.
@septic... this is N4G man... land of the SDF! Of course another Halo game is bad.
But if this was the 4th Uncharted game, or 4th Killzone, or 3rd Infamous or 4th Resistance, or 6th GT... it would be all cherries!
N4G... where your bubbles can go down in an instant for saying something like... I love Halo, can't wait for Halo 4... you say something like that in a Halo article, and boom.. SDF are bubble bursting everywhere.
On topic... Heck ya Halo 5 is coming! Maybe it will come out in same time frame that Gears did as a heavy hitter when it first came out. I don't think a new Halo will be ready by next Year when Durango comes out. Could be wrong though.
Because, despite the popular believe, this site is actually filled with Nintendo fanboys, that's why he has 7 bubbles, and he has multiple accounts too.
The better question, is why are there so many ps3 fanboy trolls in here offend in here attacking him and trying to smear him, trying to get people take his bubbles.
Saying he is trolling because he's saying good things about 360 in a 360 article as if It's normal for so many fanboys from Sony to be in a 360 article. Ps3 fanboys feeling purposely and personally attacked simply from hearing positive excited comments about the 360 in places PS3 fanboys shouldn't be that concerned with.
What fanboys from anothing console in vast numbers go into PS4 articles and attackes Sony fans for being excited for PS4? It's almot a mentally ill concept
He has that many bubbles because be's nintendo fan and ps3 fanboys rarely troll nintendo articles in relative to 360 articles.
The "LX-general" is one of the few posters on this site who has strong writing talent. The only other person that come to mine is "Alpha". Most the others are here to try and bully away opinion that don't support their views.
dude you need to go get a blank page of something and just spend you sweet time just writing whatever your way of seen life and how the world works, but you sure are loosing your time in here
I have to admit, I never read LX-General-Kaos' posts, the first few lines always put me off. But man I'm so glad they exist because the reactions they get from people are hilarious! I can't believe how wound up people get over stuff like this. And for that I thank you LX-General-Kaos.
And furthermore announced even before the release of the 360 exclusive, Halo 4. Halo fans can expect that the Halo series will carry on to the next generation Microsoft console with Halo 5 being developed for the successor of the Xbox 360 the "Xbox 720".
News has been breaking out left and right for future next generation platforms. Even rumors of an E3 2013 showing. The 360 gaming community has been on the sidelines patiently waiting for future Xbox confirmation. 343 has just given us no real useful information if you read the article.
Day one purchases for the Xbox 720 and Halo 5 will be available at your local game stores and online as usual.
You know 343 was made to make Halo games right? I mean they are even named after a character in Halo
Bungie no longer makes Halo and they are currently working on Destiny which is a 360/PS3 and next gen title, so there is your new IP you wanted from the FORMER Halo studio.
This shit is getting ridiculous. I'll admit that I'm VERY excited for this but Jesus, Halo 4 isn't even out yet. Might as well write an article on "Halo 7 being developed for Xbox 4". We all already knew this was gonna happen.
You do realize they said new TRIlogy, right? They already announced Halo 5 and 6 when they announced 4. There shouldn't be anything ridiculous about this. Halo universe is huge and there still is a lot of about the lore they haven't told, and this is including the games, books, comics, movies. They still hardly touched upon anything for a universe that is ever expanding.
It's great news, but I still feel a bit melancholy, this console generation feels like it's just hitting it's stride imo, I hope it gets two more years.
Of course. It's the number 1 FPS exclusive on any console. Always gets AAA scores from respectable sites/mags and has a huge fanbase. Only makes sense.
The game is and has been phenomenal from day 1 and judging by the numbers on XBL and how much it sells people still want more Halo, hell they even want a Halo Movie. Cartoon, TV series.
Why should MS deny the people what they want? People on here need to stop hating on Halo and buy a 360 if your that Jelly that you can not play it.
This is so true. Unless Microsoft pays Bungie/Activision the loss that they'll make on the other platforms as a result of timed exclusivity, it's just shortsighted and a terrible decision.
Why are people disagreeing with you? MS made a deal with Bungie that in order for them to leave MS has the right to choose from any of Bungies games and make exclusive or time exclusive if they want, in other words MS has first dibs at Bungies game, also see below:
Bungie's next game Destiny will launch in the autumn of 2013 initially on Xbox 360 and the next Xbox, according to the former Halo developer's contract with new publisher Activision.
The contract, published by the LA Times and made public as part of the lawsuit between Activision and Call of Duty creators Jason West and Vince Zampella, reveals Bungie has signed up to make four "sci-fantasy, action shooter games" in the Destiny universe every other year from autumn 2013 to 2019.
On top of that, Bungie will make four downloadable expansion packs codenamed Comet every other year from autumn 2014 up to 2020.
The first Destiny is for the Xbox 360 and the next Xbox, called the Xbox 720 in the document. It will be sold in shops, but will be boosted by DLC, subscriptions and micro-transactions. Activision and Bungie are considering a PlayStation 3 port for release in 2014. Subsequent Destiny games will be made for Xbox consoles, PlayStation 4 and PC, if they are considered feasible.
You see guys , i told you , what if halo 4 is made for next generation ? it would make everyone interested for it even the people that doesn't like halo , but now it will make people feel like it's milked franchise which it is ...
announcing the game before releasing halo 4 only gonna give that impression to anyone ..
just imagine halo 4 being developed for more then 3 years and released in xbox 3 launch day , it would be something new and exciting just like halo 3 , but this time it will be different since they just get started making it -.- ...
Uh, What? If gamers by now have not liked the Halo franchise, then I doubt that even releasing Halo 4 on the next-gen Xbox would change their minds. And for the record, Halo 4, 5, 6 were pretty much confirmed as soon as 343i debuted Halo 4 as part of the "Reclaimer Trilogy".
Of course it would be. Without Gears and Halo, Xbox would be DEAD for die--hardcore gamers, which are into the fanboy warism. The normal hardcore people will buy one because their friends are playing their CODs, or simply halo, and gears. Those games are no pushovers
Not really a secret, its the Reclaimer Trilogy. From what I hear Halo 4 has an epic story and you'll want to finish the rest of the series.
People might complain about it, but Halo and Master Chief are what helped make the Xbox brand what it is today. I love Halo games and I'll continue to support them, its Halo that drew me to the original Xbox all those years ago.
Only two more days until I get the chance to play Halo 4!
I'm not surprised. 343i is a division of Microsoft, of which Halo is their top game franchise, exclusive to their console. It makes sense that 343 would have access to everything Xbox 360 & beyond 360. sorry refuse to call the next console 720 in part cause that has to be the dumbest name ever .
It sounds to me that he's not sure where the game will end up. Hardware agnostic means it doesn't have a home for sure at the moment. This could be a Windows 8 or Xbox 360 game. He never explicitly states a next gen console release.
The reason they "milk it" is because it makes them a lot of money. It's obvious with the sales it gets, consumers don't want it to just vanish away. When the sales deminish, so will the franchise. Until then, I will enjoy Halo in my cereal:)
Coooool. Xbox games faile to impress me this generation so I only had one for about a year to play Halo 3, Halo Reach, Fable and Gears..I hope thy have more stuff than Halo next time around

Halo HD
Halo 4
Uncharted 1-3

killzone 2-3, trilogy
Killzone (psvita)
Resistance 1-3
Resistance burning skies (psvita)
Wasn't most of the ratchet and clank technically dlc?
Psp is last gen, so like you implied, we ain't counting kz liberation or resistance then.
The things you guys focus on... The story is about, "development has begun on Halo 5 for a next-generation system?"

Are you kidding? Have you read this guy's posts? He goes beyond simple praise. What he does would be more accurately described as "****-riding."
Calvin, I own an xbox and ps3 but hardly play either. I don't consider myself bound to either console in a fanboy fashion.
Do you honestly think sequels to other FPS' like Killzone etc arent being worked on for next gen tech?

Bring on the crystal clear full HD with proper AA.
They are the batteries used in most modern TV remotes, as well as Xbox 360 controllers.
