Bungie Studios has reclaimed its independence, but what does it all mean? In this interview, Content Manager Frank O'Connor tells GameDaily BIZ that negotiations began about a year ago and that the deal is "an evolution of Bungie's independent spirit." More within...
Not every Halo game has been a banger, but the franchise still has a raft of the greatest games of all time.
Infinite is a dumpster fire and as much as I like ODST, in no universe it ranks above Halo 2. This list is trash.
Best to worst: Halo 3, Halo 2, Halo Reach, Halo CE, Halo 4, Halo ODST, Halo Infinite, Halo 5.
The Xbox 360 was a fantastic console in its day with some truly classic titles, but what are the seven best games for the console?
I'll go with,
Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon, Culdcept Saga, Shadow Complex, Ace Combat 6 with the flight stick,A Kingdom for Keflings, A World of Keflings.
Bonus Kinect Games: Happy Action Theater and Sesame Street.
*Skyrim was so bad on PS3 that it almost deserves to be #1*
Was this made by a.i.? No human being would put Shadowrun, Fable III, and Splinter Cell: Conviction into a list of the 7 best Xbox 360 games.
Would love to play Ace Combat6 on PlayStation, but Xbox decided to buy exclusivity and keep it off a competing platform.
The only mainline game I never played except for one level at a friends place. Game sold less than any other in the series if I remember correctly.
When the current gen XBOX offering is so lacking people need to refer to games released two generations back....
The Xbox 360 launched in North America 18 years ago, and is now officially old enough to buy you a drink in Europe.
Great platform, and many of its games (not bc) still hold up well to this day. Like the PS3, I keep a 360 hooked up for those games you can't play any other way.
The last gasp of greatness from XBox, you are missed, except the RROD that was lame, but amazing exclusives until the Kinect dropped.
I really enjoyed my X360, some great exclusives on it. Used to play the shit out ot Blue Dragon and Lost Odyssey, two masterpieces
Seems like too many have busted their nut way too soon with the first announcment. I even seen *the Captian* talking crazzy radical sh*t in the 40gig PS3 thread, what was that Halo Sigma?.
than to dance on the corpses of MS fanboys, but yes it was a bit premature.
Still, I don't care how Bungie/MS happily spin this, the industry is going to look at it as a negative and it will be something that I believe will influence the decisions of future MS partners. It seems if you sign with MS you are giving up your creative freedom.
I'm trying very hard to see where you're comming from.
I don't think people/devs care as long as they can make money and buy games.
I don't think its PR spin theres an actual respect and pantner ship there. We don't know if MSFT's restructuring/cleaning house etc. Haters and fanboys will look at this as an negative, if anything this will give new devs hope of being the new Bungie.
I'm sure Bungie wants to be its own enity and not labled as MSFT's little B*tch and MSFT not wanting the image of depending on Bungie to pull the 360's weight this is something both parties have been talking about for ages.
MSFT never bought Bizzar Creations so they didn't lose anything there.
Could you imagine the pressures Bungie was under think about that, if they stayed it would have stripped their creativity from stress.
what to bet we see a halo on ps3
Or "Bungie said its primary focus will remain developing for Microsoft's platform."

This is Bungie going from First party developer (part of MS and operating by MS rules) to second-party developer (independent but captive, operating by their own rules but solely for 360).
No amount of wishing for Halo for PS3 will make it happen, kids.
Especially since it makes no financial or creative sense for either Bungie (who are clearly sick-n-tired of working halo for ten years) or MS.
Want Halo? Buy a 360.
Don't want it?
Then move along...nobody's going to force you.
