[quote=Magic Magnum] 343 cares nothing for Halo, they know nothing about Halo and I really wish Bungie could come back. [/quote] Bungie ended the Chief's story with Halo 3, that is what I consider to be the way Halo was meant to be told. They moved on and I support that 100%, all good stories have an end. Microsoft brings back the chief (despite having a huge universe to pull ideas from) because they know he is an icon and that they can make more money off his appearance then. I wouldn't blame 343 too much, they are really nothing more than pawns, you could see some creativity leaking through in Halo 4, but you could also see the executive oversight. If we see them try to make a Halo game with an original main character, its a good sign.
