Microsoft’s Press Conference Came and Went, No New Halo

No New Halo E3 2008

I found it very interesting that we got no mention of anything in the Halo universe at Microsoft E3 press conference. While they did drop a few bombshells, I fully expected to hear some details on Halo Wars, Peter Jackson’s Halo Chronicles games, and maybe even a new Halo game from Bungie. It appears that’s not the case.

The Bungie website is shut down with a service message. There’s a timer that’s counting down until around 10am July 16th. Will we hear about their next project then? Will Microsoft have Halo Wars details later in the week? Considering Gears of War 2 didn’t get as much face time as many expected, I figured Microsoft would have more in store for Halo fans since we know there is a lot already in the pipeline.

We’ll see what happens as E3 continues to roll. Stay tuned.

  1. Bungie shut down their site out of shame. LOL

    Something tells me that we will hear some Halo news once that countdown is done. Bungie and their trickery.

    They probably weren’t ready but I’m not surprise if we do hear a Halo game mentioned by Bungie pretty soon.

    Honestly, the MS press conference did nothing for me. I’m getting FFXII for PS3, so the announcement changes nothing in my case. I don’t download videos, and most of the other titles they announced were expected.

    I think the only thing big (that caught a lot buzz that is) was the unexpected announcement of XIII going on the 360. That’s the biggest highlight, atleast Versus is still an exclusive.
