A while back, on 11/4/2010, there was an article explaining a possible new halo game, with a screen shot of game play. 52 people voted that is was real and 124 people voted it was fake. Now those numbers may change to "real". IGN posted an article "Video Game Wishlist for 2011", along with other games on the list, a 343 Studios Halo Project. Here is what Geddes, IGN editor, says about it:
"Bungie has cut the Halo umbilicus, placing the franchise wholly in the hands of Microsoft's 343 Studios. A quick scan of the studio's job postings reveals that 343 is hiring every single person in the entire world. So I know they've been hard at work. Some of my co-workers think 343's first project is an HD Halo: Combat Evolved remake. I hope they're wrong, as usual. I'm looking for my favorite gaming universe to expand, not overwrite itself. Regardless, if 343 doesn't announce what it's working on soon, I'm going to throw my Dr. Halsey plush doll in a wood chipper. I'm not bluffing, people."
Bungie may be leaving Microsoft after the release of Halo: Reach, but that certainly doesn’t mean that Microsoft doesn’t have other plans for the Halo series. A current job posting on the 343 Industries official site proves that Microsoft wants another Halo game ASAP.
The site clearly states that people should “join 343 Industries and be part of Halo history,”, so it would appear that they are certainly not being shy about the fact that they are working on a new Halo game. Although, the fact that the studio was created in the first place was to take over for Bungie and pump out more Halos.
