Microsoft is too Influential

Hey guys. The purpose of this post is to point out that 343 could’ve done a lot more with the campaign, multiplayer, and map production, but Microsoft has a negative impact on 343, and thus, Halo. Halo has been Microsoft’s crown jewel. It saved the original Xbox, and has kept it alive. After MCC, and some would argue after H4, Halo has declined. What Microsoft needs to do is step back, let 343 take their time, and then maybe get better profit from waiting.

I agree with this. I believe that Microsoft pushed the deadline on H5. If they gave them more leeway, a better product would have been launched.

Well, 343i is an internal part of Microsoft, they’re one in the same.

And we don’t talk about the train wreck called MCC… no idea what happened, but damn it was bad.
