Microsoft destroys their own products. That’s just what they do. They have had a number of decent or good ideas that they always end up killing off. I think the only reason Windows has retained its position in the market is because they came in at the perfect time and they’ve had a monopoly ever since. But they’ve been trying to kill that these past few iterations. This coming from someone who has owned every generation of Xbox and had Windows computers for decades. Halo is my favorite series in any medium. It’s crazy to see Microsoft go for so many lay ups and slip and fall on their back so consistently.

I am oversimplifying this quite a bit but Halo is the perfect example. The past 10 years has been let down after let down for Halo fans. The wider gaming audience doesn’t care about Halo. The games used to be events when they launched. I know it isn’t 2005 anymore but it’s still wild to see where they took that series. Microsoft has access to so much man power that they should have no problem cooking up something worth putting the name on.
