What would make more sense is Microsoft buys Bungie and Bungie has multiple studios under its wing including 343i to make Halo while the other studios under Bungie can make what they want. Halo will stay with Microsoft till XBox isn't a thing anymore.Bookmark this thread for future reference.
After the handling of the Halo franchise by 343 Studios(mass departures, uncertain direction/future, delays, etc) for Microsoft I have a very strong feeling their have been "discussions" between Bungie and Microsoft to
come back aboard the I.P. that Bungie created: HALO. "Feelers sent out?" "Cross promotion discussions?"
This will either come in the form of buying the I.P. back outright from Microsoft(with agreements in place that MS will still have HALO games for their console/PC platforms day and date with future releases) or a "partial sale/co-ownership of
the I.P" where Bungie will make the Halo series available to other platforms from Sony, Nintendo and Nvidia. My gut instinct is that we'll see a "co-ownership/partnership" between Bungie and Microsoft.
Let's face it, Halo has floundered under 343 along with Microsoft's management of the I.P.
Halo needs fresh, experienced developers along with management to help guide it into the future. What better company to do that then the I.P's creator in Bungie?
P.S. Wouldn't be surprised at all to hear/read about a delay of the single player Halo Infinite Campaign until Summer 2022.

Maybe it would be a great change. Remember how Halo 1 had that horror vibe with the Flood?That won't feel like Halo anymore.
Lol. Just lol.Why? They have Destiny which is more interesting and better in almost every way IMO.
a halo spinoff from id would be great343 stinks. They need to do something. Shit, I would play a id software Halo game.
I've never even heard of a console war template.It's difficult to imagine a lot of things when you only talk in console war templates.
What you are saying doesn't make any sense. You are talking about Microsoft selling Halo at least partially, how on earth would that benefit them?Bookmark this thread for future reference.

It's okay to have a bad take but this part cracked me up. I don't think I can agree with any of what you said given what we know of both companies.Bookmark this thread for future reference.

What were you thinking?
P.S: Next time you have "a strong feeling" about something, throw your keyboard away.
Why would Bungie want to do that? Unless Microsoft offers Bethesda buy-out money, I don't see it happening.
It really isn’t. Destiny has amazing gunplay, as does 343’s Halo, but both Bungie and 343’s Halo campaigns and matchmaking systems decimate Destiny.
As to OP’s prediction, no sadly. Unless Microsoft re-acquire Bungie, not happening.
Fan fiction is allowed
So this is all based on nothing? Lol.
Microsoft aren’t selling the halo IP, not a chance in hell. They’d be absolutely idiotic to. At most they would let bungie develop a game halo game for them. Given that bungie left MS because they didn’t want to make Halo anymore, and the shot show that was the story in destiny, would MS even want that? Halo 5 has the best MP in the series IMO, I don’t want bungie back.
What a load of shit.
I have a 'feeling' this thread is going to be closed.
