Sea of Thieves and Grounded are bigger games than 343’s Halo. Even Crash and Spyro in 2025 are bigger than Halo. MS aren’t scared to do shit, Halo’s coming to PS5 and Switch 2 this year.

Sonic is still the face of Sega.

SEGA also hasn’t made a console in many years. Sonic wasn’t enough to carry it, which is his point. Halo wasn’t enough to carry Xbox anymore and continued to worsen (critically and commercially) over time.

Mario remains the face of Nintendo because he also continues to contribute considerably to driven hardware.

That is also what we're doing now again too!

None of my friends and family from back then game anymore

Maybe they want to space them out and keep a few releases for next year. They'll eventually do an EA Access type sub on ps5 so they'll need the entire library over.

I don't think MS are "too scared". Rather, they are figuring out what the hell to do with the franchise. Halo Infinite didn't work out. They have now changed engines and need to figure out what they hell they're going to do with Halo. They will port the MCC over to Playstation in time, imho.

I agree, they're looking at what to do here, but also realizing that it's a final bandaid to rip off.

They could port Halo MCC or they could release a Halo CE remake or maybe both. They could also simply reboot Halo.

Regardless of what their plans are, I don't think we'll hear about it until the next phase of their multiplatform announcements which will probably happen after the Switch 2 is revealed.
