I know the Zoomer-focused Halo of the past decade wasn't everyone's favorite, but with the success of the MCC in the past couple of years, and the "return to form" approach to Infinite's core loop and aesthetics, I wonder if Halo truly is making a comeback as a franchise.

It would be an uphill battle.

A return to form is like a return to the past. Halo was so popular because it was so DIFFERENT from everything else at the time. But to chase that again… well it won't be that cool unique experience anymore. It will just feel familiar, but fail to really inspire.

It was 11 years from Super Mario bros to Mario 64. Huge leap right? It's been 14 years since Halo 3. And yet it all looks so much the same.

I'd be thrilled if it came back. But let's just say I'm not buying an Xbox for this one.
