Microsoft has distanced itself from rumours that it will be splitting with Halo developer Bungie, claiming it never said anything of the sort.
There's been no such announcement,
We continue to celebrate the tremendous success of the global phenomenon that is Halo 3.
a spokesperson told Eurogamer.net. The claim first came from a blog spreading the news all over the net. Click here to read our version of the story posted earlier today.

That's just a fancy way of saying that we are counting your money.

LOL don't be sore because its the best selling video game of all time;););)

Im glad its not official yet.

In fact I hope that Microsoft is smart and has Bungie do a new IP (maybe even a new wbox Live arcade game would be interesting)
