Dude, you're on CRACK! Take 2 owns the console rights to Halo and Oni and future bungie games, so EVEN IF BUNGIE WANTED, they couldn't do that. 'Most PC and Mac sites know about this' ? BS... I know people who work at PC and Mac game news sites, and they haven't heard a THING about this.

And that quote from Jason Jones? it was taken out of context, and does not specifically say that Halo WOULD BE a FPS.

In short, cash your chips and run, because there are a ton of people here who are willing to start a flame war with you. Sure, you got people riled up, mad at you, but you have no proof for what you're saying.
