Halo DS Pitched to Bungie "Several Times" Developer is all for a DS instalment as long as "it doesn't drain resources". by Rob Burman, IGN UK UK, July 19, 2007 - It's a rumour that's been flying around the internet for some time but Bungie has finally admitted it's "very likely" another developer created a DS version of Halo. However, the dev said that there has "never been an officially funded or sanctioned development of any sort of DS Halo game" from Bungie. Speaking to Siliconera, Bungie's Brian Gerard and Frank O'Connor candidly tackled the subject of Halo DS. They confirmed that "every once in a while it does come up" and that Microsoft could potentially publish it through THQ, as it did before with Age of Empires: Age of Kings on DS. Having said that, O'Connor doesn't believe the DS is well-suited to the FPS genre: "The problem is the DS is not an FPS console, right? It's not an FPS handheld. There really is no such thing. If we did something cool I would like to see it. But I would rather see the Halo IP on any handheld system applied to a different genre because handhelds don't necessarily do FPS well," he added. So where does that leave Halo DS? Well, O'Connor thought that the brand could work better if it was "side-scrolling shoot-'em-up or whatever, but not necessarily an FPS" and that Bungie would never rule it out. "There is nothing going on right now", O'Connor concluded.

If this comes out and is anything like metroid prime this game is gonna kick ass. FPS shooters have the potential of being awesome games on the ds, if you haven played metroid you have no idea what you are talking about sooooooooooooo before anyone says anything....

It's news to somebody. They're just a bit out of the loop, if it is.

There are a bunch of doctored screenshots along with some nice side scrolling ones, not to mention the GBA emulator video showing off a supposed Halo GBA.

So much talk about this. Haha.

If its made and made right they could bank of the game. Just think about how great the multiplayer on wi-fi would be . Millions of copies would sell in the US not to even mention the milions of copies that would sell overseas. While in japan did you see alot of people playing their ds?

Million(s) is a bit hopeful, I'd say (ESPECIALLY overseas).

Not nearly as many as I thought I would. That's kind of disappointing. I actually saw quite a few people with PSPs.
