So how long until 343 stops givng Halo games numbers?
Okay so most series have a point where they stop putting semi-honest numbers in their name and start putting subtitle words that begin with RE- (Resurrection, Retribution, Redemption, Return, Reloaded, Revolutions, Recurring, Repetitive, Recon, Reach, etc.) , like the series is now an email conversation or something.
Halo, excluding the absolute worst titles but including Halo 4, has remained faithful to the number-rule of sequel nomenclature. But how long will this keep up? Almost everyone stops at 3, Call of Duty stopped at 4, Fast and Furious stopped at 1 but paradoxically went back to it for 5...
Edit: If you think they'll keep using numbers, when do you think they'll start using roman numerals?

2 RepliesAre they even permitted to name a game "Halo 7"? I mean, they'd be stepping on holy ground right there.

Wouldn't be surprised if they starting naming them by years like what EA does with Madden. Halo: 2014 Halo: 2015 Halo :2016 Quality milk

2 RepliesI think we're going to see the next two games titled Halo 4: II and Halo 4: III.

Probably after 7.

5 RepliesWhat about Final Fantasy or The Elder Scrolls? They remain faithful to the 'number-rule'.

1 ReplyProbably after 6 to be honest, (unless they make spinoffs like Reach and ODST) if they still make Halo after that. GTA is weird with that as well. It went from GTA3 to GTA San Andreas, to a bunch of portable games, then GTA4.

2 RepliesUsually companies either stick with numbers or roman numerals, why would they switch???
-
2 Fast 2 Furious has 2's in it so it was numbered.

They are only going to get rid of the numbers for spin off games.
-
I would assume that they will number the games that are actual sequals, and have specific title for spin-off games within the Universe, like Reach or ODST.
