Necroing a thread to make a useless post? Halo is not a Cashcow because it is retaining continuity rather than beating a dead horse (or cash pinata rather). 343i is still creating quality content for their next games. If you think this makes Halo a cashcow, then that must make Square Enix an even bigger cash cow for doing wonderful remakes/ports of older Final Fantasy games.
*facepalm* I meant on the majority, it's a cash cow. Yes, they make a whole lot better content for the game, but it is still a massive cash cow. 343i does make each game better than the last, yes it does have continuity, however the game is just a cash cow. We don't need a H2 remake, yet they're still doing one. All 343i has to do is unlock the H2EK and a proper modding team can make H2 Anniversary for free and release to everyone in the community.
1) Halo4 is their first game and hasn't even been released yet
2) This isn't exactly the mentality of MS. The execs would however go for something that has a real ROI. Licensing an EK, for example, would be one way to do that (of course then they have to support it, instead of just releasing and walking away). Something they may do in the future on later Halo games should they decide to come back to the PC. It would take someone at 343i with a strong desire to make this happen though.
