It's a trick question. I personally believe Halo 3 will eventually be made. Too many people like Halo for them *not* to. But both Microsoft and Bungee are both going on record saying that there will be no Halo 3.

*Sigh* How many people are going to fall for that? Halo 3 WILL be made. There are already rumors, and Bungie has said that they are working on it. I mean, c'mon...

Actually, according to the latest issue of Game Informer, Bungie/Microsoft has officially denounced any Halo 3. HOWEVER, they are saying that they are making a game codenamed Forerunner. According to the article I read, Forerunner is going to be a Halo 2 sequel, but it may not officially be Halo 3. Basically, Microsoft is being dumb about the whole thing. Anyway, next question:

What was the name of the main character from the Monkey Island series?
Looking for that blessed hope and the glorious appearing of that great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ.
~Titus 2:13
