Blizzard and Bungie to team up for a halo MMO?

In the near future Halo fans might be swapping the traditional control pad for a Keyboard to get there fix of Halo’ness.

The superpower of MMO games Blizzard could lend its hand and lead Bungie down the path to MMO success.

I have just read that Rob Pardo, the studio's executive vice president of game design on Edge

"There are a lot of ifs there. It would have to be a very specific proposal. Blizzard are very focussed on our own stuff and I think one of the reasons that we're successful is because we don't get distracted.

"That said, Activision is in the family and Bungie is doing stuff for Activision. If they called us up and wanted some advice or wanted to have a conversation, absolutely, but I do that with a lot of my game developer friends throughout the industry."

He then went on to say: "As far as something specific, like if they were going to do an MMO would we somehow do customer service for them? Wow, thats like really far out there. I really have no idea - that's a lot of speculation. It's possible, I guess."

I really like this new but believe it will take at least 3-4 years until we see this game hitting the digital download market/ shelves and hopefully but then our beloved console will have a new series that will be driving sale, Microsoft could be have spawned a new console but then.
