Halo thinks it's board games' a blast

There are no rocket launchers in Monopoly, and Scrabble would simply be a different game if firebombs were involved.

But the typically genteel world of board games is about to welcome a neighbor from the surlier side of town: Halo Interactive Strategy, a board version of the huge-selling, hyper-violent "Halo" series of video games.

1 - Halo really is turning into the new star-wars.
Microsoft is merchandizing halo like mad, just like lucas arts and star-wars.

7.1 - Well, take Final Fantasy
they also had drinks, movies, lighters, clothing, keychains, jewlery, plushies, trading cards, action figues, comic books, manga, weapon replica's, and the list goes on.

If people will buy your merchandise then why not sell it, halo's obviously big enough.

So I guess this is what MS means when they say they'll "Explore not exploit" the halo franchise
