All the official sources, like Halo Waypoint, refer to this game as Halo Xbox One instead of Halo 5. Has anyone confirmed that it's called Halo 5? <font style="papyrus">[[User:Bioniclepluslotr|<font color="lime">'''Bioniclepluslotr'''</font>]]</font> 18:32, 10 June 2013 (EDT) | |||
== | :I can't reasonably seeing them calling the game anything else, but you're right. At no point has 343 ever used the title "Halo 5".

:::::Even if I strongly think that this game is Halo 5, there is still no official information as it being called Halo 5 or being the second installment in the Reclaimer Trilogy, etc. But instead of immediately moving the page, maybe we should just wait for the next Bulletin or a press release from Halo Waypoint (something more than just the trailer). I'm pretty sure that 343 will confirm or deny it. Well, either that, or they don't know how to properly name a game / announce it. If this week's Bulletin doesn't clearly state that the game is Halo 5, then change it to Halo Xbox One or whatever. Or we may as well do it today, but it will possibly be changed again. '''Edit:''' Well it seems that even the Waypoint forum is called "Halo Xbox One"... This really doesn't make any sense to me. If it were Halo 5, why wouldn't they call it such? And if it were a spin-off set between H4 and H5, then why wouldn't they use a subtitle...[[User:Imrane-117|Imrane-117]] ([[User talk:Imrane-117|talk]]) 20:01, 10 June 2013 (EDT) | |||

::::::Just my two cents - [http://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/detail/111609fe-d53c-4400-b4d6-44ae3629dda3/halo-xbox-one here] it says "The award-winning franchise continues on Xbox One, beginning in 2014. '''Final title''' to be announced at a later date." That may mean the title "Halo Xbox One" (and perhaps Halo 5) are just temporary/working titles, and aren't permanent. So just a heads up before moving the page to "Halo Xbox One", which IMO wouldn't make sense as a video game title especially for the Halo series.--'''''[[User:Killamint|<span style="color:Black; font-family: Arial;">Killamint</span>]]''''' <small>['''''[[User talk:Killamint|<font color="Red">Comm</font>]]'''''|'''''[[Special:Contributions/Killamint|<font color="Black">Files</font>]]''''']</small> 20:43, 10 June 2013 (EDT) | |||
:::::::Well, since we know "Halo: Xbox One" is '''not''' going to be the actual title, I think "Halo 5" is our best option, unless we ''really'' want to change it to "Unnamed Halo game (2014)". [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] ([[User talk:Alex T Snow|talk]]) 21:34, 10 June 2013 (EDT) | |||
Nobody's saying "Halo Xbox One" is going to be the final title. Odds are we'll move the page then move it right back when it's officially announced as Halo 5. But we don't get to call it Halo 5 until either 343 Industries or Microsoft call it that. That being said, what do we think sounds more appropriate for a title: "Halo Xbox One" or "Halo (Xbox One)"?--[[File:Emblem 1.jpg|20px|bottom]][[User:Rusty-112|<span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:13pt;color:blue;">''' Rusty'''</span><span style="font-size:13pt;color:red;">'''-'''</span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:13pt;color:blue;">'''112'''</span>]] [[Halopedia:Administrators|<span style="color:red; font-family:Arial">'''''Admin'''''</span>]] <sup>[[User talk:Rusty-112|<font color="blue">'''comm'''</font>]]</sup> 21:53, 10 June 2013 (EDT) | |||
:Halo 5, definitely. Halo (Xbox One) leaves too much open for confusion[[User:Ocean Soul|Ocean Soul]] ([[User talk:Ocean Soul|talk]]) 22:24, 10 June 2013 (EDT) | |||
Whatever name we make up for this article will be just that, a made up name. Whether it's "Halo (Xbox One)" or Halo 5 we're still just making it up. I personally feel that Halo 5 is much more descriptive, as it implies a mainline game, as opposed to a spin-off like Spartan Assault. If you're going to say we can't call it Halo 5 until 343 calls it that, we can't really call it anything else either. Whatever we call it will be our own invention. --[[User:Weeping Angel|Weeping Angel]] ([[User talk:Weeping Angel|talk]]) 22:47, 10 June 2013 (EDT) | |||
The | :The title in the trailer just says ''Halo'', so perhaps ''Halo'' (2014)? <font style="papyrus">[[User:Bioniclepluslotr|<font color="lime">'''Bioniclepluslotr'''</font>]]</font> 08:21, 11 June 2013 (EDT) | ||
Look, we can't just ignore our own policy when it suits us. The game has not yet been called Halo 5 by any official source so until it is, we should not label the page as Halo 5. Rather, we should use an official name. The way I see it, we either go by the trailer and do as Bioniclepluslotr said, calling it Halo (2014), or we go by 343 and MS and call it Halo Xbox One. Personally I'd go with the trailer as the term "Halo Xbox One" is likely to differentiate this title from Halo Combat Evolved.--[[User:Soul reaper|Soul reaper]] ([[User talk:Soul reaper|talk]]) 09:44, 11 June 2013 (EDT) | |||
I agree. If they aren't calling it ''Halo 5'', then we shouldn't be either. The page should be appropriately renamed to ''Halo Xbox One'' as that's the name they are currently using. Could always be a working title, but right now it's the best we have.--{{User:Spartacus/Sig}} 11:15, 11 June 2013 (EDT) | |||

Several 343i employees were tweeting "Halo 5" and "sequel."

It's weird, but I agree that we should follow what the developers seem to indicate is the best possible designation and avoid wiki speculation. It's possible that Microsoft marketing wants to promote the Xbox One so much that they want to abandon mention of previous Halo games. --<b>[[User:Dragonclaws|<font color="#800080">Dragon<font color="#DE397E">c</font>laws</font>]]<sup>([[User talk:Dragonclaws|<font color="#6600D8">talk</font>]])</sup></b> 18:34, 13 June 2013 (EDT) | |||

Should the "planet" and it's "moon" be listed as a first appearance? If it turns out to be Installation 00 - which the "moon" looks like the planetoid in the center - then it certainly isn't the first appearance. I understand that at such a time that information is known the tags will be amended, but should we assume it's a first appearance with little to nothing to go off?[[User:Ocean Soul|Ocean Soul]] ([[User talk:Ocean Soul|talk]]) 13:25, 13 June 2013 (EDT) | |||
