In my personal opinion Ghosts is not going to die for at least a few more years but it wont be too long from now. The new games Destiny, Halo MC collection, Advanced Warfare will definitely bring a lot of players away from Ghosts but there will always be time to go back to play it so it will not completely die for a while yet. Me personally once the MC collection comes out every single game on the planet will be dead for a few months if not longer due to the fact that I will be playing it non stop in my free time. I will also be getting Destiny and Advanced warfare. I will not however be getting the new AC just cause I am getting bored with them. I am and have always been a Halo fanatic so whenever a new halo comes I dedicate my all my sparetime to it.
