Or, just like make a good game. You can work on a game until it's good and then release it. Come up with some fun ideas, hire some good writers and graphic designers, spend some time making the controls and UI intuitive and responsive, and then balance gameplay through testing.

Oh, and get the music right. Halo: CE was like 90% about the music. When you hop in the back of the jeep, and the music is like "dun duh duh DUUN da dun duh duh DUUUN" and you start mowing down Grunts, or when you meet the Flood for the first time, those moments made Halo an experience worth sharing.
