hmm... i dont know. this looks good and all, but i think it might be a little bit played out. this would have been good around a year ago, but with all the hype around h3 and the movie... well, this seems like its a bit overbearing. im going to buy it none the less, but still...

I thought the first encounter with the covenant though only 1 ship made it back, barely at that. So is this game going to wipe you out no matter what?

this will be an amazing game by far. built form the ground up on the 360. but the one thing that i did notice is that the merines are holding Battle Rifles, BR's were prototype weapons that the remaining spartains on reach found b4 reunting with MC in the book First Stike in 2552. if this game takes place b4 Halo 1 during the first attacks in 2525 then Bungie has forgotten something huge in their Halo Story Bible

I'm more excited about this than Halo 3. Now if we could get a little more info on H3, I might change my mind, but the Halo Wars Trailer just completely blew me away. Real time or not, I'm breathless.

sweeet.

I know this isn't the place to debate, but anyone else think those Elites were wack in the Trailer? Honestly. The neck and head area seemed a little off. By a little, I meant a LOT


Well remember, it's supposed to take place before Halo 1, so the Elites could have upgraded their armour over the years, meaning that the Elite armour in the trailer is inferior, older, bulkier technology, explaining the different look.

By the way, Awesome X06 Updates! can't wait for these new projects! We now have 3 Halo games to look forward to, as well as a movie, a set of comic books next summer, 3 more novels... this just gets better and better!

This is one PC gamer who won't be getting a 360 ever, even if they release Halo Wars for FREE. RTS belongs on the PC, and quite frankly seeing Halo Wars being for the 360 is insulting, no RTS on a console has ever done as well, or been as good as, it's PC counterpart, or any PC RTS. This is not the same sinario as video game movies always being bad, thats due to idiots being given the rights to make them, this has to do with the vast limitations of a console for RTS gaming, so I see only one possibility that will see Halo Wars be a good RTS on a console: the removal of all the things that you must have a keyboard to do. That leaves perhaps the core of what an RTS is, but takes the genre back a decade in terms of additional features and controls that have been added over the years. I see vast menu options to make up for hotkeys, slower gameplay, and the death of the finer points of micromanagement that makes the latest RTS games shine.
My sentiments exactly. Not to mention that because it is also going to be exclusively for a console, there will likely be no map editor for it, which in my opinion is an integral element of all good RTS games. Even if it does somehow manage to include a map editor, it will have a great lack of sophistication compared to the PC because downloading custom sounds, files, and mods for your maps will prove to be much more difficult. On top of that, trying to create 3D levels with a controller would be painstakingly annoying. Without a decent level editor I will become very bored with this game fairly quickly.

Halo takes no skill? Get real. And get over yourself.
