Just a thought for everyone who is into the books and sories in the Haloverse, is the plot for Halowars going to be canon, as the announcement said that it takes place early in humanity's confrontation with the covenant. Spartan Group Omega.....................maybe explain some of the missing spartans in the books.
...
Hard to answer. Looks like Bungie gave Ensamble all the info they needed in order to build the RTS Timeline... however there are some small story errors ... at least in the trailer: Battle Rifles, the Spartan Armor (Should be Mark 4, but it looks closer to a modified Mark 6). Hopefully it will be cannon, as we need more pre-Halo goodness, but it will most likely take a few "liberties" so that the game is fun.

As for the Graphics... the trailer is Pre-rendered CGI not in-game, so we don't know how well it will really look until we seen some screenshots. But I'm sure it will look fantastic.. for an RTS.

Dude no wonder the bungie guys have been so cranky lately, look at all the -blam!- they're doing!! Are you guys busy enough Jeeeeez!

Halo is turning into Star Wars.....Buy Truth Undies, Grunt backpack that has breathing gear, and Brute cereal.

Now NOBODY can stop bungie from world domination.

Halo's a hell of a drug.

Insane. I can't wait. The video for Halo Wars is beyond great. I can't wait for Halo 2, Halo Wars, and Whatever-Halo-Stuff Jackson is working on.

If you can purchase the Cheif in this RTS then you've won already lol ;) And when he said Halo 2 i think he meant H2PC Vista.

I understand skepticism, but basing graphical opinions on what was essentially a wide network performance data-mining test disguised as a game is silly.

Bungie.net Overlord Achronos on Graphics.

I'm Having Kittens over this. Halo Wars!?! Ohh Yes now we're talking. i saw the really early development shots of Halo: CE when it as a RTS...This Will Be Good.

As For Peter Jackson's work....awooga! he spends all the time in the world on his projects and does not finish them untill they are beyond ready. excelent.

keep the tasty trailers coming. Bungie Have Struck Gold!

awesome, cant wait for HALO 3

Good stuff Bungie..
Best Halo trailer that I have sean and I have sean them all. Even tho its Pre-rendered the folks at Ensemble have set the bar for Halo 3... Lets hope the Bungie team can do better or just as good.
So far Ensemble has put out the Better Halo trailer. How can that be???

This happens with all good games, they start of well and then this happens. Halo is a FPS thats it! Next Bungie will be making an adventure game where you run around as a grunt collecting flowers.

This new battle strategy game is already pushing halo 3 aside, people will no longer be wanting news on H3 but this Halo Wars. [By the way its got a very bad title, "Halo Wars" no imagination was used there]

I don't like RTS's but if it has the halo name and bungie says its good im buying it. I just hope it dosent push back halo 3, if it does im going to be really mad at halo wars.

  • 09.28.2006 10:12 AM PDT

Is it just me or is there a supersized galactical piece of Bungie out there that actully came from the heavens above? The Halo franchise is just getting awesomer and awesomer!!!!

bazil2point0 once youve finished soiling yourself stop and think. Bungie are a lot smarter than you think, they know all they've got to do is make a game, slap HALO in the title and people like yourself will go crazy soil yourself and buy the game. The games title is lame HALO WARS, its a STAR WARS rip off, also there are only two sides in the game, the Humans and the Covanant, BORING.

In the trailer for Halo Wars, it really ticks me off to find at thrailer that Bungie isn't even mentioned why is this?

Well some of us have slightly more respect for Bungie. they are one of only a few companies that really don't care just about the money, they also care about its audience, and we do know that if the game isn't good, then people WON'T buy it after the first lot have. we're not as blind as you may think. the games WILL be awesome!
