WOW!! Looks amazing!

but when watching the trailer did anyone else think "since when did elites turn into brutes?"

what do you guys think?

[edit] also if this is supposed to be set before Halo 1 then why are the spartans wearing Mk6 armor and not MK5?

Why Halo Wars is way cool, Ensemble has already said Halo Wars will be Xbox 360 exclusive (ie, no Mac/PC version), which means this thread doesn't belong here. You should have posted in the Halo Wars Forum.

What are you talking about, they look like Brutes? Those Elites look like Elites to me.

Not at all. Advance Wars was a Turn-Based Strategy Game (TBS?), while Halo Wars will be an RTS (Real Time Strategy).
HW will be more along the lines of StarCraft, Myth, WarCraft, The Battle for Middle Earth, Command and Conquer, and Age of Empires.

this thread may be moved once a mod decides to wander back into the maw *were so peacefull in here tho, well, most of the time >.>*

[offtopic]why aren't there really any mods that stay in here? I've seen shishka post once within the past month or so, and recon has been really only replying to the halogen thread[/offtopic]

He does have a point...while the Elites do nothing but growl menacingly, they do sound a bit too brutish than elitish.

And as for Boo, we've got several members around here who usually reach a mod or two via PM and can contact them when needed (just go take your pick from this list). That, and we correct each other, making us mostly self-sufficient. I myself have tabs on several mods that I ask for moderating on occasion.

but the shot of the group shows that they all look simmaler, since the close up of the one elite showed us who they are *look at them teeth!*

about the mod thing. Its just that mods don't come around and chat in here *theyre usualy off hearding New Mombasims or chacing after floodings who get loose on other forums* but its just odd how we almost seem to mod ourselves half the time.

I feel your pain... okay, no I don't.
-EDIT- I posted this in the news forum, though I'd bring it here.
Warning, this may mean that this thread stays in the Maw!

What? Play a game? FOR FUN???
This concept of fun confuses and infuriates me!

This looks freaking amazing. The only RTS i've played are Tales of Symphonia/Phantasia. I look forward to how this will turn out. It already looks totally bad ass.
