halo wars looks like a pretty good game. i am not to crazy about rts games though i might like this one
I think it looks awesome, plus it being made by Ensemble studios who made my favorite RTS Age of Empires 3.
The game itself looks alright, but when it comes down to it i would rather be on the front lines of the battle rather than some overhead commander view. I enjoy RTS type games but the only ones I have ever really gotten into were star craft and the C&C series. I would like for someone to trying and pull off a natural selection or C&C renegades type game set in the halo universe. That would be amazing.
It's definately going to be one of the only 360 games I get this year (If they manage to get it out in 2008) I've never played a console RTS before, and I figure this on will probably be the perfect one to try out. Hopefully it'll be worth it.
not a big fan of RTS games. I probably won't get this game just because I like being in the action and not watching it.
Could be fun... but it takes away the up-close-and-personal aspect, IMO... I'll definatley rent it, then I might buy it.
depends, I havnt come across how u get credits/money but v problem with command and conquer is that rushin to get resource quickly is the key to victory as your enemy has no way to defend themselves- if it keeps Halo feel and makes both covenant/human sides even with thier own unique styles - im grand...
You will be able to call MAC strikes from the Spirit of Fire, that's almost worth buying the game for that alone.
I think it seems like a decent game. I enjoyed play StarCraft many years ago, and I loved the way it was set up. Now if you combine the idea of StarCraft with Halo, then you have one killer game. If you can play through on the Covenant and control Scarabs, I would buy the game for the sole purpose of just that!
it will be a soley stratigy game and u dont get to shoot urself. the computer does it and sucks at it. i think well have to adjust to stratigie and be successful at it. lets be friends :squirrel_grouphug:
The Basic idea is to make a BIG F'IN ARMY to blow the covies away. But it's a lot more that, and that's why I like it.
Im not so sure. RTS games have had a pretty bad reputation on consoles, just because consoles are not well suited for it. Plus, Depending on when it and Endwar come out (im not sure of the release dates for either), HW had better be d@#n revolutionary to compete with endwar.
Im not too sure what to think about it tbh :S RTS's are good but for halo i definately prefer being right in the thick of it. What would have been a cool idea might be to have one guy as the tactician commander person but have the ability to throw your mate into the battle as the "hero" of whichever army your using eg master chief,arbiter,tartarus,johnson etc If it turns out to be the same type of thing as say tiberian sun but with halo characters subbed in i wont be all that iimpressed. I personally like RTS's but frankly all the futuristic ones are exactly the same of else suck and wither of those would be a blow to whole halo franchise Ill still be buying it tho lol
