Forums - Microsoft Discussion - 360 Fans, are you excited about Halo Wars/Halo Chronicles?

first off halo wars. i see this game selling 1.5 million, but not to the pint of halo 3. im sure it will be a good game, but things need to be improved, like how the hell do you get resources? i.e minerals from starcraft. i wouldnt fancy playing this game on a controller, so if it does come to PC ill prolyl pick it up.

the reason why i dont think this game will sell  well is because it takes place before teh first halo. i really think halo fans would want to see a game that is a sequel to halo 3 and continues the story. but if they are true halo fans they will probably end up buying the game anyways. 

 halo: chornicles. to tell you the truth, this game looks very very gay. well technically its not a full video game, more like an episodic video game. some parts will be semi playabale though. if i were a 360 owner, i wouldnt even bother with this game.

 

then again, these two games might just sell good just because they have the word "Halo" in them.

 

so...

 

what do you think about halo wars and will you be getting it?

same question for halo chronicles.

i cant see it selling too well, definitley between 1-2 mil tho.



If it's anything like AOE I might buy it when I pick up a 360.




Halo Chronicles? Care to elaborate? As far as I know, Peter Jackson hasn't said anything about his Halo project.



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

I'm not excited at all. The Halo mythos is pretty bland to me. The FPS's were pretty fun, but I don't see myself buying the spinoffs. One man's trash is another man's treasure. I'm sure some gamers are frothing for it.

Not really... Halo anything right now has a sour taste in my mouth after both Halo 2 and 3 burnt me by being poor games.

My pokemon brings all the nerds to the yard. And they're like, "You wanna trade cards?" Damn right, I wanna trade cards. I'll trade this, but not my charizard.

I'm excited about Halo Wars. I was a big fan the Age of Empires series. Ensemble studios combined with the Halo universe is a pretty good recipie in my book. My only apprehension is whether it will translate well to the Xbox controller.



No. Not at all.

I am not excited at all for Halo wars. this smiley will illustrate my excitement :|

there you have it... :| thats my excitement



Well I'm not exactly fond of using a controller to play an RTS, but i was a huge AOE fan and I'm hoping Ensemble Studios can do something similar with halo.
