Comments such as Small unit counts and map limit the scale of battles it feels simplistic and short alongside other games in the genre. there's not enough depth to win over hardcore strategy buffs. The controls function adequately, but you're quite limited as to what you can actually do with them you can't assign units to custom groups. (wasn't this a feature in Warcraft I?) The camera can also be frustrating One of the best things about Halo Wars is controlling the iconic units from the series. the enemy--at least on the default difficulty setting--isn't too smart. Didn't read 2nd page of the review. This is not me wanting Halo Wars to be bad out of fanboyism. It quite simply is not a very good RTS, I'm sorry. @ JaggedSac - 5 in 8 years is milking a franchise, certainly more than Ninty milks anything. 5 games in 8 years for Halo 7 games in 22 years for Zelda 7 in approx 22 years for Mario The only Ninty franchise that can compete with Halo in terms of exploitation is the Wii series I suppose |
You do know that most of those comments could be suited to your favourite game?
Simplistic, not enough depth, limited.. :D
And wtf, a ninty-fan calling halo a milked franchise. You can't be serious.
