Sharky54, I would not buy a 360 for Halo Wars. It simply is not worth it.
This game is an RTS, that works on the console only because it is so simple.
You gather resources by building structures that automatically give you supplies, you don't send out units to collect money.
The worst part about it for me was that you only have a set number of spots to build new buildings, there is not creativity in designing ones base.I think you get like 9 spots to make your base, and then 4 spots to build turrets.
The graphics are great, the controls are good, and if you like the Halo universe then it is worth the story, but to purchase a 360 just for this game is definately not worth it. Leave RTS games to the PC, unless it get mouse and keyboard support on the console.
However, my opinion might not be enough, so try it on a friends Xbox first.
