Well there's your problem! A Mother buying her Child a Teen Rated Game! A Bit off-topic yes, but yeah. Bugs me none-the-less.

As for buying Halo Wars thinking it's a first person shooter. It's really up for the consumer to know what product they are buying. Honestly, is it so hard to find out things? Last I checked, there was something called the "Eee-Ter-Net" or something like that which allows users to get a tonne of infomation. Heck, if they don't have a connection? Look up a flyer, Call your local Gamestore, Ask a friend, do some research!

It's not that hard, even by looking at ONE screenshot. One can conclude that Halo Wars it NOT a RTS. There is no excuse for being that lazy.

 

There's an even easier way to tell what it is if you somehow don't have access to the internet: THE BACK OF THE BOX! Regardless of what the cover looks like to draw you in, the back of the box usually provides SOME details and screenshots of what you should expect from the game.
