Never was a PC gamer, nor was I fond of Windows phones. I'm glad to see this on my Xbox 360. I'm a bit introverted, and appreciate a story-driven games - that said, I'm looking forward to its "Immersive storyline"

I am a PC gamer, do have a Windows Phone and I will get this on the Xbox 360. :)

The Irony of it all is... It's worked out cheaper for me to buy it on Windows Phone and the Xbox 360 than just buying the Xbox 360 version.

The story is pretty meh. The gameplay is good though.

I'm a Halo fanboy.

Of all the map packs and core games and side projects and books and my plushy grunt and going to HaloFest and all the thousands of dollars and hours I've spent on the franchise....

Spartan Assault was by far the worst.



Can't we all just get along and play our games in peace?

I hear this game is terrible.

They should have kept this game on Windows Phone and not bother porting it to consoles.

Because it is.  I wouldnt recommend it to anybody.  If it was $5 then yeah but i think it is $10 on X360.  $15 on XBO.  

Multiplayer is decent, too short.
singleplayer has fun gameplay, horrible story
