Badassbab said: I enjoyed the demo. Graphics are solid but it's more 25fps than 30. It's definately designed for console play as it's pretty quick to get everything up and running. My only concern is that it might lack depth compared to PC designed RTS but hey I only played the demo. I'm definately buying it. I like tech trees and I like Halo games

I think it was designed like that to draw more non-RTS types to buy the game. I have never gotten into RTS games. However, this one is simple enough to remember controllers and always use Left bumper to regroup my forces.

That said - it's a simplified RTS and I like it just that way. This game will bring a lot more gamers to the table than a top-loaded RTS game would.

Plus, having the name 'Halo' tacked on works well too.

WOW//I just finished playing this demo and I must say this game will certainly be a must-own once it releases. I have bought every Halo game to this date//and I will get this one.

I'm not to much into the RTS genre because it is flatout boring and not that entertaining for my tastes//but after playing the demo I must reconsider.

First thing first//the graphics are freaking top notch//not only are the CG cutscenes beautiful but so are the in-game graphics. Not one time was I confused of what units were mine in such. I like the whole user interface. It's user-friendly for newcomers like me//I also like the whole concept of the Halo story//this story alone is what makes me want to play it//demo was freaking short, only was 3 missons and it was over//oh well, I wanted to keep playing thats how addicting this game is//my stratgey was to make as many soldiers and warhogs and possible//and then I made some flamethrower units and blew right through the game.

Even though I played it on easy since this is my first true RTS. I certainly enjoyed it//and I like the opening main menu//its so Halo-rific!!! haha

Halo Wars Demo alone gets 5 out of 5 for me!!
