Forums - Microsoft - Halo Wars is looking good

Dolla Dolla on 27 August 2007

It's a standard RTS with a Halo skin, much in the vein of C&C. So, if you like C&C3 and enjoy Halo, this mash up is for you.



I must say, it is attractive.

Man Herzog Zwei rocked. I remember my cousin coming over to my grandmothers with his sega genesis and playing it and it just blew me away. That was the game that really did bring me into RTS.

Halo Wars looks pretty good. I like the halo series quite a bit and I'm sure that I will like this one as well.

Wow....



                 With regard to Call of Duty 4 having an ultra short single player campaign, I guess it may well have been due to the size limitations of DVD on the XBox 360, one of various limitations multi-platform game designers will have to take into consideration-Mike B

Game trailers-Halo 3 only dissapointed the people who wanted to be dissapointed.

Bet with Harvey Birdman that Lost Odyssey will sell more then Blue dragon did.

I laugh at people who say the xbox 360's 2008 lineup is crap. Its going to be quite good. If I have a 360 by the time Halo Wars comes out, I will probably get it.

Ensemble Studio is responsible for this game! Not Bungie, I think it's a wise choice considering Ensemble Studio's has all the experience with strategy games. And it's looks awesome! I'm not much of a Halo fan but this is a Halo game I look forward too.

 Huh. That's too bad. See Bungie has some incredible experience with the genre too. Myth 1&2 are two of the greatest games ever made (in my delusional opinion). They completely reinvented the genre by making things Real Time Tactics. None of this mining Ore and building Units crap. Everything was about tactics. how you organized your units and engaged the terrain. Thats why I was so pumped for Halo Wars. Knowing it's not Bungie makes me a little sad. It'll still be awesome of course, just not "Stof's Awesome"



I'm a mod, come to me if there's mod'n to do.

Serves me right for challenging his sales predictions!

Bet with dsisister44: Red Steel 2 will sell 1 million within it's first 365 days of sales.
