[360] Halo Wars (RTS)
I looked but didn't see another topic for this, so I figured I would create it. It is NOT Halo 3, nor any actual HALO game by Bungie.

This is an RTS based on the Halo universe.

I don't want to talk about it too much yet until you guys see the trailer for it. I wish not to spoil the surprise.

It's pretty naive to think that the Halo franchise would end with Halo 3.

Damn. I'd better play some Starcraft and try to get myself liking RPS games, because that looks pretty cool.

Spoiler:
OMG SPARTAN ARMY. But isn't Master Chief supposed to be one of a very small number of Spartans?

Well, yes and no. Halo Wars takes place earlier in the Halo universe, in a time where Spartans were more numerous.

Pre Halo, no?

Still, just a 360 exclusive? I honestly didn't expect that one.

I believe it's coming out for PC to compete with the Battlefield series.

Why would they release an RTS game to compete with an FPS series?

They'll release it on the PC for the extra sales and because the conversion won't take them five minutes. Should be a good game too, I'm looking forward to it.

Regardless of what genre they/you call it, I've watched 20 minutes of Quake Wars in action. It's foundation is exactly like Battlefield (which I've also played, before you ask).

Er, but we're talking about Halo Wars, not Quake Wars. If you're not going to bother reading through a thread before you reply to it, at least read the bloody title.

Now, it cant be that bad, Halo was planned to be a RTS game on the mac at first. So the potential is there.

But wait.. even if it was pre-halo.. There weren't that many Spartans to begin w/...

I think it still a good idea for a game and I can't wait to get my hands on it.

Yes, they might buy it just because it is called Halo, but how is this bad? The name doesn't keep the game from being solid or anything, does it?
I'm pretty sure that developers know what they're doing. After all, they've created some fairly solid RTS on PC...

Sadly, you have a point. Because it has "Halo" in its name, the fans will buy it without a doubt, but the others won't, for the same reason.

I mean there could be plenty RTSs to come out that time could be better and ppl would only pick up Halo Wars.

I do not believe that this will sell just because it had Halo in the name.

When i was searching about this game i found out it was based on before the halo FPS series started so i believe that will be the main seller for the fans of Halo.

Either way i will be picking this game up on release.
