i believe he talking about RTS on the 360 in general, not halo wars by itself.

downloading as well, but I don't understand why they did not put this on PC / 360 instead of just the 360 ?shaggymcp

because it has Halo in its name.

Pretty much. I'm just talking about the controls. Imean the 360 controls aren't terrible on BfME on the 360 but they are... Odd. I have more faith for halo wars though, due to 1)the developer and 2)this was developed for the 360 in mind.

Well he should've at least watched the video to see the game mechanics before judging based on other console RTS games. Halo Wars seems to be heading in the right direction in my opinion.

Did you play C&C3? It was awesome...

Halo wars is going to flop horribly. I don't know why they decidied to make an RTS of it, but it's not gonna turn out good. dream431ca

for an RTS designed for the 360....it looks almost exacly like every other RTS out there....

it just lacks depth.

How can you call the Myth series Halo? :lol: :lol:

That was a very mild RTS. I've played them all. Halo Wars is gonna be similar to command and conquer and Age of empires, which is WAY different then the Myth games. I bet you, most of you have never played the Myth games have you? :|

"

On July 21, 1999, during the Macworld Conference & Expo, Steve Jobs announced that Halo would be released for Mac OS and Windows simultaneously.[52] Before this public announcement, game industry journalists under a non-disclosure agreement had previewed the game in a private showing during E31999,[53] and were reportedly amazed.[52][53] Bungie Studios later stated an even earlier development build of the game centered on real-time strategy and was "basically Myth in a sci-fi universe."[54]"

Well depends on what score you consider a "flop". I predict AA from it, so it needs to get A to flop in my books. With the makers of Age of Empires, and Bungie working at their sides, how can it possibly flop? And their main goal is to make the controls work and be fluid.

Ummm, I have played the Myth series, Age of Empire series, and Command and Conquer series... Myth was cool for what it was, but I enjoyed the Age of Empire series the most.

What are you talking about? Halo started out as an RTS on the Mac in 1997, Myth and Halo have no connection.

Company of Heroes ruined all future C&C type games for me :( No cover system, no destructible areas... Only thing going for this preview was it was Halo. I didn't see anything mindblowing. Hopefully Ensemble Studios will surprise me. Mortok

I have to agree there.....the only RTS I have really loved since then is World In Conflict (Beta)...and that takes a lot of pointers from COH....but has a far better multiplayer then COH ever did.

I will like Starcraft 2 though....because of its amazingly good balance, and very distinct units and races.

I thought they pulled off RTS on the 360 very well. The real challenge will be for games like Starcraft and Total war.

demo just came out.

play the multiplayer though (single player is alright but not as good)

it takes some time to get used to though (no base building, recourse gathering)

its also class based....

it basiclly plays somewhat like BF2 would as an RTS....though the battles are much larger (thanks to 16 players online, and join in progress)

those arent coming to consoles....

I like that it looks like Bungie made it based on how true to the style of Halo it is. But I can't get excited about an RTS unless it's made by Blizzard.

Relic are godly. Dawn of War is one of the best RTS games ever.

I liked Comapany of heroes better (prefer a more realistic setting)

I just wish they would improve their online features...

I cant wait till Opposing fronts though.

It was a really cool game but the controls for the 360 completely ruined it for me. RTS should have mouse and keyboard support on consoles or just not be on them at all.
