Do you guys think they ruined halo with halo wars? I think....yes, because it is a strategy game!! Strategy games are fun and all, but Halo wars could have been alot better if it was first person shooter like the other halos, they could have added alot more action, i was really upset when i played the demo of halo wars and found out it was strategy game, it really sucked. So...what do you guys think of the new halo?

It was meant to be a full fledged stategy game from the start. Thats why Ensemble Studios (RIP) developed it. I wasnt meant to be a sequel or in the line with the Halo trilogy. Just a game based in the Halo Universe that deepens the story a little bit, kinda what Halo ODST will do, but it will be a fps.

It was supposed to be a RTS from the beginning.

Let me guess, you didn't do any research on the game because you saw the word Halo on the title and instantly thought it would be a shooter? Right?

Halo is still great. Halo 3 is one f the most popular games on Live and Halo Wars is a terrific game. It has became my favorite RTS.

Halo Wars was not meant to be a prequel or sequel to the FPS Halo franchise, it's just a spin-off of Halo like nate_c-12 said to deepen the story a bit just like Halo 3: ODST is going to do.

Personally, I liked Halo Wars....even though it wasnt a shooter it provided hours of quality time.

Let me guess, you're an idiot who can't read because you saw the first few words and instantly thought he was a "12 year who bought halo wars because it's halo." Right?

Learn how to read, he said he played the demo.

To the OP, no. Halo Wars is great, just wish some of the missions weren't so ridiculous on Legendary.

Lol, one spin off leads to a destroyed series? If Halo's ruined from one spin off then what would you consider Mario? I find it ironic though. The same people who complained that Halo 3 wasn't different enough complain about Halo Wars not being the same. Theres just no pleasing people.

So...what do you guys think of the new halo?papa_niz

OP, I want to be very honest with you, because of this, I am going to point out exactly were in your post you failed to make me think you had a sturdy opinion about this.

'I think...yes, because it is a strategy game!!' - No duh, guess what, it came from Ensemble. They were good at Strategy games.

I can respect a person disliking a Genre but you just seem more blind then opinionated. A new studio takes it in a new direcction and you hate it for no other reason then the change. If you want a first person shooter you really should have been smart enough to read up on the game online and just stick with halo. This game has been marketed as a strategy game from the start and you should have known months in advanced just based off the information on THIS site alone.

Also, I thought Halo Wars was decent. Definitely not as great as other RTS games, surely not as Challenging, but nonetheless a working game with interesting gameplay for the first few goes at least.

My real opinion OP is that if anything here is bad it is your current point of view on games. You need a larger list of games you will play. It really is more fun when you play more then just shooters all the time. (From your post I deduced this was the case, give or take a WRPG or two)

HAHA! SO! RobNBankz! Let me guess, You're anidjit who can't be bothered to read properly and instantly thought that Spino was taking a shot at a little kid, making you feel the need to play a game of 'LAWL INTERNET TOUGH GUY!'

Halo Wars was intentionally made to be an RTS game to provide a little bit of variety with Halo games . . . I personally thought it was a good choice; however, I wouldn't of minded having a FPS called "Halo: the beginning" with all the spartans.
