A sad excuse for an RTS. Monoply Jr. :: Monoply Halo Wars :: Other RTS
I bought this game hoping to have another solid RTS to my collection. I was dissapointed. This game is serverly lacking compared to other RTS games considering it only has 2 factions and each faction has about 10 units. ... Read Full Review

Simply amazing
A work of art. I've played through all of the Halo games multiple times, and none of them are closer to a masterpiece than this one. Halo Wars really went out on a limb with new characters, new story, and new gameplay. A... Read Full Review

Ensemble did the impossible: they made an RTS that doesn't suck with the controller
Back in the mid 1990's when Bungie was owned by Macintosh, they came up with an idea for a new RTS. Well, that RTS eventually turned into the popular game known as Halo (which became a huge success). It was pretty iron... Read Full Review

Another proof why RTS should stay on PC's.
Halo Wars is a RTS in the Halo environment. Your main leader in the battlefield will be Sergeant Forge. He will be your kind of hero during all the game. The story is nothing more than a Halo game. You will fight against... Read Full Review

A great console RTS with a simple gameplay setup for unfamiliar players of the genre.
Halo Wars sounds like a bad spin-off or attempt to make money off one of the big brand names in the industry. Well, that's what it sounds like. But after playing the demo and then later buying the game, I was actually pl... Read Full Review

This game deserves a lot more attention
Personally, this game has become one of my favorite games to play online. The characters are new to the Halo series but are believeable, and all the troops you can build bring back memories for past halo games as well as... Read Full Review

Halo Wars is a different take on the same story. If you're an avid RTS fan then this is a fun worthy buy
In this post-Halo 3 world, it's fallen to studios other than Bungie to keep the Xbox's most revered franchise afloat. Age of Empires maker Ensemble is the first out of the gate with Halo Wars, a PC-style real-time strate... Read Full Review
