I think its a pretty good game despite the bad reviews i keep seeing...

User Rating: 8 | Halo Wars X360
I'm not gonna say this game is the best rts of all time but I've actually had a fun time playing this game. Its a lot more fun when you have a few friends playing on xbl but i had fun just playing the AI too when i first got it. The graphics are really good for this game...to be honest it was a shock to me cause i wasn't expecting too much out of that aspect of the game. The campaign was good but it was kinda short for my taste. I also would have liked to have saw a covenant campaign as well but who knows...maybe with the miracle of xbl marketplace that could still happen. The online play is a major selling point for the game in my opinion and its online its really fun. Its always got the excitement of "what are they gonna do?" and "uh oh..they still haven't sent an attack yet, i think I'm gonna die" X_X . One of a few major online things i didn't like was the few maps they had for 3v3, another thing was the craziness of the odst drops in the game. It gets a little overboard at how early you can get those then suddenly drop 10 out of nowhere on your opponent. I realize that the flaws of the game are making ppl say "oh this game is boring and sucks", but if you like halo and/or like strategy games id say give it at least a rental if nothing else.
