Halo Wars is pretty cool, I have finished the game on normal, I am hunting for all the skulls now. I will try a couple of playthroughs on higher levels and then try my luck with the covenent side.

I downloaded and played the Halo Wars demo. I like it, I am interested in the entire storyline. I like the gameplay, I wish the camera would zoom in a bit closer. I like the array of weapons, machines available and options for development. Like any RTS game, the graphics are better than okay, but not "awesome".

I think it is very interesting how people respond to simple statements or mistakes. I posted a forum topic with the intention of saying something good about Rock band 2 as it relates to game play and having a full "studio" worth of accessories. I also wanted to mention that even though the Ion drums are great; they have a weakness under the cymbals and can break (required superglue to fix).

The bulk of responses were related to the cost of the Ions, one post made fun of a typo and another defended the topic and even acknowledged the typo.

Really no point to be made other than it is interesting how each response can be all over the map.

Pure is fun, my sons and I had a blast getting upgraded parts and learning how to do better tricks. We are almost ready for the A-Class engines, but have a couple of trick tracks to make it past. I read somewhere that there is an S-Class engine... not sure if it is true.
