Go check it out now, Halo Wars has finally made it onto the list of demos available from the x-box 360 dashboard. This should be good. How can anything that combines the world of Halo along with what is promised to be the first ever “working RTS control system” for the x-box go wrong? I only hope that the controls are all that.
I’m a big RTS fan and have tried with every release to enjoy the genre on the x-box but to date every single game has failed to get to within even 10% of the enjoyment you get from playing RTS on a PC. I’ve bought them all from Alien versus Predator Extinction all the way to Lord of The Rings – Battle For Middle Earth 2. Each has been nothing but disappointing in terms of game play. The people who brought us Age of Empires for the PC (Ensemble Studios) are promising something different this time, an RTS built from the ground up to suite the x-box controller. I guess if Bungie trust them with their baby then so should we? I literally can’t wait to get stuck into Halo Wars, even if it is just the demo.
