Title: Halo Wars
Post by: Rakala on April 01, 2009, 02:08:54 PM
So, after playing the demo I think I have a pretty good grasp on how things are going to go. Despite being a console RTS it is quite functional with well rounded, yet slightly frustrating at times, controls. I did enjoy it and it wasn't difficult, however RTS's for consoles are still like two Albanians in a field of sheep.... which I'm not going to continue that metaphor for fear of being banned.

hey, if you've got x-box live, you can feel free to friend's request me, my gamertag is basilisk2150, much like my PS3 online ID

i too enjoyed the demo, though i think i found the most enjoyable part to be the CGI scenes between missions... the detail was incredible.  As for the missions, they seemed to be more like a tutorial, than an actual challenge

Yeah, and unlike most other games there's almost no reason to just not build tank upon tank and charge. Well, there's difficulty cramming them in small places (that's what she said) but they are eventually able to sort it out. Anyways, when my bones heal you may get a friend request from Rakala756 or RandomMerc. I don't have a gold account right now but we could talk or something.

It looks pretty darn decent and seeing as how i have a fondness for these types of games, I would be playing it almost nonstop.

Except my brother doesn't want it, which means i don't get it. Go fig  :cry

I'd love to play even a Demo of it >>

But then i'd just get hooked and want the actual game so maybe it's not the best idea.

My dad just wants it for the cutscenes~ Which, as i have seen, are quite awesometastic
