It's made by Ensemble (Age of Empires) so it's pretty good. I mean I dont like halo or RTS games but Im considering buying this one. In the demo there are 4 or 5 extremely high quality cutscenes that are quite breathtaking. Games have come a long way

yeh dood its 20 years before the first halo took place. Its a real time strategy game, not a first person shooter like the others are.

It's a good game being killed by console release only, the micro is way to simple, I tend to wipe out enemys in scirmish in 5-10 minutes as Marine, and 7-15 as Convent. Was hoping for multiplayer in the demo, but none =\.

I say 6/10, great game, but it's solely 360, and the skill level is little to none, with not a lot of learning curve or strategy.

Mouse AND keyboard. The real thing that separates and RTS on a console from an RTS on a computer.

yeah. i'm not sure why they even bother trying to make these for consoles anymore. it's been tried so many times, and they always say "this time we've got the controls down just right! it's gonna be great!" then the game ends up being oversimplified and boring. really, it's been happening since the original playstation, you'd think companies would learn.

In this case it doesn't matter.
Halo games will sell.

True.
Its a whole nother storyline, taking place shortly after the covenant and humans first made contact.
Overall the halo series is epic, I love the books and the games campaign.
The multiplayer would be cool if there wasnt so many kids
