    Halo Wars

    So yeah,

    The demo came out today: IF YOU DON'T HAVE IT DOWNLOAD IT NOW

    Now that that's out of the way, I can say, from first-hand experience, that this game is going to be one of my favorites for a long time.

    Firstly: I love RTS's. Always have, always will, grew up on Starcraft and never looked back.

    Secondly: I love Halo. Fun, cool story, and very interesting, futuristic scenery, units, and enemies.

    Thirdly: It's a mix of both, how much better can it be?

    You might be thinking that, "An RTS can't function properly on a console."
    Well, it can, and Ensemble (now out of business ) did it very well.

    The controls function smoothly, the cursor, the menus, and the camera all handle great.

    The "circle" menu that you see when you select a building is very cool, you hold the left stick in the direction of the unit/upgrade you want to select.

    Anyways, I'm rambling, if you have the demo, tell me what you think.

    If you don't have it, go get it, yeah.

    Opinions?

              Yeah, I'm going to be skipping this. If it was on the pc, I might consider torrenting it or something, but it's not going to be a game I'll actually pay for.
              Funny stuff goes in this area right?

                Btw this looks like a cheap way to get Halofags to buy a new Halo game...I bet you it's going to be nothing compared to SCII...especially if this is on the XBox.

                  Anything that has to do with Halo is pretty cool.

                  Btw I checked it out, and it plays pretty well. You should try it.
