Designed exclusively for the X360 by Ensemble Studios, known for the Age of Empires series, Halo Wars is a strategy game based on the Halo universe. Players will command armies of familiar and new UNSC units in its initial encounters against the Covenant, an alien coalition threatening to obliterate mankind.
Halo Wars is still widely considered one of the best and most accessible RTS games around, and that formula could work with other Microsoft IPs.
I think Crackdown would fit in a more turn-based tactics system via Xcom then a RTS type game play. Being able to customize multiple agents, deploying that group in an crime infested urban zone, going against other super powered enemy and fodder type thugs. The potential for that is huge if they won't do another successful, ground breaking, GOTY open world outing like Crackdown 3....
NoobFeed Editor Joshua Burt writes - There are many games in the famous Halo Franchise that are stellar titles and need to be revered. And some that do not. These games stand out from the crowd and deluge of colossal Halo titles. Games that made Halo great. We do need to iron out what qualifies the game for this list. They have to be in the Halo franchise… Obviously.
Halo 3 at the top is correct the only thing id change is swap infinite and halo ce around.
Since debuting on the original Xbox, the amount of games released means it's no easy task to rank the best and worst Halo games.
I feel like I see these articles often. Either way, just going by main titles as a whole package not just on MP I’d say;
Best 2,3,1,4,5 worst.
Story only;
Best 1,2,3,4,5 worst.
MP only
Best 2,3,5,1,4 worst.
I want Halo Wars to be bigger then any regular RTS game. I want to see ships built on planets or in space and leave the earth and head towards other planets and fight in space or wipe out entire planets, by building huge carriers, and fleets of ships.
The halo universe is huge so lets use it!
this game is going to be pwnage if they make it right XD...screw Halo FPS..it's all about HALO RTS..THE NEW STARCRAFT lol ^_^...i'll definately be upgrading my computer for this
Is this game only for 360? Why would anyone want to play a RTS on a console? Unless the controls are somehow made intuitive. I'll stick with my pc for RTS
This probably the best looking RTS on the 360 yet. Sure LOTR II and C&C 3 look good but Halo Wars looks amazing by far. The lighting and the textures have that sort of splendor that comes from very powerful gaming PCs.
Command and Conquer is SUPERB on the 360....And they are making this game specifically for the 360....It will be spectacular guarenteed. 2008 is looking to be fantastic for the 360....but its hard to look that far ahead with all the AAA games releasing this year. WOW...Kudos Microsoft. Keep pushing the industry.
