Game Details below:
“Halo Wars is a strategy game based on the legendary Halo universe. Command armies of UNSC units, both familiar and new, in their initial encounter against the Covenant, an alien coalition threatening to obliterate mankind. Experience an early period of the storied Halo universe, in a time leading up to the first Halo game.
With the guidance of Serina, a spirited A.I. persona, direct legions of UNSC soldiers, Warthogs and Scorpions against Covenant Grunts, Elites, Ghosts and Scarabs, each group having its own strengths and uses in battle. Strategic-minded players who react well under pressure will emerge victorious. “
The retail version arrives in-stores on the 26th February (Australian Release).

It would be an awesome MMORPG with so many different classes to choose from and planets to explore
Gamertag: ii Fr0zen Li
Combat Racing! What Full Auto couldn’t achieve, a warthog, mongoose and ghost could dominate! And that’s before the Brute Chopper gets involved…
Oh yeah, my Xbox Live gamertag: AXIS of Reality
Sports. Play as Master Chief as he battles it out with a variety of covenant warriors in an epic table tennis tournament.
(Gamertag is ThatTangent).
Survival/horror. Gamers will be an ODST soon, so a Flood purge excursion (or Covenant monstrosity hunt) would be awesome!! Vulnerable troopers FTW!!
Halo could translate well into an RPG, along the lines of Fallout or Mass Effect. Space-fairing and combat oriented it could expand the Halo universe.
