After playing it is game that borrows a lot from Starcraft in the balance, speed and upgrades. This is a good thing of course if not a great thing. My only quibble is lack of customizable grouping and 1v1 Live.. This game could easily work with 6 or 8 people going at it. Other than that it is a very easy and enjoyable RTS on a console.

Nice review Grathius. It seems like Ensemble have hit the nail on the head and have made a title worthy of carrying the ‘Halo’ name, will look to grab it a couple of months down the track.

Ensemble stripped away all the complexity of a computer RTS and have built a game that perfectly fits a console. Minimal building, resource and military management . Microsoft is literally shoving this game in your face, and I guess this is too help it reach the gaming charts similarly to wii sports and I hope it pays off.

This sounds like a really amazing game but it is sad to notice that the game’s sequels will not gain the amount of dedication it will receive compared to the current one.

BOT Sactivator, did you ever stop to think a game may genuinely be excellant even if it’s exclusive to a different console than you choice? We’re unbiased here despite the focus of the site being the 360 – our game of the year last year was Metal Gears Solid 4 (9.9/10).

I’m personally really looking forward to Halo Wars and Killzone 2!
