Pros: Great graphics... especially in comparison to the other halo games. Interesting campaign Cons: Not really a game type that was meant for an xbox controller. from Newegg.com I can't say anything more than this game rocks. If you have played RTS Games on PC (Command and Conquer, Red Alert) you would love this game because it is another RTS. However, add Halo to the mix and you got a killer game. Definately deserves 10 out of 5 stars from Amazon.com If you like strategy games and the Halo franchise then you will love this game. Easy to use control commands, a story line that pulls you in, and probably the best graphics (for the movies that happen between actual levels) that I've seen on any of the Halo games. from Amazon.com Pros: Outstanding cinematic cutscenes that surpass those found in the Halo Trilogy. Decent price for the only Halo RTS. from Newegg.com Tried to like this game. Just can't do it. This is pure marketing genius: suckering people like me, who really enjoyed the Halo series, into paying [...] bucks for a load of baloney. $%!* you, Bungie. from Amazon.com Gaming background - I'm a big fan of Halo and Starcraft, so this seemed like a perfect match. Unfortunately I haven't gotten online with it yet, so I can't review that aspect of the game. from Amazon.com When buying this game, you have to come into knowing that it is not a pc RTS, and that it was made specifical for the xbox. With that being said, for a console RTS this game was just great. from Amazon.com The campaign is entertaining enough, but not terribly noteworthy. You can beat it beginning to end without learning all the special commands. You will still unlock some cool timeline facts from events in the halo universe, and drool over some spartan cg scenes, but ultimately it left me wondering why they created certain scenarios. Not that it didn't make sense, but more for the fact that some tasks were just a little weird without making you feel like you just saved the day. from Amazon.com Noramally I wouldn't be playing a RTS game, but I loved Halo 1, 2, and 3, so I thought I'd give it a try. At first I tried the demo at Gamestop. from Amazon.com That means there's a lot of action occurring simultaneously on your screen with many characters, vehicles, and explosions. All hell breaks loose, especially on some of the missions. If you love the Halo universe, you'll love this game. It's a great & different way to experience it than in an FPS. from Amazon.com
