I am TOTALLY on the fence ... I'm not even a Halo fan, in fact I hate Halo. But Halo Wars looks like it has potential.

So I tried it out, I finished the demo twice. This game has REALLY good graphics, and the game play engine is smooth. It is a very good real time strategy game BUT is has not improved on the genre at all, it's another re-run. I was a Command and Conquer fan and an Age of Empires JUNKIE, but they all got old because they just became the same game over and over. Halo Wars is NO exception. If you are new to the RTS games then this is a very good game and you'll probably enjoy it, but if you're like me and have played them all, then this is just another clone and offers absolutely nothing fresh or ground breaking.

I played it, hated it and it made me feel like the fat fuq on South Park's Make Love not Warcraft episode, except I was using a 360 controller instead of a mouse a keyboard and some cup ramen on my desk.

I actually punched myself for having DL'd and playing this!

Sadly for wally that IS how I picture him.  Only replace the mouse for an ashtray and a pack of Marlboro Reds and some Natural Ice or Hamm's beer.  Just thinking he has this game whipped until all his idiot friends got sick of his drama and bailed on him.  So now he stalks SAAM and me.  I get 3 or 4 messages a day from him.  He even has 2 GHEYmertags with BeeRad in them.  Tell me that is not an unnatural man-crush.

I had a blast playing the demo, I played starcraft back in the day, so this is a way beefed up version of that to me.
