    I am a lapsed RTS fan, I found the controls to be intuitive and easy to quickly complete objectives. I am a long time Halo fan, having enjoyed all the games from the launch of the original Xbox. The Halo universe is interesting having read several of the books, this is a nice expansion of the story surrounding the events of Halo 4.

    Could have been great but the mechanics and play-style does hamper the game a bit. Still a solid RTS for XBOX halo fans, it won;t make any top 10 game list but decent fun can be had.

    Halo Wars 2 is very similar to the first in the way it plays. In-game graphics are good but not much of an upgrade. The cutscenes however are really good. There's just not enough of them. Overall it's a fun game especially playing with friends.

    This game is probably not the best pickup for the casual player but for RTS fans, this is a fun game using the Halo property. Purchased at a great price so it perfectly fits the amount of play we're likely to get out of it.

    I have played part of the campaign as well as skirmish against the AI. It's fun if you enjoy strategy games, but it's not like a first person shooter, if that's your preference. For example, I enjoy games like this and Starcraft.

    I haven't gotten too far in this game yet, but it's a really interesting spin on this franchise. If you like game like Command and Conquer but a bit more simplified and in the Halo universe, then you may like this

    I love RTS games in general and had a lot of fun with the first halo wars. Halo wars 2 is a blast with new game modes and better over all game play in my opinion. I have not played much of the campaign yet mostly do to my addiction to the multiplayer. Worth the buy if you like RTS games!

    For a console RTS, there are none better than HALO WARS series. You can quote me on that.
