    I have had the game for a couple of weeks and I am having fun. There are plenty of different types of games to play and the campaign is pretty good too. If you liked the first Halo wars you will like this game.

    If you liked the first halo wars, you will like halo wars 2. Same style as Starcraft, but utilizing the halo franchise. Over all the controls are easy to learn and the leader skills are a nice addition.

    If you like RTS this is fun. There are not much choices on the console. They just added some more levels this week. I do like the game and enjoy the multiplayer. The different teams all have weakness.

    I have always been a halo fan this is not as good as the original halo wars but the graphics are far advanced the gameplay is easier too. I would recommend this to any halo fan of fans of rts games.

    Purchased this game after playing the original. I enjoyed the improvements from the first and ease of gameplay. This isn’t one of those games that take a month to figure out. If you liked the original you should consider purchasing this game.

    Good game for fans of the Halo series. Playing strategy games with a controller is still a task, but this game gets a pass as it has all the halo-rific cutscenes and units we all love.

    For fans of the RTS genre. This game is better than average and perhaps even more appealing to a HALO fan. Recommended for RTS and HALO fans alike.

    If you are a fan of the first game, then you will like this one. It may take some getting used to but it is still fun. Campaign is kind of short but some missions are hard so it balances out.

    I bought this for my son for a just because gift. I gave it to him and he turned it on and said it's awesome. The graphics are excellent, it fits very well into the Halo story and game play is exactly what you'd expect for a Halo game.

    This game might not be for everyone as it is a little slow but I do really like the challenge and making units in general is fun too. it also offers some good lore for any halo fan.

    It's a good game for beginners who are new to the real time strategy genre. Bonus if you like Halo, although I don't believe the story in this game is considered canon.
