    It nost a shooting game it is more like a strategy game, and I didnt expect that. If you looking for a shooting game dont pick up this one. But if you like chess then go for it

    This is one of those games I missed by not owning an Xbox 360. However, now that is backwards compatible on the Xbox One, I picked it up and enjoyed it. That said, this game is supposed to be remastered and included in the upcoming sequel.

    I actually bought this as a second copy so my son and I could play it in co-op mode together. Really fun game set in the Halo universe.

    Great RTS experience for a console due to the simplistic controls and always great Halo universe.

    Somewhat limited, but quite fun to play.

    Halo Wars is somewhat limited as you can only build structures on building pads that surround your base - unlike other RTS games I've played in which you can build structures anywhere around your base location so long as the terrain allows you to - & in Halo Wars there are only 7 pads to build on once you've upgraded your base to its highest capacity. Other than the issue of limited building areas I enjoy playing the game. Challenge: For me the game is extremely challenging on Legendary. Storyline: I really enjoy the Storyline. Graphics: I felt this game's graphics were good, compared to my recollection of other RTS games I've played. Fun: Halo Wars is quite fun to play. On the easiest difficulty setting, I found the game to be usually not that difficult. Playing it on Legendary, however, is proving to be a chore for me.

    It was an ok game. Not your typical halo game. It is an RTS (Real Time Strategy) game, and not a shooter like every other Halo game. So don't go expecting a shooter type experience. But if you are looking for a change of pace in your gaming and enjoy the Halo universe, then Halo Wars is for you.
