  • Superb selection of UNSC and Covenant forces, Easy to play once you grasp the controls, Engaging storyline and cutscenes, Good mission variety through campaign mode
  • Covenant not playable in campaign mode, Flood not playable at all, Small unit counts and map limit the scale of battles, Very few multiplayer options
  • Halo Wars is a fun strategy outing for fans of the universe, but it feels simplistic and short alongside other games in the genre. ...

  • Abstract:  James Wright8.1Microsoft’s Halo series is easily one of the world’s most popular first person shooters that originally began on the XBox and finally concluded on the XBox 360 with not only a spectacular gaming experience but a storyline to match. Stra...

  • Abstract:  NameBefore I jot down my impressions from Halo Wars, let me get this caveat out of the way; I'm a huge fan of PC gaming, and I strongly believe that both shooters and real time strategy games belong on the PC platform. At least that's what I thought until...

  • Abstract:  Ensemble Studios, the legendary studio behind the Age of Empires series, is no more. Halo Wars, their first title for the Xbox 360, is also their last title - ever. Sad (and inexplicable) as that is, let it not predispose you to assume this game is no...

  • Solid gameplay, smooth frame-rate and graphics, familiar Halo units throughout.
  • Weak story, may be too linear and inflexible for some hardcore RTS gamers.

  • Looks great, Controls brilliantly, Well balanced multiplayer
  • Uninspiring upgrade system
  • Just like the controls, the resource structure is quite straight forward. The way to collect resources in the game is either finding the scattered supplies sitting around the map, or building more supply depots, which are your only steady source of inc...

  • unglaublich detaillierte Zwischensequenzen, spannende Storyline, abwechslungsreiche Missionen, taktischer Basenbau, schnelles Gameplay, Kooperationsmodus, durchdachte Steuerung, professionelle Synchronisation, vielfältige Schlachtfelder
  • schlechte KI, viel zu kurze Kampagne, ...nur auf Seiten der Menschen, unausgewogene Mehrspielerschlachten, wenige Mehrspielermodi
  • Ich bin einfach hin und her gerissen. Es gibt viel Licht und Schatten, aber zum Glück scheint Halo Wars deutlich heller als die Fehler, die es im Dunkel des Gamedesigns verbirgt. Es entfacht eine unnachahmliche Atmosphäre: Die Zwischensequenzen sind ge...
