The Halo Wars cutscenes sound like a departure from the way the story is handled in previous Halo titles– in a good way. The guys are only talking in detail about the gameplay, no story stuff here. It sounds like they are really liking it, especially the controls, and that is saying a lot for a game like this on console. This looks to be a very action centered RTS, sounds right seeing as this is Halo.
More universal dislike for the controls of Resident Evil 5. The survival horror has really evolved since RE4. I am currently playing through Dead Space and that really is the new bar for what a survival horror game should be. Coop is good though right?
It’s been hard. It’s been painful. It’s been really difficult, but we can finally talk about Halo Wars. We’ve been playing the full review code for some time, you see. We kept our lips sealed before, but now it’s time to talk. That’s pretty much the highlight this week. Oh sure, we talk about the news and read some fanmail, but we know why you’re really listening. It’s okay. We like it. Go ahead and listen.

I’ve always been a big fan of the Halo games, and I loved Halo Wars the best. I totally agree with the EverHype review (they’re a great site that lets users hype moves, music, and games that they love and hate – check them out at http://www.everhype.com/?utm_source=bc) that gave it 5 stars and called it “Pleasing.”
