I agree Soulself, the rts games were bad on the computer because of how you control them with the mouse gets really annoying but with the analog sticks it makes it easier.

Ensemble has absolutely no plans to put Halo Wars onto the PC. They made the control scheme for the 360 specifically, that is why past RTS games on consoles aren't good, because they are ports, this is not a port. If you were to give one RTS game for the console a chance, let it be this one, because if ensemble can't do it in collaboration with Halo, then RTS games on consoles will truly NEVER be successful.

I really hope they make this for the PC because RTS on consoles are really bad. But they most likely will.

@ beddies
C&C Tiberian Sun only had two races and its still being playing online today, not as many people as it used to have but its a testimate to a game if its still being played online.

or maybe the brutes

i would think that playing as only two races would get boring real qiuck.

To d3dev3d,
Are you mentally challenged? it says in the trailer that its on harvest
To zachary9990
It comes out Spring 09
To gamerguy727 I agree the ending does suck

HELL NO DUDE this looks like it takes place on earth which if it does will piss me the hell off. if this takes place on earth it totally invalidates halo 1, the pillar of autumn was running because they didnt want the covenant to find earth and halo wars takes place before halo 1 right so how the hell do the covenant know where earth is
