Best Strategy Game: Halo Wars While it wasn’t as graphically as impressive as it looked through video and screenshots, the one thing we can say about Halo Wars is the accessibility the game contains. Having some of the simplest controls for any RTS on the consoles, Halo Wars is user-friendly and should have Halo fanatics excited when they have the ability to have a handful of Spartans on the field defeating Covenant troops.
Other Notable Contenders: Command and Conquer: Red Alert 3, Tom Clancy's EndWar
What's Not
The game almost feels too simple, too streamlined.
The RTS genre is characterized by and beloved for the frenzied
multi-tasking, the layers of micromanagement, and those make-or-break
decisions that mean the difference between victory and defeat. The
hardest of the hardcore RTS fans, the kind that love games like Company
of Heroes and are looking forward to Starcraft II, might not get enough
out of Halo Wars. Its kind of weak that only two, TWO, races have been
announced thus far (The Flood have basically been confirmed, but not
officially), the lowest number since Warcraft II well over a decade
ago. The two races, unit-wise, were also pretty similar to each other,
and Starcraft proved long ago that the best battles come from races
that are equal but very different. If the Covenant are simply
the UNSC with a different skin, Elite for Spartan, Scorpion for Wraith,
Warthog for Banshee, then that will hurt the game's long-term appeal.
Halo fans, console-exclusive gamers and relative newcomers to the genre
on the other hand, will probably appreciate the game's straight-forward
nature.
