So you think you like Halo? Well check this out, there is a whole game solely based on controlling a whole army or Spartans to battle the Covenant. Based on the first 3 Halo games, the creators of Age of Empires have created this real war-like game called, Halo Wars In the previous Halo games you only controlled one player, Master Chief, but in this game you get to control a large army of Spartan’s and battle the Covenant.

This puts a whole new twist on the Halo series. Halo is pretty much an all out action game. But with its new creators, Halo Wars has become a real strategy game. Unlike all the other Halo games, you followed a path and killed everyone in your way. Now you really have to think about what you are going to do, where you are going to deploy your troops, where you are going to drop an air strike. I think this puts a really great twist to the Halo series. Halo Wars puts it self in a more real-life genre like other games such as, Call Of Duty, Socom, and Battlefront. This new twist might bring in a lager crowd of gamers. Personally I am a fan of the old Halo games and I love being able to control one guy and kill whom I want. But I also can’t wait to get my hands on this new game and actually see it for my self. Who knows maybe this will start of new generation with Halo.
