Off topic chat. Basically anything that doesn't concern halo or halo modding can go here.

Hmm, that's an interesting perspective. Maybe it would be like battlefront, but I doubt it.

The things landing in the trailer were more like mobile command centers, note their size and the turrets, each of them seemingly able to hold 4-5 scorpions, and then look at the one on Relic. There's quite a difference.

Starcraft was made in 1994, so the graphics sucked, like all the gfx in old games, now lets not turn this into a Starcraft topic.

Indeed, PC was '98, Mac was '99 - No where near '94.

No, the graphics were awesome. They didn't suck. Then, obviously... Now we belive them to be "sucky" or "crappy". Back then, they were excellent.

Personally, StarCraft remains the best game of its kind to date, In my opinion. Halo Wars<Starcraft. Halo Wars simply doesn't look like a good game. Good little short, but not a good game. Halo simply wasn't supposed to be like that.

Halogen would have satisfied everyone's Halo RTS needs...but NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! :evil:

C&C>Starcraft...I still don't see why Starcraft was so good (I played it online, I finished SP) it was ok dont get me wrong...But I enjoy a captivating story of modern combat with a twist which is featured in c&c...My one true love...
If only it was on this pc...

I hope there is a skirmish mode for people without xbl and who have finished campaign...

lol, offtopic, but... GameTag, have you only just discovered Crab Battle :P I watched that soo much back in the day.

I actually don't care much for Halo Wars anymore, more intested in Halo 3 and the other Peter Jackson Project.

Since we have no idea what anything in Halowars will be like (gameplay wise) perhaps we shouldn't be comparing it to others...

I don't know if it has been posted yet, but the Warthogs in the trailer have rear-view mirrors. Maybe they're going to make everything a bit more realistic..
