Brilliant. I first had my eye on this when someone done a C&C mod.

Playing the demo is great fun, anyone else tried it?

Yeah it's a great RTS for the 360, no holding 3 buttons to do something a much loved universe and a prequel before Master Chief.

Love being the Covenant and that will be the faction i play online for sure, Scarab ftw :)

3v3 online will be a blast and co-op campaign to boot.

I had it preordered before the demo but the demo just sealed my order for good.

I did enjoy it, wasn't expecting to though. I hope they bring it to the PC, just seems wrong havin a RTS game that is not on a PC aswell. Or at least add mouse support to the game

Finally got around to playing 3 demo's yesterday - Named Halo Wars, Res5, and Killzone 2.

Halo Wars I was surprised how easy the controls were but also how good it was so I'll be getting that.

Killzone 2 felt like more of an average FPS so I may get it.

Res5 I hated the camera and controls so that's a no go for me :)

yeah Res5 was shocking, i know the whole standing still to shoot was Res thing but it just felt static. And Res was all about suspense, not about being hit my hundreds of zombies.

I wasn't that impressed with Halo Wars, but I'll give it another go.

Res 5 - yes, wtf? I remember playing the first Resident Evil, talk about scary (disclamer, I was around 12).

Which was best though ?

2 probably had the best story but 1 was scarier and 3 had better gameplay (plus probably the best gfx on PS2).

tbfh, I could stick most of my friends in a Halo top and get a better result than that =< She's not even pretty to my friend standards =< Though, suppose she'd work for Halo and WoW... Would like to see a FF fan-girl.. or DoA.

I really enjoyed the single player campaign and the multiplayer for a little while. Until you realise that there is no advantage to a 'combined arms' approach. The best tactic is just to send out large numbers of just one unit type, it is almost a guaranteed win.

Yawn.
