Halo Wars: Definitive Edition

第二部为何不上呢

decent game, this game is better than halo wars 2 in almost every way. cons is, 1 single player mission sucks, chapter 4 in campaign drags on for way to long and should of been 10 minutes, instead of 20, where your just bored for half of the mission. pros this is sold on steam, unlike halo wars 2.

A Halo-themed action-RTS. You build your army and attack everything that moves. It works excellently on the Steam Deck; the controls are intuitive and very well-done. The story is classic Halo: bad guys are looking for a weapon that can destroy humanity, and you have to stop them.

it was a great game back in 2009 AND still is a great game in 2026.

[h1] When Spartans Went Strategic: The RTS Experiment of Halo Wars [/h1] Halo Wars was released in the early months of 2009 as an Xbox 360 exclusive. It was developed by the very studio that founded the glorious Age of Empires RTS saga, and it stands as their final project before the studio sadly closed its doors later that same year. Halo Wars was a risky gamble. It sought to combine the Halo franchise—the symbol of first-person shooters and the icon of the Xbox brand—with the RTS genre, a style of play that was predominantly a PC stronghold. While today it's common to see PC titles ported to consoles, this kind of endeavor was a rare sight back in its day. Because this title was designed specifically for console hardware, it comes with its own set of pros and cons. The interface style, the visual design, the resource management, and the control mapping all clearly reflect that it was meant to be played with a gamepad. That said, if you happen to have a keyboard and mouse at hand, adapting to it is incredibly easy. This is largely due to the fact that Halo Wars is a relatively straightforward RTS when compared to other giants in the genre. It's noticeable that this was the first attempt at this particular approach; the gameplay variety, both in terms of unit types and available factions, is admittedly sparse. However, it fulfills its function remarkably well. From a narrative perspective, Halo Wars holds its own as a proper Halo entry. It delivers excellent cinematics, a grand musical score that stands shoulder-to-shoulder with the mainline saga, and a compelling story set 30 years before the events of the first game. It's clear that this installment was the more modest of the two, given that the sequel—released in 2017—expands on everything with more content and polish. Here's hoping Microsoft eventually graces us with a Steam release for that sequel

A wonderful, simple little RTS that somehow plays excellently with a controller. If you like Halo as an IP, you will probably get a lot of enjoyment out of Halo Wars. For me, it's a cozy game. I played it to death on console, and matchmaking is empty, so it's just a cozy game to get into against AI and have some fun for a bit.

"smash em" "ramming" -me when warthog special i played this on the Xbox 360 as one of my first ever halo games but never got into the multiplayer so i wasn't too disappointed when it was offline still very peak game. also sergeant forge my beloved will be missed halo wars 2 pc port when? (10/10)

One of the few RTS games that l love and adore, first played it on console when it came out, and so glad i'm able to play on steam and enjoy it, I love the story and lore that adds onto the Halo franchise, I prefer this one over the 2nd one. I def recommend this game pretty simple and i love the units more on this one as opposed to the 2nd one!

This game should have gotten more love then it got, It is such a blast to play and for 20 bucks you really get your money worth
