No sé por qué nunca me lo llegué a terminar. Creo que moría siempre contra el Scarab y lo dejé, pero jugué un montón. Tardabas en entender cómo funcionaban las cosas, pero luego molaba. El late de todos los niveles estaba guapísimo, acababas estando roto
This game was therapy for every time I followed a marine around a halo mission only to watch him get domed by a sniper jackal, WHY DID YOU TURN THAT CORNER GOD DAMNIT. Now I can finally protect them all.
Babies first RTS. All it has is the Halo license, and that's all it needs.

I enjoyed my time with this game, even if most of it comes from playing an RTS for the first time again and not from the Halo part.
This game's set 20 years before Halo 1, so there's an entirely new crew we get accustomed to. I guess they fit the bare minimum? Forge is the most charismatic guy there but he's nowhere near Johnson. Serina has some sass to her but she still feels like a more generic AI, probably the result of being tied to an army instead of a single Spartan. A new Arbiter is much more cruel and unaware of the Prophet's manipulation and while it's cool seeing another one it's kind of sad knowing that there can only be one with depth.
There are a handful of issues here: the pathfinding is very janky. The campaign has a difficulty spike in like the third or fourth mission, whichever one is the mission where you have to defend three ships. My dumbass thought I could run this on Heroic like the mainline games and got my ass kicked there multiple times.
God, I just wish Halo would experiment with more genres. We get twin stick shooters and a sequel to this game and then nothing else. I should stop before I start getting mad at the extended universe again.

I like when such a huge universe such as Halo gets more diversity in game genre. This RTS style was new for console and I think they nailed it for controllers. Not my type of genre but the missions were OK, using the Spartans to board Wraiths and Banshees was fun, and the cutscenes were awesome.
I originally dabbled with Halo Wars on the 360, since I'm a huge RTS fan. But I never beat it. When I binged the series back in 2021, I played Halo Wars first on PC since it's the first game chronologically. It's a solid RTS game, but not quite up to par with many other RTS games. It definitely plays better on PC as opposed to console, but I've gotta give it credit for actually being a playable RTS on console.
I love the Spartan team featured in this game and I wish they got more screentime outside of this series. Spartan Jerome is a lunatic in the same way Chief is, he's awesome.
Solid but unremarkable RTS overall, but being Halo helps it a ton.
Score: 81

Better than I expected.

It's...decent, not worth the playthrough.
Gracias por introducirme al mundo de los RTS y el dolor
this isn't an rts game there is no strategy involved, its fan service for halo nerds
A surprisingly fun game. The controls are very intuitive and don't feel like their holding the game back too much. It is a simple game when compared to its contemporaries like Age of Empires, but it's just as fun and replayable as those games. The worst part is definitely the campaign. The story is rather shallow and there is a random difficulty spike that almost ruins it.
Ensemble Studios final game before they went under became one of the best RTS games on console. Very streamlined and simple gameplay, but also engaging and enjoyable. The difficulty also scales to your skill level so it never stays boring. Fun game.
Great game and had really good controls for a rts game on the xbox 360!
If you like RTS games, this one's a must-have. If you're a Halo fan, this one's a must-have. If you like videogames, this one's a must have. If y-
I'm trash at RTSGs, but enjoyed it none the less
The best RTS to hit consoles. Great from start to finish, though at times a bit limiting in content.

I'm not a fan of RTS games at all, so it should say something that I enjoyed this game a fair amount. Good starting point if you're looking to get into the genre
solid kids' rts
They made me play an RTS and I kinda enjoyed it actually.
Simple RTS with a good story and a great addition to the lore. Especially being an Xbox 360 title, this game does RTS great, feels very smooth on pc and console. Definitely play if you're a fan of RTS games, or maybe just looking to get into them and or Halo.
An RTS that works for console. Somehow.
Its an rts created for console, so its a little shallow, to make up for the lack of granular control. But its a solid entry using a tried and true setting. I mean, its halo, come on.
My first RTS game and one that holds a special place in my heart!
Halo wars was a pleasantly surprising game as im not one for top down strategy games but this one hooked me.
For starters i think the controls were very well adapted to controllers as most of these type of games that come to consoles usually have very bad controls as they dont convert well from pc so big probs for that. This game is also a blast if you're playing with friends and ive spent countless hours doing many different challenges on halo wars with a friend of mine. Also enjoy the learning curve to this game understanding what units are suitable for each map what are the best bases to control ext. Definitely the best halo spinoff compared to whatever halo spartan assault was.
However for negatives id say that the campaign in this game is pretty boring and i preferred the campaign in 2s, the maps can also get pretty boring after you've played the game so much as there arent that many to chose from and playing against legendary ai get ready to combat some of the most bs things the game can throw at you and it'll just take alot of luck and patience to defeat the legendary ai.
Overall though i love this game and id say its better than the 343 halo's. Definitely play it if you're unsure as im not a big fan of this genre yet this has come out as one of my favourite multiplayer experiences with my friends

its really cool how they took what was actually gonna be halo 1 and made in its own spinoff series. game looks great and controls great i would just recommend playing it on PC if you can
neat
I had a lot of fun with this, even though I suck at RTS. Maybe it's because it was a toned down RTS?
