WorthPlaying: Halo Wars Historic Battle DLC

WorthPlaying writes: "Several months ago, Halo Wars hit the Xbox 360 and was supposed to change the way people saw strategy games on consoles. It was supposed to revolutionize real-time strategy into a genre that's just as amazing on consoles as it is on PC. The end result confirmed the longtime cries of PC gamers about things getting dumbed down on consoles. While the game played well, it ended up having a "My first RTS" feel to it, with limited options for base building, unit caps and management. The result was a game that ran its course in a hurry and left players wanting more. The first DLC pack, Halo Wars: Strategic Options added several new game modes, but it still managed to feel like a rip-off at $10. The second problem was that not very many people online actually had the DLC pack, which meant that the players who had paid the $10 were stuck playing the downloadable content on their own instead of with others."

I think Crackdown would fit in a more turn-based tactics system via Xcom then a RTS type game play. Being able to customize multiple agents, deploying that group in an crime infested urban zone, going against other super powered enemy and fodder type thugs. The potential for that is huge if they won't do another successful, ground breaking, GOTY open world outing like Crackdown 3....

I could see that. I feel like State of Decay could spin-off into something strategic as well.

Actually that would be kind of fly if they made it a turn base RTS.

Crackdown tactics would be legit!!

Halo CE over Halo Infinite anyday

Not to mention the impact it had at the time

Flawlessmic720d ago

Halo 3 at the top is correct the only thing id change is swap infinite and halo ce around.

AuraAbjure720d ago

Halo 4 best campaign and multiplayer. Halo 3 best story.

Are you trying to give people cancer?

AuraAbjure719d ago (Edited 719d ago )

Halo 4 has the hottest Cortana too which explains why the MC is the hardest in that campaign and why H4's multiplayer is the illest. Chief ain't afraid to take on teleporting enemies that can one hit melee kill.

I feel like I see these articles often. Either way, just going by main titles as a whole package not just on MP I’d say;
Best 2,3,1,4,5 worst.
Story only;
Best 1,2,3,4,5 worst.
MP only
Best 2,3,5,1,4 worst.

Popsicle997d ago (Edited 997d ago )

Great list Deathdeliverer! The only place we differ is that I would put Halo 3 MP over Halo 2 MP, but gaming preferences are subjective and there are really no right or wrong answers. We match exactly on everything else. And yes, these list are made all the time, but they still get me to click on them. Lol!

Deathdeliverer996d ago

I was really torn between the two so I’ll call it a toss up. They are head and shoulders above the other Halo Mps. It’s Halo 2/3 (in any order) then a pause, then the rest.
