Small Halo

I have been playing Halo Wars.
This is the Halo game not made by the makers of Halo.
Halo Wars is a real time tactical game.
This is not a first person shooter.
The story telling graphics are beautiful. More so than the ones seen in Halo 3.
You command an entire army. You build bases, once the bases are built you can build tanks, warthogs, and other vehicles. You can also train troops types such as granaders, flame throwers, and more. All the troops and vehicles are small but well detailed and run about on large but very well done maps.
The audio is well done. The graphics are also well done.
The controls take some getting use to but can be mastered.
All in all this is a must rent for Halo fans. Some will not enjoy the fact this is not a first person shooter.
I gave Halo Wars a 4 out of 5 if you enjoy this style game. If you want a shooter wait for Halo 3.5 due later this year.
