Go to War With Halo This March

We've got an official date for Ensemble Studio's swan song, Halo Wars. You can expect to take plenty of Covenant guys and some Mister Chiefs to battle this coming March 3rd in the US and a little earlier (Feb 27th) for our UK friends.

One month ago, Microsoft announced that Halo Wars would ship in February. Today, the software giant revealed it would miss its previously scheduled launch window…but only just. The Xbox 360 exclusive spin-off of the popular first-person shooter series will launch in North and South America on March 3, five days after its European launch on February 27. In Japan and Asia, localized versions of the game will go on sale February 26.

Remember folks, this one controls better (http://evilavatar.com/forums/showthread.php?t=70789) than PC RTS titles.

I wants a demo.

Look the whole idiotic Keyboard / mouse argument vs controller is stupid. Just once I'd like to see an FPS where consoles and PC's can play against each other. Has that ever happened? Did *** live ever mix pc and controller players??

No gee wonder why??

Take a look at a little title called Shadowrun.

Take a look at a little title called Shadowrun.
Because of the lack of 'pixel-accuracy' with the Xbox 360 analog thumbstick, the designers have included an aim-assisting technology, which basically interpolates the player's movement and causes the reticle to stay over an enemy player like a weak magnet. In addition, FASA has implemented a feature which causes the crosshair to expand during quick movements, thus lowering the player's accuracy, making it impossible to quickly turn and maintain accuracy, reducing the potential advantage of playing with a mouse.[6] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shadowrun_%282007_video_game%29#cite_note-5)[7] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shadowrun_%282007_video_game%29#cite_note-6) PC players, who have a more sensitive control scheme, are able to turn significantly faster than their controller-using counterparts and would have gained an unfair advantage.:rolleyes:

You claimed no one mixed console and PC players. I provided you an example of where you were incorrect. I never claimed that they made it a great experience, just that it had been done. Orz provided another.
