Looks like any other RTS, only with shitty Bungie art.

*yawn* puts ducky on ignore for E3

They just had one of the Ensemble dudes in studio for their live E3 thing on G4 demoing Halo Wars (they had some folks from Lionhead playing Fable 2 earlier). Spring 09, it looks like. Play as Covenant during skirmish mode, co-op for the campaign, that sort of stuff. Probably not news to anyone paying attention, but I don't pay attention.

After watching the G4 footage just now, it seems to be just that.  Actually maybe a bit less.

Curious to see how the reactions to the game will be from the press. I know that because E3 is primarily a console show now most of the PC strategy folk have penciled in a stop in for Halo Wars as part of the schedule, and I'll be interested to know if they made a compelling game or just another awkward PC RTS shoehorned into a console.
