HALO WARS 2 - The First 40 Minutes

Strategy games…on a console? If you’re a PC gamer, then the very idea of that beloved genre popping anywhere outside of the almighty PC is ridiculous. Heck, it might even border on treason. Thing is, we’ve had strategy games on consoles before. From The Banner Saga through to Prison Architect, consoles have long been able to play around with the genre. But few of them, did it as well as the first Halo Wars 2 did.

That’s a game that knew its audience. That knew that to succeed, it’d have to find a way to map the advantages of a mouse and keyboard setup to a regular Xbox 360 controller. And that it did, creating something unique on that console. And also underrated. It was Halo seen not from the view of a Spartan super-soldier, but rather the commander who sent troops into battle and co-ordinated their efforts, deciding who lived and who died in a grand game of cosmic chess.
