But what didn't you like about H3? I thought it was a pretty solid game.

I really liked the campaign but, you can only play it so much before you get tired of it, and online really annoyed me with all the childish trashtalking and cheating.
Back when it first came out I was real power player and had nothing better to do, so i got all the achievments within a month of it coming out. By then i was tired of it.
The ranking system was also crap. Anyone could cheat it. Overall it just wasn't as great as the first two.

Well since you've played it I'm sure you know that you can only turn to a certain point before it stops you. I said FULL control, I know you can move it around a bit, just not as much as I'd like

Oh, okay. Yeah you get some interesting people online, I'm usually in a chat with my buddies so I don't hear it.

i love halo, and iv been waitin for this for a while! i havent downloaded the demo yet, but im planning on it 2marro! i cant wait!!

ehh... if they'd let this out on the PC i'd play it... but i refuse to play RTS on a console. 2 sticks, 2 triggers, 1 dpad, and 6 viable buttons are not nearly enough for an RTS... not to mention that unit selection is always a bitch.

Do not want. i'll wait 3 days for DoW:2, and then however long it is until SC2 gets released.

That's what i thought too, it was going to suck and be awful, and you couldn't select stuff fast enough. But they got it pretty good, buttons for all units, on screen units, double clicking units, quick pick (select a size circle).

Yea, but a 360* circle, and the 20* of up/down is good enough i think... well, for me anyway.

SCII is the new starcraft, but halo wars looks fun as hell.
