2006-09-28 00:43:05
 
I love Halo, I also love RTS. Me FTW!
2006-09-28 00:48:17
 
Next Halo wont be an FPS? Wow, way to f*ck up a franchise. Well, itll still sell well cuz people are sheep, but itll piss em off before they buy it, big time.
2006-09-28 01:07:50
 
Love the vid for this...hi-def available from the producers site
2006-09-28 01:17:49
 
Generally trying to translate RTS to FPS or vise versa, hasnt worked well in the past.....C&C Renegade anyone?
2006-09-28 01:20:28
 
halo not my thing
2006-09-28 01:28:04
 
I hate you, I hate Halo, thumbs down
2006-09-28 01:29:01
 
Looks awesome... btw they are still going to make a FPS game. Peter Jackson is working with them on it :P
2006-09-28 01:29:11
 
BigVanVader This isnt Halo 3, that on has been in production for months, this one is new.
2006-09-28 01:31:01
 
direct quote from http://www.bungie.net/News/TopStory.aspx?link=bungieatx06 "By now you may have read elsewhere that two new Halo game projects have been announced – the Halo Wars real time strategy game from Ensemble and the as-yet unrevealed Halo project to be made in partnership with Lord of the Rings and King Kong director, Peter Jackson. Both projects are for Xbox 360." so dont panic! :)
2006-09-28 01:40:28
 
Well just so you know, there was going to be a C&C Generals mod called Halogen.... a halo rts but Microsoft shut it down. http://halogen.slipstreamproductions.net/ lol.
2006-09-28 01:41:57
 
It looks pretty sweet. Also, Halo downvoters fail at life.
2006-09-28 01:48:11
 
Hay Guys Halo is not lik quake at all! Quake Wars Anyone?
2006-09-28 02:06:12
 
"Halo downvoters fail at life" Amen. They do not like QUALITY.
2006-09-28 02:22:56

2006-09-28 02:40:56
 
They should make a Halo RPG. Now that would be something LMAO.
2006-09-28 02:54:54
 
I liked it better when it was called Starcraft!
2006-09-28 03:45:09
 
HAY GUYZ I POSTED A LINK VOTE 5!!! RTS suck for consoles, everyone knows that. Dont pee your pants just because its halo.
2006-09-28 03:52:26
 
HEY, THIS IS COOL NEWS! I THINK I WILL PRESS PRINT SCREEN AND POST THIS AT YTMND.COM! - What you're thinking.
2006-09-28 04:05:52
 
Why do people nut over halo? It's an AVERAGE game. It isn't any more special than any other FPS.
2006-09-28 04:48:45
 
I'm an avid FPS gamer and I hate Halo.
2006-09-28 04:51:02
 
needs more halo1gamer.
2006-09-28 06:01:15
 
If it came out for PC, I might buy it...
2006-09-28 06:04:33
 
halo is the most over rated piece of sh*t ever. Go play some Perfect Dark or Half Life and see what a first person shooter should be. Not halfass level design with repetition of the SAME GOD DAMN HALLWAYS AND ROOMS.
2006-09-28 06:07:22
 
I READ THE NEWS AND MADE A YTMND! I'm so bored of stuff like this. Why rehash news?
2006-09-28 06:22:16
 
I approve of a Halo RTS for the PC. also, ^_^
2006-09-28 06:26:44
 
that actually looks kinda cool.
2006-09-28 06:36:21
 
Why don't you show something decent like the game trailer that's been out for god-knows how long? Jesus H. Christ. LOL! SCREENSHOT-OF-IGN TIME!
2006-09-28 06:40:03
 
Halo is ok, but this is a terrible YTMND.
2006-09-28 06:40:15
 
seriously, don't post this stuff on ytmnd. You'll just get downvoted. The people who want to know about this stuff will find out on they're own. If your a Halo fan (me), theres no way you wouldn't find out. I knew about this as soon as it became public on the internet. May not come out until 2008 :(
2006-09-28 06:41:06
 
rts game? I couldn't care less.
2006-09-28 06:41:21
 
""Halo downvoters fail at life" Amen. They do not like QUALITY." You f*cking idiot. Get off YTMND immediately. There's nothing about this site that has anything remotely related to "quality."
2006-09-28 06:48:02
 
You do not make ytmnds to get people to see a video. Maybe you should have used a clip from the video, but don't make a site like this.
2006-09-28 07:01:46
 
I hate these kind od YTMND, absolutly zero creativity.
2006-09-28 07:29:08
 
It may be cool... Could this be the "Jumping the Shark", So when are we getting the Sat Morning Cartoon???
2006-09-28 07:32:41
 
Better have Mouse and Keyboard support or I wouldn't even concider buying it...
2006-09-28 07:33:06
 
halo sucks even more now

I watched the video. Looks like a gay version of StarCraft.
2006-09-28 08:54:08
 
Halo wasn't that good of a game. To me, the story was a little dry, I was uninterested in a lot of it. And the gameplay itself wasn't too great either. Though I did enjoy the vehicles and some of the weapondry. Need to see gameplay before I can have an idea how good this one will be.
2006-09-28 08:58:16
 
yea i knew about halogen. it makes me mad bungie took their idea
2006-09-28 09:27:04
 
if you're going to post a link, why not http://www.halowars.com/ ?
2006-09-28 09:42:51
 
so this is why Microsoft shut down Halogen mod for C&C generals they were afraid they would be outdone by a simple mod team, not suprising really oh well
2006-09-28 09:44:56
 
Halo Wars (and the new Banjo game) are slowly making me reach toward my wallet for a 360... but as a YTMND? Come on, anybody could just go to IGN and see this.
2006-09-28 10:09:20
 
LOL Starcraft rip off :D
2006-09-28 10:11:42
 
I still don't understand why Halo get's the attention it gets from the gaming community. It's amazing how quickly you can spread lies about how great your product is when you have billions of dollars at your disposal. That is the very reason I refuse to buy a 360. Idiotic, uninformed wannabe gamers buy it thinking Halo is the godliest game to ever be created, never exposing themselves to games that are actually good.
2006-09-28 10:26:47
 
"Well just so you know, there was going to be a C&C Generals mod called Halogen.... a halo rts but Microsoft shut it down. http://halogen.slipstreamproductions.net/ lol." Yeah, sry to disappoint you guys :(
2006-09-28 10:35:09
 
People who think Halo=Quality fail at life and gaming 0_o
2006-09-28 10:37:55
 
I hate HALO haters. They hate the games because everyone else likes them. They're not overrated. They EARNED they're f*cking popularity by being so good. but this ytmnd is not good.
2006-09-28 10:39:59
 
Most of the people on this site only like pc games like half life. If you tak about a popular console game you will be downvoted by all these idiot pc fanboys
2006-09-28 11:03:17
 
O RLY?
2006-09-28 11:18:12
 
but that's not game play is it? cause that'd be impressive
2006-09-28 11:26:10
 
lol rts on a console
2006-09-28 11:34:12
 
1'd for Halo queerness.
2006-09-28 11:47:03
 
Looked completely f*ggoty... If you are a real gamer... You will wait for portal. |: L
2006-09-28 11:47:44
 
Halo 3 is still being developed by Bungie, Halo Wars is being developed by Ensemble. The original Halo started as a Mac RTS, then moved to a 3rd person shooter, then finally an Xbox FPS. Halo Wars is being developed specifically for the Xbox 360, so it will be built for a controller. It will likely be much more combat based rather than base building and economy. Halo 1 is on the PC, Halo 2 is coming to the PC on Vista, Halo Wars will likely make it there in time.
2006-09-28 11:48:44
 
I love you guys on YTMND. Halo haters = my best friends. You guys are real gamers, f*ck that f*ggoty franchise.
2006-09-28 11:49:44
 
Only for 360...console rts FTL.

YTMND is not a news site.
2006-09-28 13:33:20
 
If Bungie can't make an FPS that isn't a pile of sh*t, how do you think they're gonna handle an RTS?
2006-09-28 13:37:24

2006-09-28 14:10:01
 
Halo sucks,just a cheap *ss remake of Metroid >
2006-09-28 14:11:53
 
I dont think Halo is much fun. Why is it fun to kill and shoot Aliens/bug-thingies? Compared to Goldeneye 007 the Halo series is nothing. Give me humans and good game levels anyday.
2006-09-28 14:23:22
 
People don't understand. HALO WAS ORIGINALLY AN RTS! After years of development it grew into an FPS, but most things in Halo like the backstory, the theme and the ring-shaped world were originally made for an RTS. I've seen most of the vehicles in Halo (including some Halo 2 vehicles: spectre, gauss hog) in the pixely screenshots of the early rts development stages. Now Halo is going to be the game it was originally planned to be.
2006-09-28 14:25:07
 
5 for leakage
2006-09-28 14:27:26
 
I'm just pointing out that it isn't just taking a franchise and sucking it dry. It's more like taking the original concept of something and finishing it. If a movie script turns out to be a good book to read it doesn't mean that the movie is going to be awful.
2006-09-28 14:29:25
 
SECRET HALO MARKETING CAMPAIGN FOR THE INSTANT ONE
2006-09-28 14:35:27
 
And again, the reason Halo has a good setting for an RTS game is because the game was originally an RTS. If someone would make some sort of Halo-based RPG or a "Forerunner puzzle game", I would say it's crap. The only problem is that when this game comes out, haters of the FPS will say "dis is crap lol i haev nevr playd it but iv playd teh fps and it sukd becus it dusnt recuir skill or taktics. wut u mean dont use teh easyest diffecultee?" By the way, 5 for good news :)
2006-09-28 14:36:10
 
1'd cause I hate this when they only post some stupid trailer and no gameplay video. Plus bad voice acting in it.
2006-09-28 14:36:53
 
Halo was ORIGINALLY for the PC, c*ckbags.
2006-09-28 14:38:50
 
RTS? Failed.
2006-09-28 14:42:06
 
@ achivai: actually, it was originally planned for the Mac.
2006-09-28 14:51:17
 
I'm kind of pissed off about that, really... I'm not much of a RTS fan, which is probably the reason. There's also not much here except for the link, and the screenshot, and the Halo 2 theme. Maybe an animation of sorts, or some clips would make this better?
2006-09-28 14:53:04
 
"If Bungie can't make an FPS that isn't a pile of sh*t, how do you think they're gonna handle an RTS?" It was originally an RTS, and it's not being developed by Bungie, it's being developed by Ensemble, who have a good history of RTS'
2006-09-28 14:55:26
 
You have got to be kidding. That game will = FAIL
2006-09-28 15:08:24
 
halo sucks c*ck
2006-09-28 15:08:59
 
its just a news story with music
2006-09-28 15:10:20
 
I won't be taking part in buying or pirating this game. YTMND isn't a news site.
2006-09-28 15:14:20
 
Who the hell would play an RTS with a console controller? That gimps you almost as much as playing an FPS with one...
2006-09-28 15:26:45
 
Halo and all other Console FPS Games are overrated. The PC is where it started and the control scheme beats all. Its the same case for RTS, I don't give a sh*t if they do claim to have a good scheme for the controller, nothing can beat mouse and hotkeys for Strategy Games.
2006-09-28 15:28:13
 
Halo sucks
2006-09-28 15:34:25
 
I could of gone to the f*cking website myself thank you very much.

Wow, the first spinoff of a mediocre game that should not have survived in the first place
2006-09-28 16:37:30
 
I don't really like RTS, but if it was really as fast paced as the trailer, I'll play it.

No RTS has ever succeeded on a console. Why would this work?

'' halo is the most over rated piece of sh*t ever. Go play some Perfect Dark or Half Life and see what a first person shooter should be. Not halfass level design with repetition of the SAME GOD DAMN HALLWAYS AND ROOMS.'' that's exactly what i say and nobody listens to me. see people love sh*t. thats why everyone loves halo. hell wolfenstein 3d is better than halo. also, f*ck halo. f*ck halo fanboys and f*ck bungie.

Actually it might not go on PC, Battle for Middle Earth II didn't and that did fine.

why the hell do people think RTS on a console is a good idea!?!?!

2006-09-28 18:12:58

2006-09-28 18:48:26
 
Halo is a horrible game. FPS on console can never match a computer. No matter how much you wish Its not so wont change that fact.
2006-09-28 18:52:20
 
says exclusively xbox, and i can't think of ANY console RTS that ever failed miserably...
2006-09-28 19:01:06
 
Turambar: Ever played Battle for Middle Earth II? Apparently not. It doesn't exactly beat Starcraft but I'd probably rate it at least equal with Warcraft III.

1 for having "halo" and "1337" as keywords together.
2006-09-28 20:46:01
 
Genre crossovers tend to fail pretty hard. WoW is about the only success story, and would you want HALO to turn into WoW?

halo = (watered down hl + hl2) - awesome - innovation + crappy console controls + craptacular 4-way screen 1998 goldeneye era multiplayer + the pistol is used to snipe... + unrelenting 13 year old fanboys + it's way in the future but the best weapons humanity has are a sh*tty looking famas and 2 mp7's + you can ride a jeep! YAY! . . .

2006-09-28 21:39:36

F*ck you you f*cking *ssh*l*e that game is going to be terrible you f*cking moron.

Halo is for gamers who have no game.
2006-09-28 22:01:23
 
And so the milking begins...
2006-09-28 22:04:07
 
upvote, because I've always wished halo was an RTS. It always should have been
2006-09-28 22:04:35
 
You hurt my feelings v.v
2006-09-28 22:15:22
 
Everyone here is just playa haters. They all hate halo cause there mommys wouldn't buy it for them.
2006-09-28 22:17:11
 
lol, console
2006-09-28 22:22:41
 
You could really wonder what causes such hate just into a single game. Anyways I am upvoting, because these people are just little kids taking their anger out on this ytmnd.

Least amount of effort + "halo" in the title + blind fanboys = maximum profit. THEY GOT YOU GOOD, F*CKERS! Halo 3's gonna be the same way. "OMGLOL BUT IN HALO 3 YOU'RE GONNA SEE MASTER CHIEF'S FACE LOL!!" Shut up. They know you'll buy it no matter what.
2006-09-28 22:24:18
 
this doesn't need to exist.
2006-09-28 22:24:27
 
And this ytmnd shoudn't have to suffer because of little kiddies.
2006-09-28 22:27:20
 
^Little kiddies like you posting and talking crap here? Oh lawd.

2006-09-28 23:36:21

2006-09-28 23:42:39
 
1. Not because I hate RTS. I love RTS. But no effort. :(
2006-09-29 00:06:32
 
So this is why they shut down that Halo RTS mod for command and conquer

LOL STFU NOOB IM SO COOL I CAN SWEAR AND GIVE YOU A 1 STAR. this was like 12345566534 years ago i posted this, some people didnt know about this so i informed them. also it is a shame that this shut down the C&C halo mod, but now ive been playing C&C3. anyway sobernuts, u really must have no life if u go around here on ytmnd and take the time to explain why each and every ytmnd sucks. if it sucks why dont u move onto something good that you enjoy? i dont go on here much anymore, just every now and then
