New Halo Wars Trailer Examines Spartans
Though the final game from the now-closed Ensemble Studios won't arrive until March 3, players will be able to get an early glimpse via a downloadable demo this Thursday.

Despite all the hype surrounding this game, I won't have any interest at all unless it gets a PC port, or unless I can get Keyboard and Mouse use. RTS games just don't feel right at all on the console.
Maybe the demo will change my mind. PC-RTS guys, your thoughts?-
Well that's the point. This "is" supposed to be a console RTS. This won't see the light of day on the PC. Because it would have to get re-worked entirely. I feel every genre isn't locked to a specific platform regardless how some may feel about what plays better in their hands.
There are plenty of other games that can fill that void if one doesn't make it to the other side. -
I've played the demo a fair bit now and can say that overall this game works well on the console. I'm a PC gamer first and foremost, and until now scoffed at the idea of doing a strategy game on a gamepad, but the implementation here is pretty good.
Yes, you are a little bit more limited on what you can do because of the controller. But instead of trying to cram a PC game onto a gamepad they designed the game around it. It works well.
