If your strategy games have lacked green helmets and people calling you a f*ggot, then make sure you download the Halo Wars demo before going to work. It's up on Xbox Live right now and demands your attention.
It's a shiny 1.40GB in size and was just posted, so if you want to get in before the rest of America wakes up, now's your chance. You'll be competing with those bastards in Europe though, so be quick about it.
Also, don't forget to let us know what you think of this RTS take on the Halo universe.

Who am I not to join the shambling Halo masses?
MUWHAHAHHA!
I wouldn't bother anyway, it's only Galo: Command & Conker edition. For gays.
Sony FTW!
It feels seedy, but it's fun waiting for this to come out. but it'll have a tough time competing with Onechanbara for my console time.
That is all.
Don't get me wrong, Halo is solid, but maybe too much of this good thing ruined my time with it. Granted I played Halo2 everyday afterschool for 4-6 hours for about 2-3 years. And when Halo 3 came out, beat it the same night it came out, and played almost nonstop for about a week, then stopped. Cold Turkey.
write a blog dude, it'll go down well.
I'll definitely be picking this up and giving it a full go-round in March.
I was pretty curious about this game, how they handle the controls and all that, so a demo would be great to give it a go...
I'll play it in the morning (I'm like 12 hour ahead of America from here) Just finished downloading....started the tutorial and stilll controls funny...wish i had a mouse
