Microsoft releases four new images of Halo Wars. It looks great, and from what we've already seen of the game back at last E3, it seems like the game is on track to honour its prestigious license. We didn't expect any less from Ensemble Studios, to be honest.

I hope SMH stands for "just kidding."

You do realize that most of what's in pic 4 is caught right in the middle of a motion blur moment. And that's a bunch of motion blue in different areas all depending on the different forces acting...it's pretty well done tbh.

And the ring in the backround, come on man, that's classic Halo!

As true as that is, GR3092, I'm gonna have to just trust Ensemble Studios to do their thing. They didn't let me down in the AoE franchise and even their spin off Age of Mythology wasn't that bad (albeit worse).

Needless to say, these guys know what is to be expected in an RTS and I really want this game to turn out alright. I'm a big fan of the Halo universe, Joe Staten and his writing team did an excellent job. If this game can bring to life some of the pre-Halo drama that started the whole franchise, then I'm all for it.

As a side note, I'm reading Halo: Contact Harvest at the moment and if that book is any resemblance to the battles that will be in this game...oh baby! <3
