How is the game 'Halo Wars'?

[Toadstool]

I've really wanted to buy it (Xbox 360) but I have not heard anything about it yet. Is it good? Is there no splitscreen?? I got really dissapointed when I looked at the back and saw that there is no splitscreen play.

Anyways, how is the game? Anything I should know before purchasing? Any reason I shouldn't buy it?

First of all Halo wars is not an FPS like Halo 3 so you dont carry a gun and shoot people its an RTS and that means you control your army,resources and base to make a force big enough to defeat your enemy.
Now Halo wars is really fun and it has the best controls on consoles when it comes to real time strategy,Graphics and Sounds are top notch and you wont get bothered by them at all its actually really cool to see a big army attack the covenant and blow them to smithereens.
The cutscenes are awesome and you wont see better in any game nuff said.
I love the game and so the eleven thousand players playing it right now
BUT if you dont like strategy games then dont buy it.

Its really good.. I cant think of any reason not to get it unless you hate strategy games.
