Halo Wars: Gameplay Demonstration video |

In this video, we get a sneak peek at the game's lush and sharp visuals, as well as some pretty neat gameplay factors that distinguish it from other RTS titles. For example, the all-important window where you select what buildings or units to build actually takes up the entire screen. While this is a good change, it also obstructs your view of the battlefield, which could prove deadly during heated matches.
Another change is the way you'll be selecting troops on screen - and that's by "painting" the ones you want to select with an on-field cursor, rather than the oldie-but-goodie box-dragging technique. This one can also prove problematic during gameplay, as you'll have to be very accurate with moving the indicator around. However, it's to note that it works pretty well here, with the player easily sending two forces against the Covenant horde outside his base.
Will Bungie Studios' Halo Wars match up to the RTS classics we all know and love? Time will only tell. Enjoy the video!

Which is a shame as Myth (a real bungie game) was one of the best ever RTS games, I would have liked Bungie to give Halo the Myth treatment.
