Halo Wars News Update

This month's Halo Wars news update kinda renewed my decaying hopes on Ensemble's real time strategy game. For one, the Ensemble guys stated that Halo Wars might be present at E3, although they also made some emphasis on E3's "closed doors, just press and buyers" policy. Textually: " So although we’re going to be showing Halo Wars there, you’re likely going to have to live vicariously through second hand accounts from members of the press".

They also disclosed information on the so-called Cyclops. Turns out it's just a version of Starcraft's Terran SCVs resource gathereres, instead of a Human counterpart to the Covenant's "try-to-kill-me!" Scarab tank. Again, textually: "These mechanical suits house a man who operates it, and they would normally be put to work moving around supplies, ammunition, or doing the heavy lifting on construction projects". And I was already planning to do some grunt splattering!

Anyway, I certainly hope that from this point on, information regarding Halo Wars makes more emphasis on Units, weapons, graphics, etc, to turn the heat up, you know?
