What's it about? Halo’s attempt at a strategy game sees you sending squads of inch-high Warthogs up against Covenant Elites. The quality visuals mostly keep the moody Halo atmosphere, but the controls are too awkward (see Tom Clancy’s voice-controlled EndWar for a recent better example). Worse, many missions are straight from the bog-standard strategy playlist. Competent, but the Halo brand deserves better.
