Pros & Cons
Pros
Game is easy to pick up and the gameplay is intuitive. Highly recommended to anyone whether and avid rts player or brand new.
Stands toe to toe with the other halos in my opinion. Multiplayer consists of 1v1, 2v2, and 3v3 for standard play as well as other game types.
Covenant is kind of a throwback to warcraft 3. Each leader gets one special ability that's controlled by the y button. Covenant are also able to build scarabs. Troop transport is used for shuffling units across your visible areas of the map.
Easy enough to play without reading the manual. At high settings the opponent gathers resources exponentially faster than you do.
This game is superb. Incredible game. Great game, good price. Must have for halo fan.
Cons

Shipping
As for the buy here on amazon, well the game arrive much earlier than expected very fast delivery i was very happy with the purchase!
The game came quickly with no problems.
I ordered a pre-owned from game stop, it arrived at the same time as the game i ordered here.
And i can see why if the game got anymore complex the game would have to be shipped with a mouse and keyboard.
Packaging/appearance

Came in like it was supposed to.

The game is flawless, the graphics superb and the bonus of playing as a co-op army against so many different opponents raises i... Read More
Although the tech tree may be simple compared to pc strategy game, what makes it fun and exciting is the human element.
Bought for son who said it wasn't as good as other halo but enjoyed it.
Skirmish:skirmish is a mode where you can play different game modes with different leaders from the unsc and the covenant.
