The much anticipated RTS that pits the UNSC forces against the invading Covenant armada should be out early 2009. Just like in Anchorman, this is going to be a bilingual bloodbath. The Flood are confirmed to be in the game. Not confirmed yet if they are 100% playable or just a presence, but I’m sure they will have more of a role than a NPC. Can’t wait for a playable demo of this.
Playing as the Flood would be awesome. You’d be able to infect dead enemies and increase your numbers without mining/creating stuff at your base
Halo Wars sounds even better now, I wonder how they’ll input RTS with the 360 controller. We’ll see how that goes, hopefully this comes out really good, it is their last project before closing the studio.
I was reading about halo wars on http://www.halopedia.com and it states that developers said the Flood will not be playable. The Forerunners were believed to be playable also but turned out to be an April’s Fool Joke.
