News: Developer "I think we've got magic in the disc"
A recent Gametap interview with Halo Wars Graeme Devine, lead designer, reveals one key aspect 'Magic'. I doubt he's talking about Master Cheif in some astranged LARP senario, rather the fact that most of the team "spend their lunches playing the game."
"I think we've got magic in the disc. We've worked on the controls, gameplay, and story for this game being very much aware of what has gone before us." boasts Devine, "More than that, I believe we will be huge not just because I believe, but because when we put the controller in your hands, you will believe too."
I'm really excited about a Halo themed RTS, the only other RTS I'm a real fan of is the Command & Conquer series. Hopefully this will live up to the hype it's getting from the Halo gravy train.
