Halo Wars looks like "My First RTS" much like Halo was "My First FPS".

Maybe that's exactly the effect they were hoping for. Hmmm.

Meh, you're probably right. I'm sure Ensemble made the game with that in mind.
For my money, I'm glad they did. Seriously, if I enjoy playing HW enough I'll be more likely to try out other console RTSs.
So, tonight I'm going to go to Gamestop's midnight launch and count up how many people are there. Then on Thursday and next Tuesday, I will return to see how many used copies there are. This should be fun.
I didn't know they had a midnight launch. If there's more than 10 people there I'd be surprised.
My thoughts are that most people that buy HW will be those that are have played and enjoyed the demo already and are likely to be new to the console RTS genre so they figured they'd start with this game (like myself).
