It's not Halo, it's Halo Wars.

It's a RTS.

Screw that, I'd rather play a FPS on a console any day of the week.

With how well the RTS's are being made on the consoles now, I prefer them there also. Lord of the Rings Battle for Middle Earth 2 is fantastic on the 360, controls very nicely.

As for RPG's, I guess it would depend on the type. Oblivion on the 360 owns.

I would rather play RPG's on console. but sadly good 360 RPG's are few and far between. I heard there was a new Fable in the works no?

I downloaded that LotR demo and it did play pretty well. PC or console, I think this is how ALL RTS games should be...

Touchscreen on an RTC would be so badass.

I am the very small minority that doesn't find the fun in Halo. I played 2 for hours online and just couldn't get the fun part of it. Maybe I am just so brainwashed by Counter-Strike.

But eh. I'm pretty much good with the games I got...

NCAA Football 07
Madden 07
NBA2K7

I'll pick up NHL2K7 when the price drops.

But those three games are all I need, really. I was going to get PS3, but now I don't really want it, and I was on the fence about the Wii, and after getting a DS I really want a Wii. Nintendo just makes solid games that are fun. So I think I'll stick with the 360, and get the Wii in November.
