- Halo Wars proved that real-time strategy games could thrive on consoles, delivering an accessible yet deep experience that brought the genre to a wider audience. But despite its success, the RTS revolution it could have sparked never happened. Why didn’t other major franchises like Killzone, Gears of War, or even Star Wars follow suit? In this video, we dive into the legacy of Halo Wars, exploring how it showed the way for RTS games on consoles, why no one followed, and what could have been a golden age for strategy gaming.
🎮 Let’s talk about what went wrong, what could have been, and whether the RTS genre can still make a comeback!

The RTS Revolution That Never Happened - Halo Wars’ Lost Legacy
Halo Wars Showed the Way - Why Did No One Follow?
Anyone coming at me talking about Gears Tactics will get blocked from the channel.....🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Idk how it work but some form of horror RTS would be super interesting
I could not agree more mate, that would be amazing. Gears and Halo both started out with huge horror elements and then moved away from it, Gears E-Day that is next in line looks to be heading back in that direction, so never say never. You could have the giant monsters breach out of the ground, troops frozen from fears, units switch sides from mind control. The possibilities are endless, the problem is, developers are too scared to take a chance. I love that idea though.
I remember being super pumped for this game when I first heard about it...
And then? What happened? I need to know more! 🤣 Did you love it or hate it?
A full-scale RTS Gears of War would be awesome. Great video 😀
I would give my left leg mate.
@@HoundlanderGaming Back for another watch 😀
@GUNNEDDOWNJJ thanks mate 🫶
Awesome video as always Hound!
Thank you!
@@HoundlanderGaming🍿🍿

I love RTS games. Would love to see a decent RTS game of Gears of War
Me too buddy! I would literally kill for one 🤣
W video man! I think at the time the open world games were getting popular is the main reason. Maybe online multiplayer was getting very accessible too. But hard to tell.
Yeah possibly bro, it's just a shame that developers follow the trends and neglect genres. They aren't happy making 80m profit, they want 400m!
@ it’s all about money man. When I was a kid command and conquer was the main game I played. Lol
It was for most of us man, the fact it would be hard to fill with loot boxes and skins I'm sure is a problem for developers 🤣🤣
@ omg lol skins! You can make your team blue now instead of red lolol honestly would be kinda funny to see.
You would have to give them 10 out of 10 for ball size to try that 🤣🤣
Great video mate. Never played this. Might need to give it a look if I can find it 😊
Fantastic game mate! 🫶
An RTS souls-likes would be cool.
I actually don't think that would be very hard to pull off, obviously the boss battles would have to be different, but the atmosphere and universe would be amazing. Great idea! Thanks for watching!
@HoundlanderGaming Of course. Now that I think about it, Diablo and Grim Dawn have it down at least a little bit, even though they aren't souls-likes, so not really much to expand on but yeah, boss battles would be the biggest adjustment.
yeah you are right, Diablo i think is very close. Some RTS games now are allowing you to switch to third person and take control of one unit, it could allow you to do that for boss battles. Would be very cool!
Loved the 1st Halo Wars, shame no one else followed suit
i actually think the second one is much better, most either havent played it or dont want to.
@@HoundlanderGaming TBF I never got round to playign the 2nd one, was always on my list just never got round to it
@supercrazyaddz_ it's fantastic mate, I would seriously get to it soon if I were you.
@@HoundlanderGaming Noted! Will check to see how much it is next time im on
@@supercrazyaddz_ I got the complete edition for £12/13 on cd keys think the base game is on game pass though.
Spittin facts right here man. Highly underrated.
For sure mate! 🤘
Man halo wars was so good. Really awesome
Great game!
Let’s win that game also great content 😂
Thank you kind sir!
always been curious about the RTS in Halo - heard good things
The games are fantastic mate!
Really good video 🔥
Thank you!
this was A Really good video about this game 👍
Thank you
I think resistant would be an interesting RTS spinoff of the original game
Yes! I was going to mention resistance but I felt it would be a bit disingenuous as I haven't actually played it.
@ I think it would be interesting if they did I don’t remember much of resistance when I did play it but whenever I do think about I feel no bad feeling yanno
@@ProthetOriginals i hope we start to see some more RTS games like Halo Wars, even movies or TV could do it. World War Z, Underworld, Game of Thrones, Vikings! Endless possibilities.
great video Hound ☺☺
Thank you mate 🫶
Back for some more mate 😊
Thank you mate!
@HoundlanderGaming no worries at all mate
Nice video
Thank you Pawel!
Hi dude good game and big like
Thank you
Awesome!!! 👏
Thanks Nick!
Let’s see what this all about then 🎉
i think you will enjoy this one!
@ I would love an rts set in the alien franchise, I’ve tried a couple Star Wars rts but they weren’t the best.
@@DynamightHarry There is! Alien Vs Predator: Extinction! it was console only, PS2 i believe. It was one of my all time great RTS games. Emulate it, you wont be disappointed.
@ Holy hell I didn’t even know one existed time to boot up my emulator then.
Honestly it's worth it mate. How's it's never been ported to PC is beyond me. Huge cult following.
:P Good shit Hound!
Thank you buddy!
@HoundlanderGaming ❤️❤️
Bang bang boom 🎉

🔥🔥🔥🔥
🤘🤘
👀🍿
Thanks bro
i think call of duty would be cool, but it would probably be similar to C&C what do you think?
I think it could work, having heroes as well like Price, Ghost etc Makarov, shepherd for the bad guys. There was rumours a couple of years ago that one was in the works, it went quiet.
Have you heard of Gears Tactics?
🤣🤣🤣🤣
🌶🌶🌶

Haloooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!
I love me some Halo lad!
Hard to choose why not both. why limit to the one choice. Both have a quality all heir own. @'Ur6 My Dude
More variety is definitely something we need! Good to see you around Bob, hope you are doing well brother 🔥
