Halo Wars may be in a completely different and unrelated genre from its source material -- as different as Mario Tennis is from Super Mario Bros. But with all these shared bits and pieces, one might not even notice too much ... or care. "We talked to Bungie a lot about the gameplay," says Pottinger. "What makes Halo as a game for them? It was important for us to capture the Halo feel, while still being Halo in a different way."

This preview was based on an unfinished build of the game seen at Microsoft's Halo Wars press event.
