More on this gameWhile rumours over the past few days have suggested that Halo Wars will be coming to PC, Microsoft has flatly denied the hear-say about the hotly anticipated RTS game.
Speaking to IGN, a Microsoft spokesperson said, "Halo Wars is being developed from the bottom up for the Xbox 360 and its control scheme to ensure that we deliver a groundbreaking console RTS experience. Given that, we have no plans to develop Halo Wars for Windows Vista at this time."
The previous rumours had suggested that this PC version of Halo Wars would allow for cross-platform multiplayer games between PC and Xbox 360 owners.
While the statement seems to blow these rumours out of the water, it seems a little strange that Microsoft is choosing to close the door on the large RTS market for PC.

Light please dont leave, this whole thing with Krattus is a massive miss understanding. The whole thing about Spartan happend a long time ago and i diddnt realise so i had a go at Krattus and i dont think he ment anything bad from that list. Then he posted the list again and i think Spartan thought he was having anouther go at him. And another thing dont befriend YRC, remember how Death Woman and him made Lady V's life a living hell? And he's been attcking Krattus on Wookieepedia by deleating all his stuff. Just think about this before u leave cuz its all a massive miss understanding.
