This review is from: Halo Wars: Prima Official Game Guide (Prima Official Game Guides) (Paperback) If you play Halo Wars you already know how intuitive and easy the controller setup is for this fast paced game is.

All in all a good guide to get if you want to add some bite to your game. Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

The guide is a fun read if you are into the Halo universe even though Halo Wars isn't like any of the other Halo games. |
