Master Chief
Now that Halo Wars has released, I’m sure all you Limited Edition owners have thrown the game aside to try out Mythic Map pack. I’m just kidding, hopefully; as I sincerely hope you didn’t pay all that extra money just to play Mythic.
If you did pay all that money for Mythic then hopefully your map pack has actually loaded. Bungie has apparently been receiving case of player’s maps not loading. Bungie surprised me here, only really giving the solution that you should call Microsoft for support.
One problem that boggles my mind is that apparently people have been complaining that they thought the Mythic map pack came with the standard edition. I just don’t understand how you could know about the map pack, and now know it only comes with the limited edition. Bungie has been broadcasting the news since November, so I find it hard to believe that interested parties didn’t know about it.
For those who’ve picked up the limited edition of Halo Wars, how is the map pack playing out so far? Is Foundry as epic as we’ve been hearing? Are you already forging away as I’m typing this?

Master Chief
For those who’ve been keeping up with the history of Halo Wars, knows it’s quite interesting. The latest bit of news being announced for the Halo RTS is questionable to say the least.
The good news is that Halo Wars finally has a solid release date. For those who’ve been long waiting, March 3, 2009 will be the date you’ll be able to pick up Halo Wars. The puzzling part of the news, is that the US will be the last region to get the game. Europe will be getting Halo Wars, February 26th. With Japan receiving the game February 27th.
I know that the economy is down in the US, but come on. It’s pretty obvious at this point that Halo’s popularity shines brightest in the states. For Microsoft to release the game in other regions first really doesn’t make a whole lot of sense to me.
For those who pre-order Halo Wars, you’ll get a cool in-game item. The exclusive item is a Warthog with flame decals plastered on the side. Those who wish to fork over an extra twenty bucks for the Limited Collector’s Edition will get some great additions. You’ll get an in-game Covenant Wraith with ‘Honor Guard’ decoration. A graphic novel, and early access to the Mythic Map Pack will also be included with the Limite Collector’s Edition.
