What we learned about video games is if you wait to get it right gamers buy the game. (And the franchise unless you screw up.) We know what we're doing - we gamers, and so do our incredible game makers. Not certain, but I think gaming skipped the recession because of this strong relationship between game players and game makers.

Halo Wars i the best real-time strategy game I've ever played. It's 2014, and as I type this, I'm playing it right now. I also played Halo Wars with one of the designers before any of us knew he was a Halo Wars designer. His words to us were "we really tried to get the balance right." They nailed it. I love this game. Do another.
