Product Description

Let the battle for supremacy begin as gamers can play the first-ever board game based on the grim, gritty, and battle-ravaged world of Microsoft and Bungie's best-selling entertainment property - Halo! Halo: The Interactive Strategy Game captures the edge-of-your-seat action and storyline of the video game as it allows players to control UNSC Marine and Covenant forces in strategic battles for power. Featuring the same premise and characters as the video game - including Master Chief, A.I., and The Covenant - Halo: The Interactive Strategy Game offers a modular board that can be re-configured to create a virtually limitless game play experience, complete with highly detailed, sculpted character pieces. In recreating the video game's signature three-dimensional graphic design, the game pulls fan-favorite elements from Halo 1, 2, and 3 along with music from the video game's award-winning soundtrack and features unseen exclusive DVD content to enhance game play.

Great game even if it looks like a cash-in, Highly Recommended!

Reviewer: Alex Morales,

It may seem like just a cash-in on a popular franchise but it is still a great board game. The board can be set-up in many different ways,along with different rules and modes to keep things fresh every time you play. Combat is extremely fun and balanced on both sides the way the game is set up is so that 2 players control thier own squad and try to eliminate each other or complete objectives. the rules seem complex in the beginning but if you actually read them they make sense. Almost anybody can pick up this board game with a friend and play and I was able to change the rules to the point where 4 people could join in and have an equal chance at playing, without much effort. The DVD isn't necessary but it is a great way to change things up which is still nice. The voice-overs are ok even if they dont capture the personality of your favorite characters, and it uses in-game footage which is good too.

If you love strategy board games and want something unique and fresh than this game is most definitely for you even if you have never heard of or played halo. If your a halo fan and enjoy a occasional board game than i highly recommend it.

Great Game!!! Better than Heroscape

What I find great about this game is the numerous combination's of game play, great strategy, cool pieces to create maps, I can play with friends, bottom line - its FUN!!! What's not so great is that it is in Limited Stock! I had to wait to get it from Amazon because it is already sold out at some stores!

I am a Halo Fanatic and when I read about it online I thought geez... what next from Halo -- but of course I had to have it. Boy was I was surprised! This is a fantastic game! I bought about a week ago and me an my friends can't stop playing (Shout to Rich and Adrian). Lots of interchangeable 'lego' like pieces to create different maps, numerous combination of game play, nice alternative to mix things up a bit. My friend bought a copy yesterday (after searching around for it) and we were able to put the two games together and make one HUGE game board - awesome. We want to try three games together. When my buddy went to get the game at another store it was the last one they had. This one will sell out fast! Get it -- you won't be disappointed"

Reviewer: Philip D. Phan Ba,

this game is awesome. I can create my own campaign just like Dungeons and Dragons. they only down fall there are no flood character but the pieces are as big as a heroclix figure which means you can use heroclix figure to play as for additionally character card with Heroclix you'll have to make your own. Anyways. this product is fun, mind tactical thinking and relaxes your from the actual Halo xbox games. a must get for people who loves table tops tactical games.

This board game is fun for all halo fans even if you have not played halo it is worth the buy. The game instructions give you some famous halo maps to play or you can create your own levels for limitless gameplay. A MUST HAVE FOR ALL HALO FANS!

My son absolutely loves playing this game! His friends think it is the coolest thing as well. I love seeing the kids finally turning off the XBOX and TV and sitting at the dining room table playing board games. This game brings back hope that board games could make a come back!
