It's been a rough week for the folks at Ensemble Studios. Following layoff rumors, Microsoft announced that after "Halo Wars" ships on the Xbox 360, the house that "Age of Empires" built will be no more.
But in the meantime, "Halo Wars" still needs to be finished. It's not supposed to arrive until early 2009, and the game's lead writer, Graeme Devine, has pledged his support to continue working on the game.
"We will finish 'Halo Wars' and it continues to be a kick ass game," said Devine to MTV Multiplayer in an e-mail last night. "The reaction at PAX was something else to see, it was the first time I'd seen a fan response to the game, so that absolutely rocked."
Despite Microsoft's intentions to take Ensemble Studios off the map once "Halo Wars" ships, does a promise to "kick ass" make you feel better?
