Default Did anyone else notice this blatant and hilarious typo?

So, the advertising campaign for Halo Wars was something like: "Command an Army. Defeat the Covenant." Right? You know, because you command a human army and try to defeat the Covenant? The bad guys?

So... why on the back of the box does it simply say "Command the Covenant?" What does that mean? It then goes on to describe the nature of the plot. But... command the Covenant? Not in the campaign you don't... Why would you command the bad guys?

That would be like if for Halo ODST: It said "Finish the Drop", instead of "Prepare to Drop" and "Finish the Fight."

I found this hilarious. I think someone got fired.

Fail thread.




You can command both the humans and the covenant. So why would it not say that? They get more buyers.

If a game advertises stuff on the box they have to be true they cant false advertise otherwise they'd get fined.

It wasn't a typo. They put that because you can play as the Covenant in multiplayer. Fail.
