The people over at Microsoft sure hope so!

GameStop is hosting pre-launch Halo Wars tournaments at about 1,000 locations. The winner of the tournament will receive a copy of Halo Wars Limited Collector's Edition and a t-shirt. 

Halo Wars is a strategy game for Xbox 360, allowing players to control large armies and direct them in warfare.

I love Halo 3. And I love Xbox (aside from the few instances of red lights and rings of death and such). But I have no interest in this game. To me, it sounds like Milton Bradley's Risk, but with Halo Spartans and Elites. 

Anyway, if you have interest in being in one of these tournaments and winning the collector's edition of Halo Wars rather than paying the $80 for it, contact your local GameStop. Fun fun fun!
