I, for one, am excited for Durango. HaloWars 2 needs to be made for it. Oh, and the PC obviously.
When regarded on its own merits, Halo Wars wasn't a bad game given the limitations of a controller for RTS. But when it comes to strategy, so far making the same game for both PC and consoles means one version has to suffer. In the case of Supreme Commander 1 it was the console version that suffered greatly, in the case of the sequel it was the PC version that suffered. Best to make different RTS's for the different systems, or just stick to one. It's not like with platformers or FPS's which are more or less interchangeable between the two control schemes. And the FOV along with distance from the screen makes even more of a difference with this type of game than with any shooter.

So yeah, if Halo wars 2 is coming to the Xbox 720, then good for them, I'm sure that community will have fun, but bringing it to the PC as well is not the best idea unless a separate game is made. Sid Meier's Civilization has been pretty successful with making separate exclusive games for PC and console, so that strategy could work here.
