Microsoft: allow us to repeat ourselves, no Halo Wars on PC

Now that the buzz surrounding Halo 3 has come to pass, fans of the series have been chomping at the bit to have at it with the next mythic adventure in the Halo universe, Halo Wars. Up until this point, we were all led to believe that the RTS game was strictly for the Xbox 360 — then came whispers from gaming site Angry Pixel that this just wasn’t the case.  Quoting an inside source they claim to have at Microsoft:
"Halo Wars, touted as an Xbox 360 exclusive, is also apparently in development for the PC. But that’s not all - apparently the game will also feature cross-platform play, a la UNO and Shadowrun, between gamers on the Microsoft console and their PC counterparts."
We get to the bottom of this — or do we? — after the jump.
