Another RTS for 360.

If you played on PC leave some thoughts, if you haven't played will you pick up or wait for reviews? Personally I love RTS games and hope they fleshed out some issues in the PC version and bring a great RTS over.

I love RTSes on PC but haven't found a game that brings the same experience

I'll take a look at this but i'm really looking forward to EndWar since its an RTS MADE for the console, not just a port

no clue yet, but I love RTS games. So maybe the afternoon crowd has a pc gamer who played it and can let us know.

Also Endwar is out this year and so is SUPREME COMMANDER...so lots of RTS love coming.

Lets not forget Civ 4 is getting a version on 360 which makes me very very happy.

Word on the grapevine ( ie 1UP Yours from a couple of weeks ago) is that this is the first RTS to get it right on the 360?

This game is a huge sleeper hit, it deserves way more attention than its currently getting. Hopefully the 360 version(which i've heard is THE BEST rts port to consoles -ever-) will give it the status it needs. I was looking at the 360 version and the controls look really easy. It has to be since the game is cross platform.

I am sure it will get a higher review than the PC version.

It's pretty cool. The controls are very good, and I like them more than CnC3's controls. My only gripe is if you fail a mission, you start from the beginning....i mean way beginning.....like step one.

So be careful!

I can't wait for the game. I myself can't afford a great gaming computer and love RTS games. So i'm very excited about this game and can't wait to play it. I've played console RTS games it's weird at first but easy after a few days on the RTS console games i've played.

The game is far from slow paced and extrememly fun to play. There are many different strategies that you can use and the 3 fractions are competely different. I have been playing as Novus for a while then i will move over to Hierarchy the Giant walkers. This is currently one of the best games I have played in a while.

I played the PC version online. I would give it a 10 for online which is basically the best part of the game. The campaign is pretty good also. You can team up with a buddy and battle the computer in a skirmish match or battle 2 other players.

game is great, and the factions are refreshing. no humans, makes an interesting concept. If you like RTS you will love it. It's definately worth a look if you are new to the genre or considiering a purchase to pass time between now and GTA 4

How is novus imbalanced? I never saw anything about scaling down novus. I think all 3 fractions are well balanced.

You are talking about a patch that is already applied. The 360 already has these patches. Can't say I noticed any of them.

I just read what patch 2 did and I still don't know what you are talking about. http://www.petroglyphgames.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=9024&st=0
