RUSE Demo
by coruscant on Comments
I played the RUSE demo on PS3 the other day and I'm pleased to say that it did not disappoint. It's not an EndWar. It's well thought-out, deep and so addictive. The only gripe I had was that I found any other difficulty than 'beginner strategist' fairly unforgiving. I suppose it's realistic in that way. I especially like how the map is set out as a strategy map table like a real general would use back then. I like how you can stay zoomed in and see the 'real' view, but also zoom out to see the old-fashioned block-type view where your units are just little bricks on the board. The ruses really stand out too, and seemed to have been pretty well thought-out and pretty realistic. I especially like how you can use dummy units to fool your enemy, just like the Allies did on the run up to D-Day (although I couldn't use the ruse myself in the demo, the enemy did use it). I'm looking forward to seeing how well the Move controller will be integrated into the game.
