I guess that I was expecting a little more out of this game, what with all the hype surrounding it. But a strategy game with all the strategy game stripped out of it so it is console friendly just isn't doing it for me. I love the concept, but I need a little bit more depth before I can consider this a good game. Is it fun? Sure. Is it a great game? not yet.
UPDATE: Played the full game at a friends today, and my opinion has not really changed. The game is pretty short, and the simplistic controls still make it really hard for me to get into. I am also feeling like this game is not going to have a lot of "come back and play" power to it. |

| Don't review a game on a demo, its a key rule in my book sir. theres a few factors here that must be pointed out, mircomanagement is almost impossible on a console, so the method of deloyment in this game suits a console awesomely. Im up to the 10th chapters right now and so far its really enjoyable and challenging in some respects depending how good your unit management is. rnrnIn my book its the best console RTS to date, and will probably be the blueprint for other RTS's to follow on a console basis. while the chains on choice and tactics could have been loosened a bit, I think that'll be a relatively easy fix for future developers. |

| I don't mind it being a preview, but next time post that it is a preview. Other than that, not too bad but I think next time add a paragraph or two to flesh it out more, you know? Good start though. |
