it definatly can compete with End War....and World in conflict (which is actually looking a bit better than End War).

Plus End War doesnt come till 09

360 is official home to RTS’s. I actually like it better than on PC. Nice and comfortable RTS action on my bed.

yes that is true.

The 360 has every single Console RTS (which are actually turning out to be pretty good on the 360). The only other console with an RTS is the PS3 and it’s game is End War which is also on the 360 and is actually more improved on the 360 (voice commands).

So here are the consoel RTS’s for the 360 so far...


Lord of the Rings The Battle for Middle Earth 2 (Avereage Rating: 80.2%/ PC Version Ranking: 83.7%)

Command and Conquer 3 (Avereage Rating: 80.7%/ PC Version Ranking 85.8%)

World in Conflict (Not Yet Released/ Pc version Ranking: 89.2%)

Supreme Commander (Not Yet Released/ PC Version ranking: 87.2%)

Universe at War (Not Yet Released/ PC Version Ranking: 77.5%)

Command and Conquer 3 Kane’s Wrath (Not Yet Released)

Tom Clancy’s End War (Not Yet Released)

Halo Wars (Not Yet Released)[/b]



All of those RTS’s are only on 360 and PC (with the exception of End War). it is quite obvious...the 360 is the king for console RTS’s.


If your an RTS player and you want a next gen console just for RTS’s...you should get the 360.

yes it does unless u wanna verse the AI. If u wanna verse and actual person than it has to be on XBL. Well it ahs atleast for the current 2 games on 360 (LOTR: BFME2, C&C3).
