End War

[Swither]

Just watched the 2 trailers for the new strat game Tom Clancy's End War for 360 out in November.

Looks amazing due to using the 360 head-set and voice commands to control your units.

On my christmas list

'Unit 2 attack Hostile 3' ....gotta love the voice command structure

 

[Zed]

yup. i think it will make for an interesting RTS.

Im wondering if i can yell "Blackhawk down" ;-)

Who is doing it? Ubisoft? If so, they are usually pretty good and getting it rightz0r.

I had a dabble with the demo last night.
It is good fun speaking your orders, but I did have trouble figuring out which unit was which or where the full battlefield view was. Saying that I only did the first part of the mission and the units response was very good.

I'm not a fan of RTS as I am a bit slow to respond to whats going on, but with this voice command gimmick I could be tempted to play this one.

This looks pretty good actually *runs off to pull down demo* just what I have been needing lately Anyone know of any other 'modern' shooters of the 360? (Apart from COD4 ... oh wait).

Timeshift is alright. Not great but the stopping time malarkey is quite fun.

Crackdown is pretty ace (got into it now). Plus GOW2 is out in 3 weeks (drool).

Obvious other ones are GR2 and R6 Vegas.

The demo is quiet good but the bloody camera is annoying me it seems to be stuck on a unit and won't go into free look, any tips??
