EndWar made me realize that i will never like RTS. I though the vocal commands would change something, but i still suck when it's about to control more than two things at a time. So i know i wont get this one.

1.1 - YES! WOOOT!
@ OP, why couldn't you order more than one troop? You can order several from anywhere on the battle field. The voice commands are just a fun option, most people don't use that at all unless they're looking to change it up a bit from the norm.

1.5mill? that's great for a new RTS IP. I'm so glad there was enough support for a sequel. The game is certainly the blue print for RTS controls with a control pad. Sure they can do some refinements but what they did with the controls on the pad was spot on for console gamers.

I'd like to see more variation in the combat units for EW2. They had certain strengths in specs but in actual gameplay it felt like they were all alike. That's about all I can think I want for the sequel and perhaps a more robust story line but they're already working on that I see.

RTS games are great, but EndWar is not a great RTS game.

1.5 million isn't that good for a new IP that they put 20+ million dollars in marketing behind and another 30 in production costs for.

2 - Big trouble in little china.
I couldn't get into the first Endwar, but i will admit, the voice recognition system was the best I had ever used. I hope they find a way to make it work with Natal.

Hmm, Ubi are working on a lot of great games right now. The voice recognition is strange but it seems like some Ubi really want to try out. They've apparently implemented it in COP: The Recruit as well.

A friend of mine convinced me to get EndWar, I found it for $8 and honestly even for $8 I still don't think it was worth it. I couldn't get past the Rock, Paper, Scissors type gameplay.
Gunship beats Tank, Tank beats Transport, Transport beats Gunship.
There just wasn't much enjoyment in it for me.

Never got endwar as it didnt look all that great. It still needs work.

I will get Red alert 3 though. Imo a fun RTS needs to be different and a little wacky to be fun. Endwar seemed to generic and didt have as many options as red alert 3.
