It's the question TeamXbox always have when a PC-only real-time strategy game is announced for the Xbox 360: how will it control. By nature, RTS's are meant to be played with a mouse and keyboard, and don't naturally translate as well as say first person shooters do to the handheld controllers... Usually, the problem arises from a need to over-simplify, like the "one button to rule them all" mentality of The Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle Earth II. But if you've got the stones for it, some games attempt to do it all with eight buttons and a couple of sticks, like Universe at War: Earth Assault from Sega and developer Petroglyph.
Steam currently has an amazing deal, get 75% off Universe at War: Earth Assault
But the savings are unbeatable. Just Cause2, Witcher 2, Plants Vs Zombies, Torchlight, Splinter Cell, blah, blah, blah. .. so many games I've purchased recently. It is almost like needing a fix, I am addicted to buying these discounted games! The only problem is that steam lists this game for $19.99 not $15.00
And even though I like Steam's crazy deals most of the time, you still have to sanity check Amazon.com, because they have this game for $7.23 @ the moment.

Right, like many of you (I’m sure), I can’t wait for the new Aliens Vs Predator game. I’ve really enjoyed the series and hope this new title won’t disappoint! So I’ve pre-ordered it via Steam out of laziness and habit. For some reason, they’re giving away some RTS I’ve never really paid any attention to with it. Universe at War: Earth assault. Um, well that’s nice.
