Just wondering what the best RTS is for the 360.  I know what the reviews say and I know End War is coming out soon, but I was looking to get something now.  So I guess the question is what do Goozex members think?

there was warhammer battle march that just came out for it but i got tired of it pretty quickly. it was a pain if you lost your heros or something made you quit during a mission because you have to redo the mission and purchases all over again.

also for some reason the ai in the game was dumb and when i targeted a cannon on a hill they ran back to the spawn and stood there. then i tried targeting it again and they ran to the bridge and ran back to the spawn like 4 times and got killed.

it wasn't that bad, also i was only doing the empire campaign which there is 3. plus there is online mulitplayer and i think there was instant action.

There have been things like Supreme Commander and C&C 3 ... but in general anything ported from the PC is going to be a problem since you are dealing with the methods they used to remap hundreds of controls to a dozen ... and it never goes well.  I think this is where Halo Wars, designed for the console from the start, has an excellent chance of being really good.

for this reason im wary of playing any RTS on a console, they just suffer so much compared to PC counterparts; for example, if Warcraft 3 got ported to console, i wouldn'y touch that with a 10 foot pole and i love that game

Civilization Revolution was decent. It is a simple version of the PC Civ games but was fun for a while on the 360.

Isn't Civ Revolution turn-based?

Tom Clancy's END WAR, I have been playing the beta, and the game is not bad at all.
