Microsoft is doing the right things... Pc market likes much more this kind of games... Putting Alan Wake on Pc would sent it to death once again... Same for CrackDown 2 or others games... RTS sell very well on Pc and Simulators... "Real" Games let them for Consoles.

'The best-selling'? Ahem, Starcraft here wants to say 'hi'.

Anyway, Games for Windows Live = no buy for me. Wait, no one would have bought it anyway. No try for me then.

Actually Sc1 is supposed to be at 9.5m, Age of empires as a whole series (4 games) is at over 20m.

I dislike the new turn of the series... but then again i think the development studio has been replaced with one that has no skill.

75% of the people developing the game are from Ensemble.

"I'd say about 75% of the team have worked on Age of Empires before," he said. "So it's the core team that you can feel comfortable with and who are well skilled with Age [of Empires]."
