I imagine making the game work with the gamepad means the gameplay will be different?

Does it?

Sure... I can't imagine Age of Empires working on a gamepad without alterations to it's mechanics, specifically movement and unit selection. The game will be built from the ground up to be console friendly, thus it will be different from a PC Exclusive RTS game such as the original Age of Empires titles.

AOK was on PS2 of course, but that was a simple cash grab a couple of years after the original... and it was bad.
