Apparently Halo Wars has an cooperative campaign for 2 people online.  Sounds good.

 Sweet. 

And let me go ahead and say it for everybody, rts games are better on pc. 

They most definitely are better on the pc, just like FPS is. BUT fps games sell really well on consoles so it would be in microsofts best interest to create a larger console RTS market, since they get all the pc ports anyway.

Well considering both PC and 360 are basically Microsoft platforms(especially from a development standpoint), if you make a game for one, you might as well make it for the other, makes the most fiscal sense.

Yep, they have to really work hard with the controls though. I wonder how good the voice command stuff with End-War is?

I haven't seen anything about this game for a while, is it still supposed to come out this fall?

I hope Microsoft shows this off at E3 with an X-mote IR demo. That would be enough to make it a day 1 purchase for me.

As much as people hate the idea of the xmote. It really could be useful for the RTS genre. It still wont come close to mouse and keyboard control but it'll be a large step up from the analogue controller.
