I hope so, too. I'd recommend that you give AoE3 a go if you're on the fence about it. It does seem to be the cool thing to do to bag on it, but I've sunk countless hours into it and its two expansions, and have enjoyed every minute.
Stupid move by Microsoft. Ensemble was a highly profitable developer that always had hits game and sold 2 millions units every year. Why didn't they close Rare isntead? Rare is nowhere near as profitable or as good as Ensemble Studios.

RTS not en vogue?! RTS are the most profitable games on PC except MMORPGs. RTS games development are also a bit cheaper, and there are several million-sellers of them every year.
Infact, just like 2007 was the year of FPS - 2009 will be the year of RTS games:
Starcraft 2
Empire: Total War
Demigod
Dawn of War 2
Anno 1404
Majesty 2
Society
Company of Heroes Stand-alone expansion (rumored)
Halo Wars (Xbox 360)
Stormrise (PC/X360/PS3)

thats bungie, Bizarre Creations , some say bioware, now this... M$ already short 1st party studios are even shorter. Mab they can get 3rd party timed exclusives for the rest of the 360s life. then 6 months later the will be on the ps3. O mab they are preparing for something big? I dont under stand why they are doing all this.
w/e tho i still like my xbox and it has good games. but i wonder why M$ is closing down or selling everything?

How have Sony done this? And I don't mean how do you anticipate Sony will do this. I mean what titles that have already released have shown that Sony's first party is having a quantifiable effect on saving the PS3?

There is no need to "save" the ps3 as it has been kicking 360s ass for a year almost now... Your a crazy blind fanboy and Sonys 1st party titles are nuthin short of awesome.

You actually believe anyone of the million sellers (with the possible exception of the GT5 demo in Europe) has ANY real effect on console sales?
As for the last part? Your post failed dramatically when it reached Folklore.
starcraft - Playing Games = FUN, Talking about Games = SERIOUS

Really? How so? This IS a surprising move, but you aren't surprised... you must be an insider lol.

Wow, your 360 propaganda machine is off the chain today.
Sure, sony's first party offerings may not have moved consoles on their own but they no doubt kept the ps3 relevant during its LAG phase which is why the ps3 is alive and thriving better than ever today. If not for Res 1. Ps3 and motorstorm. Launch ps3 owners would have being in a horrific game drought. R1 and MS1 weren't enough but they served as a band aid during the early months.

I assume you're not refering to Bungie. They operated much as they always had, internally, after the acquistion.
