But thanksfully it’s being made for console, instead of a PC ported to console.
That will help more than anything else. RTS games ported from PC to console ALWAYS flop. If they do a good job with the interface and mixing command/control/FPS aspects then I have no doubt the game will at least draw a moderate playerbase. The Halo theme will do more to attract players than anything else they could advertise on.
