@Gaara42, I do believe that Ensemble Studios has the ability to make a good RTS consoles game, but it all depends on whether they are able to make the gameplay and controls work well on the 360. Ensemble Studios has a proven track record, but only on the PC - this does help with some facets of making any RTS game. I believe sales could take a hit if this title gets ported to the PC because that is the platform of choice for most RTS fans because the controls work the best thus far.
@ivanassen, Microsoft is investing in trying to create a good RTS game for the 360 (with using one of their larger, well-known RTS studios to do so), but whether this investment will produce a game with solid controls and gameplay is yet to be seen.
