Exactly. I'm not buying a 360. To top it off, RTS games are usually hard to control on a console as opposed to a PC. Plus this is free. And here now. To be honest, I think either M$ had that trailer made in case it did ever want to make an RTS game for Halo OR they threw it together in a week. Worst of all, I think M$ might;ve stolen the idea since the Halogen project was going on for three years.

Yah. I read about it a couple days ago and first thought was "Woo" second thought wass "Boo." I like me some mouse for my mouse oriented gameplay.

Hmmm.... could there be a mouse for XBox? I can see myself sitting on the couch, long cord stretched across the room, mousepad on my lap....
