Herrro........

MANDATORY MOUSE/KEYBOARD OR I WILL NOT PURCHASE. There's no excuse for this nowdays, as all consoles have USB. RTS's are played with keyboard/mouse, not controller. But then again, I guess the main reason this is not the case on consoles is that EA is responsible for most of them. Don't even get me started on EA....

Anyway, it boggles my mind why there are so many RTSs on the Crapbox and not the PS3. The PS3 is the ideal for RTSs, having six processors.

From an insider source, I have heard that StarCraft 2 will be coming to consoles, however Blizzard may not be the one developing the ports.

Only if the PS3 version can connect with PC buddies on bnet... which I assume it should be able to.. considering it is already cross platform mac/pc doing it.

AI is something that usually gets a direct and 'easy' benefit from symmetric processing. So in theory, it means they should be able to create a challenge more readily without cheating.

However, that said, for good players, they'll always need a cheater.
