    Tom Clancy's Endwar Review

    Posted on Monday, November 24 2008 @ 14:11:43 CET by Thomas De Maesschalck


    Tom Clancy's Endwar does show that it's possible to do RTS on a console, it's just that Ubisoft has achieved it by stripping out many of the things that make RTSes what they are. That's a bit like taking an F1 car and making it street legal by replacing the engine with one from a Mini Metro. Sure, it's still theoretically an F1 car, but it's not very exciting to drive.

    And that's the real problem with Tom Clancy's Endwar: in making an RTS accessible to console gamers by using speech recognition, Ubisoft has ended up creating a game that has many of the features of an RTS, just without much of the fun and excitement.

    That's not to say that Ubisoft has failed completely – it hasn't, and Tom Clancy's Endwar is still a fun game when judged on its own merits – it's just that the developer has fallen short of making the definitive console RTS.
