    Put very simply, EndWar is a must buy for any console owner that has been waiting for a console war game done right.

    The best RTS on consoles by a long way. EndWar is considerably more than a gimmick. [Christmas 2008, p.78]

    Endwar is a lesson to all, then. You can make a strategy game work on a console; you just have to speed it up, dumb it down, and somehow keep it smart.

    EndWar is a polished, innovative game that does a great job pairing its impressive voice command feature with a focused, fast-paced design.

    As a real-time strategy game, EndWar is an intimate and deeply nuanced experience.

    With its slick voice-command system, depth of strategy and frenetic action, EndWar is one game I'll still be playing after its evaluation. [Dec 2008, p.96]

    Graphics rock: You are able to see every detail of a soldier and if you manage to see an airstrike or an EMP-bomb explosion, the ‘wow-effect’ won’t wear off after the first time.

    This decision by the developers, to focus on action over boredom, will help EndWar interest a more broad type of gamer.

    What's so special about this game? Did it bring anything new to Real Time Strategy -games, but voice-command? Only thing why people bother voting over 4, is because they don't accept the fact that they spent over 60 … Full Review »

    Wow, quite the experience. RTS games alone retain that certain quality of "I am commanding an army, feel my wrath," but with the addition of vocal support, I was blown away. The entertainment is top-tier, providing tens of hours of gameplay either defending, attacking, securing, or just plain destroying objectives in RTS open world map variants. As aforementioned with the addition of vocal support, you may simple utter the command "Unit 1 attack hostile 3," or "Unit 3 secure Alpha," to which the game understands with perfect clarity. Highly recommended to those who wish to expand their gaming horizons.… Full Review »

    Although you quickly realize that there isn't that much variety to the game-play it is incredibly satisfying barking orders to your troops.......when it understands you. It does get a little tedious when you have to repeat a command 5 or 6 times. Overall it is probably better as a rental since there is not enough replay value to keep you coming back.… Full Review »
