It’s back, the regular Eurogamer feature that gets the worlds fanboys frothing at the mouth. So the big question again is can the PS3 finally get a round win over the Xbox 360? Remember all the indisputable technical details can be found through the link at the bottom but if you are going to blame Eurogamers for your console of …

Gamerlobby in conjunction with TheLair and Mayhem are hosting our very own Halo Wars launch party on the 28th of February. Microsoft has kindly agreed to send over some consoles and merchandise to the party so if you are still on the fence about Halo Wars this is possibly the cheapest way to find out if you want it or …

by Brett Cocking I have never really liked RTS games, mostly because I couldn’t get the hang of the speed at which I was required to play in order to be competitive. This worried me when I got hold of Endwar, if they couldn’t find a way to slow the game down while keeping to the essence of an RTS, …

Ok, I don't really know how to explain this one, but it's pretty awesome. The guy in this video has actually trained his parrots to play EndWar by teaching them the commands of the game. While he still needs to give them instructions on what to do, the mere fact that the game still has no problem recognising their commands is pretty amazing to say the least. It looks like the developers of EndWar have really done a great job with the system and as we all know, if they didn't, this entire game would be worth nothing.

Vinh-Dieu Lam, a programmer on the console RTS Tom Clancy’s EndWar has said “the convergence between the franchises is only going to get more seamless, with what happens in one game perhaps affecting what happens in another”. Last Updated: October 20, 2008

You may remember that just yesterday, we reported that the EndWar demo was not going to be coming to the PS3. The reason? We still aren't sure but this is really getting my interest because I want to know why. Are we looking at a scenario where companies are actually starting to get paid to keep their demo's exclusive? Maybe what is happening is just a reaction from Ubisoft against all of the noise being made because of the exclusive demo. I am going to keep my eye on this one.

Yet another upcoming title will not be getting a demo for the Playstation 3 and one has to wonder what in the hell is going on. The Xbox 360 demo went up yesterday on Xbox Live and was accompanied by the official statement from Ubisoft that says the following: "The demo, exclusively available for Xbox 360, is free and offered for download on Xbox Live Marketplace for Xbox 360," Is this just a nice way of saying that they are a little behind with the PS3 version or is the demo actually being made exclusive on purpose? We are starting to see more and more of this happen and if you ask me, the publishers are just shooting themselves in the foot by not letting both sides try before they buy. That is of course, unless Microsoft is handing out wads of cash for this as well. It's just silly in my opinion and companies need to start making sure that they have demos available for both consoles and not only one.

Tom Clancy's EndWar is the first game that is offering the ability to control your armies with the use of voice command. While I have been let down in the past with voice command features, EndWar looks like it's actually going to pull it off. This video gives us a good idea of how the voice command system works and how the interface functions. The idea of controlling armies that have Ghost Recon and Rainbow Six squads in them is already enough to get me to sit up and pay attention but add a flawless voice command system and we may have the future of console RTS gaming staring us right in the face.
