This a game coming out for the 360, that some of the people here might like.
http://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/t/theoutfit/
A unique game for a console. It is a real time strategy game with a touch of 3rd person shooter. Currently there is a multiplayer demo on Live, which people either love or hate. The people that hate it seem to try and force the game into a 3rd person shooter, or believe the graphics are not Next-Gen.
However if you play the game as it is suppose to be played, and understand all what is going on in the game the game play is great and if the graphics were top notch lag would be a major issue.

Yeah...I´ve been eagerly waiting for next Monday since november last year when I first noticed about it.
Did you try the demo yet?...is it good?
The game looks absolutely promising, and for the record I´m not one of those expecting a shooter, I´m looking for a console RTS.

I have played the demo quite a bit. The demo is great, takes a bit to grasp the controls, especially driving, but the game play is great.
I will be picking it up this week.
Gamertag is B1ades. So if your online send me an invite if you would like.

More reviews are starting to come in and are what I would expect them. The game has such a hate or love relationship I expect to see great reviews 9/10, good reviews 8/10 and fair/poor reviews 6/10.
Still planning on picking it up this week. Then I just need to build a team on Xbox Live.

Frantly I never believe Gamespot reviews much.
Here is TeamXbox
http://reviews.teamxbox.com/xbox-360/1135/The-Outfit/p1/
I never expected a great single player game with this type of game. Most RTS games I have played don't have the best single player game since they are used more for training than anything else.
However the multiplayer is a blast.
In the Gamespot review most of the things they say are bad are actually suppose to be that way. They complain the guns hare horrible at aiming and tanks and turents are not very accurate. This makes me believe the player was trying to play the game as a 3 person shooter instead of a RTS.
I rarely ever get into a turent, and once you play you will rarely shoot a ton of players in a match. The reason they made the gun a little inconsistant was to prevent people from sniping the entire game in the corner of the map.
The only knock I would give the game is the vehicles controls are different than what you expect.
However if I were you play the demo quite a bit and figure out if you like the game or not. This game like I said before is a hate or love experience.
