Initial details and the game's actual title was recently spilled, though more will come in the latest issue of Games for Windows Magazine, prompting a definite release for the PC action/RTS/RPG player. But some clues point that Demigod may come to consoles, too. More at the full story.

Gas Powered Games' Supreme Commander - Image 1


It looks like Chris Taylor and his army at Gas Powered Games were keeping another secret, and if it weren't for a recently conducted interview, the mind behind THQ's Supreme Commander wouldn't have revealed the ultimate real-time strategy title as another surprise. Though it was revealed that Supreme Commander would probably arrive on Microsoft's Xbox 360 first, there is also hope that Gas Powered Games could deliver it to the Sony PlayStation 3.

"You've almost made me confess that we're working on it... No, actually you have. That's good. I like that. This is a secret I want to share," said Taylor, after expounding on Gas Powered Games' efforts to create a friendly interface for console strategists. What's more is that the previously unveiled Space Siege, a sci-fi rehash of Dungeon Siege (think Rebelmind Games' Space Hack or Silverback Entertainment's Harbinger), will also come with console-friendly versions next year.

Currently, Taylor views the Microsoft Xbox 360 as the current "platform of choice" for pushing PC games out to consoles, because of the least amount of finances involved in development. He still remains hopeful that Sony PlayStation 3 versions will soon follow, due to added developer feedback and a larger install base in the near future.

News on whether the stand-alone expansion Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance will also hit consoles or not, or if a Space Siege Nintendo Wii version will be considered has yet to surface. There are speculations, however, that this move may be the result of THQ trying to cash in on its current published intellectual properties after witnessing a lackluster Q2 financial performance.

Supreme Commander


If you're a gamer who's looking for more new RTS games for your console of choice then you're in luck. Chris Taylor, the guy who brought us Total Annihilation and Dungeon Siege, has expressed an interest in bringing his latest RTS title Supreme Commander to consoles in a recent interview with CVG.

Taylor was asked if he thought Supreme Commander would work well on consoles, to which he responded with a resounding positive. Taylor also said that he and Gas Powered Games were "going to explore that for sure."

No further hints were offered on a possible console port for Supreme Commander, which is shaping up to be one of the biggest RTS releases of 2007. Taylor's responses make the possibility a very likely one though, and RTS fans would surely appreciate getting the chance to play the game on their favorite consoles. We know we will.
