    Icon7 Total War not coming to consoles...

    Total War not coming to consoles unless it can “replicate the experience” on PC, says Creative Assembly

    Creative Assembly’s Mark O’Connell has told VG247 the Total War games won’t be coming to consoles unless it absolutely can “replicate the entire experience” that is found for the series for PC.O’Connell, CA’s PR and Online Manager, was talking to us for a feature on the RTS genre in games. He stated if it were to be done, it’d need to be done right with “intuitive controls and interface”.

    Or better yet not being able to play it at all due to CTDs.

    Consoles don't have CTD's AFAIK.
    Just add a mouse and keyboard to the package and I might even buy it.
    Miss me yet?

    There's no way to replicate the Total War experience on console. Mods like EB, XGM, and RTR are a critical part of the experience.

    This

    The mods and the communities creativity is by far one of the greatest appeals too actually buying the games.

    Yeah, if CA did that, we modders would be inconsolable

    What's about that massive PS3 glitch that happened a couple days ago? Lots of PS3s crashed and lost trophy information and couldn't play a lot of games because they couldn't handle the change from February 28 to March 1?

    Meh, console vs PC wars kinda disgust me. Also rts games should be PC only. Because so much focus is on balance, patches and player made mods are a crucial part of the game's lifespan
