    Default does it work on xbox 360

    hello friends!

    On the back of the game it gives reference to xbox 360 so I wonder does empire work on xbox 360?

    Nope, I got bored while playing the xbox 360 one day, and put ETW in it, and its recognises it as a muiti-media disc xD.

    ETW on an xbox 360 or PS3 would be even more horriable than the 360 version of C&C RA3, and dude thats some crazy .......... just picking units and organazing them is not just inpossible it's horrible!

    No strategy game on an xbox until they make a mouse and keyboard!

    Put it in a 360 and try it out.
    The extra development time will allow us to finalize and polish Empire, making it the most accomplished and epic of the Total War series." said Kieran Brigden, Studio Communications Manager at The Creative Assembly. "There is a great deal of anticipation around Empire: Total War and we want to ensure that it is the benchmark for strategy games upon its release.

    As others have said, I dont think E:TW, or any TW game for that matter, was ever desgined or intended for consoles. Strategy games in general are not suited for console control-schemes. There are some exception where developers have tried to develop "Console-RTS'es" with mixed success. The game "Endwar" comes to mind.

    To play TW games on console they would need a lot more formation options, and formation of brigades ie buying officers on horse back and link regiments to them, click officer to command all the regiments as a unit and move them aroudn in various formations available through that officer including columns, lines, skirmish. That would make a game like ETW function much better on a console. You wouldn't have to click and drag to place formations of troops and such as often, though that option should still be available.

    it could be could if there was a hot key or buttion or something like End war where you use a mic to comand them or with something like the new inventions of things like the wii where you can move controlers but it will be like gloves and things a virtual reality type thing but different.

    So all you have to do is put this glove type thing on which acts like a mouse and maby a mic if you have it and maby a keyboard hook up which they do have. Do i will get it in a heart beat for the PS3 or 4 when ever the tecnology comes out. They are working on these things. Imageing conquering the world or what ever by siting down in front of you tv.

    I can envision the formation groupings now:

    Square: X + A + B
    Increase File: X + X + B
    Increase Column: X + X + A

    etc.

    Thats a crazy question (No Offence). It would be the craziest thing CA Did if they made this for 360.
    I also agree about the mods TW Games without mods wouldn't be TW Games.

    Even if you did upload it to your 360 hard drive, the game will most likely not load, the graphics will be screwed up if it does load, and there will be no working controls if the graphics are not screwed up.

    Ah dont be surpirsed if CA do a tw game for a console (360 or play3) the Xbox will actually run a key board Yeah no mods but in time even the PC versions will be so tight you wont be able to change anything so then it will be no mods (seems to be there direction

    rememebr they are chasing your dollar and currently consoles eat a huge share of the gaming market i can see those cash register eyes now going ching ching (will they really care if its flawed they did such a bang up job with etw on release

    This thread is ridiculous. You think that a PC game will just work on a console? Jesus there are some stupid people in the world. From post #4 I can tell you're a troll because you're saying it works, which is a complete lie. I don't even have to look on the back of the box to know that you are lying.
