Petroglyph, encompassing many veterans of real-time strategy, has set their sights on the Universe but first they just couldn't resist raising a little trouble on our little blue and green planet.
Steam currently has an amazing deal, get 75% off Universe at War: Earth Assault
But the savings are unbeatable. Just Cause2, Witcher 2, Plants Vs Zombies, Torchlight, Splinter Cell, blah, blah, blah. .. so many games I've purchased recently. It is almost like needing a fix, I am addicted to buying these discounted games! The only problem is that steam lists this game for $19.99 not $15.00
And even though I like Steam's crazy deals most of the time, you still have to sanity check Amazon.com, because they have this game for $7.23 @ the moment.

Right, like many of you (I’m sure), I can’t wait for the new Aliens Vs Predator game. I’ve really enjoyed the series and hope this new title won’t disappoint! So I’ve pre-ordered it via Steam out of laziness and habit. For some reason, they’re giving away some RTS I’ve never really paid any attention to with it. Universe at War: Earth assault. Um, well that’s nice.
To be honest I am VERY surprised with this game when you first start it might give you a VERY bad impression (the prologue) of some sort of a dated average RTS BUT once you get to the main campaign oh boy do things change for the good, each faction is VERY different from each other to the point it seems you are playing a different game and the incorporation of sort of boss battles (yes in a RTS) makes the game even better
even with some short comings (Camera problems and mixed bag in terms of graphics) its a pretty solid RTS I would gladly recommend to any old formula RTS fans
plus it has achievements (both 360 and PC version) if you are into that XD
