Universe at War has more in common with StarCraft than with Petroglyph's previous effort, Star Wars: Empire at War. This micro-management heavy real-time strategy title pits three factions of aliens against each other in a war over a devastated Earth, and succeeds far more often than it fails. A few UI blunders are all that hold this back from being a classic.
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.
Not bad. I expected lower score for this game.
