    Anyone play RUSE? For those unfamiliar, it's an RTS, fairly fun on consoles. I can hardly win a multiplayer match because if you're playing 2v2 you really need good communication with your teammate or you're screwed.

    The premise was fascinating. The $10k USD touch-screen table was not.

    Why would you need a touch-screen table?

    I've played the demo, it looked nice and had some different ideas that makes it a bit different from almost every RTS out there.
    But it was a little to hard for me so I havn't played it that much :D

    Cause it is a RTS. When playing on a tuch-screen it becomes way more cooler, it gives an impression that you are realy giving them commands like a future general. Playing seem more lika a bigger and more complicated game of chess. At least I think so since I havn't played on a tuch-screen but this is my opinion nonetheless.
    As a answer to your question, no you don't need a touch-screen but it makes it a whole lot cooler :D

    Ohhhh, I play on consoles so I've never heard of the whole "touch screen" thing. But yes, it's a great game, I just wish I could play a game of multiplayer without getting absolutely owned.

    Because originally it was advertised like this (And yes, that's the actual table designed for the game, not just a eye-candy for the trailer):

    And only after a few months the developers said:

    - "Oh, guys, we forgot that not everyone can afford $10k for a game, here is the loser version for the touch-screen monitor and here is a hobo version with mouse and keyboard"

    The ruse demo was awesome, unfortunately it's just one of 'those' games that you never end up buying for no particular reason.

    They seriously expected people to pay $10,000 to get the table to play it on?
    Holy crap they were deluded

    Sometimes I wish I was rich. But that is incredibly overpriced. To be honest the console version's controls are a little clunky but I still have an enjoyable time.

    For a tuch screen the size of a small coffiee table I think it's roughly fair price.
    Still it is a large sum but not totally over the top.

    That is one of the criteria I look for when buying a game.
