IGN gets hands on with Clancy's RTS EndWar

The team over at IGN was invited by Ubisoft to come visit, do lunch and you know, play the latest build of a little game called Tom Clancy's EndWar. And through their EndWar gaming experience we learn a few new things about this console RTS. First up, we learn that Ubisoft is trying two new console FPS mechanics by using a new point of view and voice command. EndWar defaults the POV down, closer to the battle showing everything through each unit's perspective rather than the top down "heavens" view seen in most RTS games. Also, EndWar will support voice commands that (get this) actually work! IGN says that they had absolutely no issues with voice command and say it will make moving units a lot easier. Make a quick click over to IGN to get their complete impression of EndWar, how the game fairs in multiplayer and why nukes can be bad news. Though really, when are nukes every really that bad?
