Supreme Commander 2 demo on XBL

You'll want to be Stalin something.

Gas Powered Games' Supreme Commander 2 has been squashed into a demo and made available on Xbox Live.

The file's 586MB and can be queued for download on the Xbox.com site now.

What's in the demo is unclear. Colonel Rodgers - the game character who wrote the demo description, obviously - appears more interested in sounding off about the full game than listing specifics.

That full game, incidentally, is an RTS where lots and lots of little units blow each other up in the air or on land or in the sea. New to this sequel are chaotic experimental units and a more user-friendly approach.

Eurogamer's Supreme Commander 2 review delved deep.

    That's pretty cool. I've not played the first game, but I have played every recent RTS on XBOX - with the exception of the new C&C, because I hated the Red Alert (etc) economy system and don't want to repeat the experience.

    SC2 has a lot of depth, interesting varied units, real game-changing tactical swings, more complexity and above all else - a decent economy system. Doesn't look half bad either. All strategy fans should give this a look :)

    Gamecentral gave the 360 version 7/10. Its a far superior port to the 360 than the first game was.

    Hope it's worth the effort. But I'm kinda interested. Nice 20 buck game.

    Endwar is the best strategy game for consoles - best interface with the use of pad/voice control. Much better then any other strategy game esp in realtime on consoles. Recommended esp for online World Domination War.
