It's World War 3 on a scale and level of intensity that has never been seen. The full war genre that Tom Clancy created with Red Storm Rising eventually comes to life with Tom Clancy's EndWar - a chillingly realistic vision of World War 3!
True to the Tom Clancy's videogames' tradition of innovation and excellence, Tom Clancy's EndWar is an all-new breed of strategy game. Designed from the ground up for consoles, it is a fusion of next-gen technology, superior design and first-class production values behind which is veteran strategy games designer Michael De Plater who's previous titles include the Total War series.

Customer Reviews
It's good...but I'm not!
After an near interminable wait, I was pleasantly surprised when End War eventually turned up. After initially trying to play the game with only the handset I was beginning wish I hadn't bothered. However when I was reminded that there was a headset still unused in my X-Box...box things became much easier and fun! I'm just not very good at it!
The control system is really good once you get the hand of it; voice recognition is pretty good and as a previous reviewer said once you get the hang of some of the maps, gameplay flows.
Although I'm sure there are better strategy games out there End War is a ood addition for the uninitiated. A very enjoyable blast even if I do feel a bit of a tool taking to the tv screen!
Confusing..
This game is fun, don't get me wrong.
But there is one main feature that this game lacks, I, for one, played this game and thought it was rather good, played a couple of missions and seemed to 'get' the game.
But after a few hours of play, I still don't know half of the commands, it seems to introduce alot more every mission, but doesn't explain them.
Played the Demo
I've just played the demo for Endwar. I was very impressed I thought its was going to be pretty bad because of the voice control.
If anyone has played the any games controled by voice eg SOCOM navy seals you'll know it is not perfect, but this on the other hand is great.
The mic picks up your voice great you don't need to talk slow or blocky or slowly. all you have to do is talk normally, "unit 2 attack hostle 4" or "unit 3 secure zulu" very normally and the unit does as its asks.
The graphics are very good as well as the sound and game play.
I will be buying this game i recommend you do as well.
