powers and spectacular units. Control massive-scale alien war machines that are fully customizable. With on-the-fly tactical customization, you can dynamically swap out weaponry, rework your tech tree, and retrain units in the middle of combat to thwart your foe and seize the advantage. This advance on the traditional rock-paper-scissors model of balance gives players even more control over how they respond and adapt to their opponent's strategies.The entire globe is at your command, as you manage resources, armies, and territories in the real-time strategic mode. As your heroes lead your forces into enemy territory, you will be taken into fast-paced tactical battles where the emphasis is on combat and action. A seamless integration of both the strategic and tactical mode allows you to call in reinforcements from other territories while engaged in ground warfare and take tactical troops back to the strategic level when you win so you can use them in later battles.Universe at War: Earth Assault features innovative new multiplayer features inspired by todays top MMOs and competitive online environments, giving players achievements, rewards, and medals but in a balanced environment. Each of the game's factions will have unique paths to victory with completely different styles of play, allowing players from across the globe to battle it out in persistent-style online "campaigns" for ultimate faction supremacy.

...Star Wars - Empire At War (for the PC)
If like me, the Star Wars exp erience wasn't quite enough by experiencing it through the medium of film. You want to lay your hands on all the material you can in order to experience what the Star wars galaxy is all about. This game gives you a peek of that galaxy.
It offers the player 3 game playing options, as well as multi player: Campaign, Galactic Conquest (which is again broken down into sub campaigns during different times of the Star Wars saga), and Skirmish Battle, (which is basically the quick battle option.)

Over time, more multiplayer maps and modes were added to the collection via the Xbox 360's download service. All of that great stuff is now available on the PC, on which the game looks better than it ever did...
