    Company of Heroes 3: Console Edition brings the glory of the real-time strategy genre to the consoles in a spectacular way. Featuring two different campaigns and a freshened-up design, it will give you hours of good fun sitting in front of your big screen.

    Company of Heroes 3 - Console Edition is a mostly competent port of a very good tactical WWII game, but it still feels like it very much belongs on PC.

    One thing is for sure, and that is that the strategy-minded gamer will find many hours of gameplay in Company of Heroes 3, and if you don't have access to a PC to play on, the console version is a fine second choice.

    Company of Heroes 3 may not always hit the right notes, but as far as RTS console ports go, it doesn't get much better than this.

    Though Company of Heroes 3 might lack some polish and its implementation of a console-friendly control system takes a good while to get used to, Relic Entertainment has nonetheless crafted a layered World War II RTS that combines meaningful tactical choices and consequences with compelling street-level strategy that just begs to be revisited time and again. Armchair generals should rejoice.

    Company of Heroes 3 is now available for consoles and it's a good choice for those that like WWII games. It has two narrative modes, and the gameplay focuses on destroying stuff and making your strategy.

    Despite notable slips, such as the technical and visual part, bad interface and unnecessary complexity, Company of Heroes 3 has merits for delivering a good RTS on consoles, being fun and for having a good adaptation to controls.

    Many essential features are not present on controller right now, especially if you wanna go multiplayer :

    - no queue for orders (without tactical pause)
    - no shorcuts for units or groups
    - some buttons do not work has intended

    If you play against someone with mouse and keyboard, he will have all of this…    … Full Review »

    again a developer that cannot do simple things right. It is virtually IMPOSSIBLE to select a single unit and give orders. It is terriblyagain a developer that cannot do simple things right. It is virtually IMPOSSIBLE to select a single unit and give orders. It is terribly annoying to then see other units move as well and undo the choices and orders you made before. Especially in the heat of battle it frustrates to see units die since they act upon orders given to other units. This has nothing to do with the controller, other devs have been making proper rts on consoles for well over a decade.
    So saving often is important, were it not that saving takes so rediculously long, at least twice as long as loading. Also, the game is unstable, crashes regularly, countdowns for missions do not appear, or the UI disappears entirely. Usually this means you have to restart the ENTIRE mission (as reloading a previous savegame ends up having the same problem).
    Then there is the save problem. The game often doesn't allow you to save/delete a game or crashes.
    Also, why the hell does it keep pushing Playstation Plus on me every time I go into the main menu? I decide whether I take Playstation Plus on not. Screw this pushing behavior from a dev that cannot even make a decent game. For the sake of never having to deal with such crap again, I can only hope this dev will go bankrupt.
    Avoid this!    … Full Review »
