Mike Simpson from Creative Assembly says that the current generation of consoles will not be able to work with their popular RTS Total War. “They don’t have enough memory, by a large factor,” Simpson tells Eurogamer. The audience for console games tends to be a little more action-oriented and a little less strategy focused, and the experiences are very different as well, he asserts. But there’s hope yet, “for all sorts of reasons.”
He also goes on to say that the interface is another obstacle that they would have to hurdle over, but with solid game design they could pull it off. Creative Assembly says that they have some “very clever ideas” to port their game into the next generation of consoles and still maintain that pick-up and play style.
