Publisher Aspyr has announced that Hellbent Games' Xbox 360 port of Chris Taylor's real-time strategy title Supreme Commander has entered the manufacturing process and is on track for a June 23 release in North America.

Originally developed for PCs by Gas Powered Games, the game was described by the publisher as having been "slapped on the butt and approved by Microsoft" in a recent press mailing.

"Our new baby will be in stores June 23," the publisher added.

Is this supposed to be an identical port? Also, how toned down are the graphics supposed to be - from those screenshots the degradation looks significant :(

Question: will this have the ability to save mid multiplayer game? I remember playing 6+ hour long TA games, and I simply don't have the time for that anymore, so it would be nice to be able to play with friends and save as needed, and then re-load when everyone is back together.

No seriously I love SupCom on the PC and I'd be intrigued to check this out.

will there be a demo?

I personally don't really believe an RTS will ever work well enough with the console controller, but certainly the developers deserve credit for trying.

Looks like a blatant TF2 rip off, if you ask me.

waiting for the 29.99 bin before I pick this up. RTS games on the console really don't do it for me.

What will make this work is the De-emphasis on micro and the emphasis on grand Macro strategy. Especially with the new addition of user made templates, Supcom on the console could very well be a good fit. With less hectic clicking required, huge scale strategic zoom, and emphasis on grand strategy I think this could work much better than the C&C ports.
