GameXtract writes "Not too long ago we reported a chance for 360 users to rush over to Eurogamer to acquire a beta key into the VIP demo. I myself don't like VIP content partially because that means you need to be special, and I'm far from that. Especially an item like a demo should be available to all. In order to help satisfy more users who did not manage to receive a key we here at GameXtract are giving away 10 more beta keys in a raffle. It's as simple as registering an account, and posting a comment below with the account name. On the 19th we will draw 10 lucky winners, and their beta key information will be sent to your PM inbox on that account. The beta starts on the 30th so don't fret. You will be able to jump right in with everyone else, and actually feel special. Are you ready to conquer the world?"

Ubisoft has very kindly given Eurogamer an exclusive batch of 1750 multiplayer keys for the upcoming Tom Clancy's EndWar beta on Xbox 360.

The beta doesn't begin until 30th September, but if you take one of the keys from this giveaway page and enter it into a special website at www.endwargame.com/vipdemo, you will be emailed a code to input on your Xbox 360 once it begins.

"If we gave people the Xbox 360 code immediately, they could enter it into their console now - before the VIP demo launches - and it would be wasted," a Ubisoft spokesperson told Eurogamer.

"Microsoft's booth was next to Ubisoft's at PAX. You couldn't help but notice.
So when I had "Halo Wars" lead designer Graeme Devine in front of me, I felt compelled to ask him what he thought of his voice-commanded opposition, "EndWar," across the aisle."

Speaking during an EndWar press demonstration given today at Games Convention 2008, Michael de Plater, UbiSoft Shanghai creative director, revealed that a PC version in 2009 is likely. This is despite the game having been designed to be an accessible and easily understandable RTS for consoles.

Asked whether Ubisoft is bringing EndWar to PC, de Plater responded: "... we're obviously looking at it. A good strategy game is a good strategy game."

While not coming out and confirming the PC version of EndWar, he did note that any such version of the game certainly wouldn't be coming out this year, but a 2009 release would be about right.

CVG: "Ubisoft has released four new screenshots and a trailer for Tom Clancy's EndWar, which 'demonstrates' how the game can be controlled just by talking.

Whilst the trailer has been dipped in a vat of marketing gunk, we can testify from our hands-on playthrough that the voice control works really well."

"Hey EndWar Fans! Sorry it's been so long since our last post, but we've been busy with Ubidays 2008. It was a lot of hard work, but we think it was all worth it. Want proof? Head over to www.uplay.com to check out all the great Ubidays 2008 coverage. During the events (we had one in San Francisco and one in Paris at The Louvre) EndWar was playable for all attendees. It was great to watch people get hands-on time with the game and try out its amazing voice control feature.

We wish you could've been there. Lucky for you, we took a bunch of pictures from both events. Enjoy!"

Ubisoft "wished" it could allow PS3 and Xbox 360 owners to play upcoming voice-command strategy game Tom Clancy's EndWar against each other but decided it was "impossible" because Sony and Microsoft "don't like speaking to each other", Julian Gerighty, editorial content director at Ubisoft Shanghai told VideoGamer.com at Ubidays last week.

EndWar, which is set for release on Xbox 360 and PS3 simultaneously this October or November, is a console-only strategy game which can be played entirely through voice command. Set in the near future, players pick from the Americans, Europeans and Russians and attempt to dominate the world in WW3.

The Xbox 360 and PS3 versions of upcoming console-only RTS Tom Clancy's EndWar will be "identical" when the game launches this October or November, despite the PS3 port team experiencing "a little trouble at the beginning" of the game's development.

Despite the fact that the lead version is on the Xbox 360 and that the development team found the Unreal Engine 3 "a great fit" with Microsoft's console, Julian Gerighty, editorial content director at Ubisoft Shanghai revealed to VideoGamer.com at Ubidays last week that the dedicated 80 or 90 strong PS3 team "is doing really well now" with the port.

Gerighty said: "Because we have to have feature parity there's no difference in features. The way we've developed it was with Unreal 3 and we found it a really great fit with Xbox 360. PS3 team had a little trouble at the beginning but they're doing really well now. The lead version is the 360. They'll be identical when they finally launch."

He added: "There's a whole separate team of another 80, 90 guys working on it. It's really decent. And all they have to do is port it. It's a big team."
