The sad thing is that the FPS will probably end up selling more.

Great news!

Multi-platform strategy game. What could possibly go wrong?

And at a time when even the console crowd liked their games a little more challenging too. Today they would call those games outdated, annoying and frustrating.
I hope Firaxis is aware and handling it as a niche game (nowadays)(Like Dark Souls / Demon Souls) and doesn't even try to bring it to the broadest audience possible . Then this should work out well. A little bit more simplified or made more comfortable, but still fine.

It worked like shit with a controller, but had mouse support on both the PS and CD32.

15 months after release i'm still waiting to finish my mp game. Still waiting for mods to be enabled in multiplayer and the possibility to use dlc in multiplayer. Its a pile of crap if you compare it to what they offer in their advertisements.
