Over the past decade, consoles have attempted to capitalize on the genre's PC popularity by porting games like Warcraft, Warhammer, and Command & Conquer (with mixed results). There have also been console exclusives such as Goblin Commander, Pikmin, Kessen, and the last two Kingdom Under Fire titles. However, these offerings haven't enjoyed the success of their PC contemporaries, which is somewhat ironic, given the console roots of RTS classics, Herzog Zwei and Dune II (also a PC title). EA is hoping for permanent crossover success when they bring The Battle for Middle-earth 2 to the Xbox 360 later this year.

Kinda unfair in a way. Because of the fact that they replace old games with new games (I think) is not correct yet if they need something more like higher sales or more capitalizim then its fair. Yet as the article says - It is a bit ironic.

The mpre PC titles on the console the better. And vice versa.
