If the initial announcement and trailer for Ubisoft's real-time strategy game R.U.S.E. left you confused, four videos worth of gameplay should clear things up quite nicely.
Gametrailers caught this footage of R.U.S.E. being demonstrated at the Game Developers Conference earlier this week. They give you a nice little taste of how the game plays, while showing off that amazing zoom feature that takes you from what looks like a wargame in a shop somewhere down to the actual action and back again. I could easily get $60 worth of amusement simply zooming in and out, over and over again. Your mileage may vary.
