I very much doubt it. It's made by Relic, who has made several innovative RTS's already, like Homeworld and Ground Control. It would be uncharacteristic of them to make an RTS/FPS hybrid.

I hate vids, promos and screenshots for any game that aren't in-game shots of gameplay. I had to look at several reviews for the new Test Drive game before I found one that actually had screens of gameplay. Who cares what the cutscenes look like? Who cares what the cars look like in the showroom? I want to see what the visuals look like when we're actually playing the damn game! The worst are video game commercials on TV that often feature live actors and no actual shots of the game, period. I don't get it. What's the point?

As for Company, yes it is an isometric RTS with no FPS elements. It's getting great reviews and I'd love to check it out, but, sadly, it is an XP only game so it's out for me. M$ shall feel my wrath, as my sig says. Word.
