A sci-fi themed real time strategy game for the PC and Xbox 360, featuring a structure of 3 unique factions (Ala Starcraft), and cross-platform multiplayer.

Universe at War: Earth Assault is a Real Time Strategy (RTS) game developed by Petroglygh Games, and published by Sega. The game was originally to be titled Invasion: Earth. As indicated by the subtitle, Universe at War: Earth Assault is the first game in a planned series.

A key highlight to UAW is that it is one of the first games to use Games for Windows LIVE. The game features cross-platform multiplayer between the PC and Xbox 360 versions. A first for any RTS game. Unfortunately, Petroglyph didn't release the patch to enable cross-platform play until nearly 4 months after the release of the Xbox 360 version of UAW. On top of this, the cross-platform connectivity is strictly 1v1, and it has been stated by administrators and developers at Petroglyph that there will never be a patch to implement more robust cross-platform multiplayer support.
