Although realtime strategy games are problematic to do on the PlayStation, that doesn't stop companies from trying. Command & Conquer: Retaliation is scheduled for a summer release, while Command & Conquer 2 may make a appearance in 1999. Blizzard is already considering a possible PlayStation version of StarCraft, its latest PC realtime strategy game that's been flying off the shelves since last week.

Blizzard has yet to announce any definite plans on a release date or how it plans to develop it for the PlayStation -- whether it will give it to a third party developer and publisher (like it did for WarCraft II), or whether StarCraft will be developed by in-house talent. According to Blizzard representatives, "We haven't made any final decisions or announcements."

PSMONline's betting on an announcement three months after the release of the first StarCraft expansion pack.
