Can Real-Time Strategy Work on a Console?

Electronic Arts just sent out some new screens for Xbox 360 real-time strategy title Battle For Middle Earth II. This is the first RTS for the 360 and boasts a pretty slick interface and amazing graphics. No wonder, Westwood co-founder Louis Castle is the game's executive producer.

The real question here is can a mouse and keyboard genre like RTS work on a console with a controller? Halo managed to prove shooters can make the transition, but is it too much to expect RTS can?
