    Re: Best RTS game...

    I love Sup Com, esp with Forged alliance, but I will never have a favourite, there are simply too many! Here are some more of my favourites though:

    Age of Empires 2, with Xpack
    Red Alert 2, also with Xpack
    Dawn of war, esp Dark Crusade
    Dawn of war 2
    company of Heroes

    MAJOR LOVE for Rome Total War and all other total war games, Medieval, Shogun 2 and Empire/Napoleon, Creative Assembly are one of the best game studios ever made!

    Re: Best RTS game...

    Company of Heroes would certainly be up there.
    Played a lot of Cossacks, especially the 2nd, amazing if you like a slower paced game.

    Me and a couple of friends got Sanctum while it was on offer, good fun multiplayer

    Re: Best RTS game...

    Rome: Total War is the *the* highlight of the TW series. Nothing beats playing through the original game to establish a great empire, and then playing the (first) expansion and playing a barbarian nation hell-bent on sacking Rome. Medieval II: TW was exceptional though. My all-time favourite has to be Age of Empires 2 though. I must have put in _thousands_ of hours into that game.
    I would also include C&C Generals (with ZH expansion) as well though.

    For me Rome: Total War has to take the crown but honourable mentions have to go to the original C&C Red Alert, Generals with Zero Hour expansion, and Warcraft II.

    Total War:Shogun 2. Especially if you're a fan of Ninjas/Samurai Warriors/Feudal Japan.

    Re: Best RTS game...

    Dawn of War series.
    C & C Red Alert
    Company Of Heroes

    Not sure if this counts as RTS but anyone remember Cannon Fodder on the Amiga? I freaking loved that game. It was actually genuinely sad when you lost one of your unit that you'd had thru the whole game.

    Never had Sup Com 1 (got Sup Com 2 and that was pretty enjoyable and I hear 1 is much better).

    Rome Total War because of the sheer amount of detail.

    So true, I think there is a website that lets you play it as well as other old games, including Super Dune 2.

    Starcraft 2 hands down! No one plays Supreme Commander anymore.

    Re: Best RTS game...

    I have to admit, I'm a bit of wimp when it comes to Supreme Commander as I prefer 2 XD - I also really enjoyed playing the Fallout Mod for C&C3: Tiberium Wars with my friends until I kept getting "out of memory" errors all of time =[

    Re: Best RTS game...

    I have to agree with the above. Go back in time and play some of the classics.

    Dune 2
    C&C
    Red Alert (first not 2)
    Total Annihilation
    Starcraft (1 not 2)

    They look crap, but play well.
