Anyway, yesterday I discovered that all of the RTS’s ever are rater above 8.5 on GameSpot. Which is really flippin’ amazing, considering how harsh gamespot is.
In order of graphics:
Total Annihilation
StarCraft/Brood War
Red Alert 2/Yuri’s Revenge
C&C: Generals/Zero Hour
Supreme Commander [u]___These two about even.[/u]
C&C3: Tiberium Wars /
In any case, who plays them, who wants them, who’s getting them, and who has them lying on their shelves, unused?
Me:
oh 5) looks sweet… like TA (total annihilation) but im sure has different gameplay. it must be for advanced systems because judging from the up close images, it would require a really good comp to run. maybe the engine has a way of lowering the poly count on the units and buildings the farther you zoom out. by the way, cavedog, the company who developed TA, went out of business so theres no way of getting your hands on a copy from retail at all >.<
TA was a great game, so if any of you want to try to get your hands on it, i would suggest ebay.
Or coughpiratingcough.
It’s not like you’re hurting anyone by pirating it anyway, and you’re not risking being sued by cavedog, seeing as they don’t exist…
Anyway, yes, it requires a good comp to run. Both of my computers, I tried running the demo, and it gave me “Error: Your computer is a piece of shit.”, and started deleting my hard drive.
(1) Never played, but keeps in mind
(2) Never played
(3) I have C&C First Decade so yea, I played RA2, bout to start of Yuri’s Rev
(4) LOVES, played bout 5 hours today alone. I made the Rangers shoot Aurora Bombs instead of flash-bang grenades >:3 (WIN HARD!!!)
(5) Downloading >:3
(6) Wants, but is unsure of performance on my PC
StarCraft: Lying on shelf… >.>… <.<…
WarCraft: Gave away for Dawn of War - Dark Crusade… then I bought the originals so I can pwn with Space Marines online… >.>… <.<
Supreme Commander: Comp not good enough for demo soooo… its not on my list
CnC:Generals\CnC:1+2: Never played
CnC:3: Played demo… but I couldn’t get the impressive graphics so I decided to skip that one.
(6)CNC3 T-wars = me has…BOOYAH FUSKING AWESOME, Ion cannon = <3
No seriously, the engine is SO DARN efficient O_O. It loads faster than Generals and it looks manifesting. Almost perfect control scheme and interface. Plus you can add commentary to the replays .
If you have the minimal requirements (2.0 Ghz, 512 Ram) GET THE DARN THING.
I decided not to get it a few days ago. Got Supreme Commander instead, mainly just to be different <_>;
Still haven’t played Supreme Commander, though. Can’t get my new comp working :<
