RTS Game Of The Year?

Hi, so what do you think the RTS game of the year is??World in Conflict- Innovative RTS game.COH: Opposing Fronts- A stand alone expansion pack for COH.Supreme Commander- A Sci-fi RTS game that was a sequal to Total Annilation.C%26C 3- The sequal to Tiberian Sun. UAW- Made by the same people who used to make C%26C games, ex-WW. RTS Game Of The Year?
Id have to go with world in conflict..Its original an great and addicting gameplay..Great on graphics also...RTS Game Of The Year?
No Dawn of War.....probably the best out of all of those
WiC.
[QUOTE=''Adam-117'']No Dawn of War.....probably the best out of all of those[/QUOTE] Dawn of war didn't come out this year, lol. But I agree, DOW ROCKS!
WIC, amazing game.
WiC... I hate that ''Build a mini-city then go to war'' crap... And in WiC you just call for reinforcements and you're off. You're ''money'' (reinforcement points) charge up without you doing anything, so you don't need to waste time mining or whatever.
WIC just owning!
World In Conflict, then Supreme Commander for me.
GO WIC!!!!!!!!!

I think CoH Opposing Fronts is the best, I personaly don't like WiC units because are too small(I hate that in RTS)
World in conflict
WiC for me. Its gameplay felt really fresh and innovative: call for reinforcements, the tactical aids. And it also had really nice graphics. CnC 3 comes in a close second place
WiC without a doubt
I vote C%26C3! :P
World in Conflict - i love this game. btw i think that ressource collecting thing is no longer up to date
Well i'm sure w8-inf ofr universe at war ... but we haven't played it yet ...so we don't know ...anyway its between CoH OF .... %26 universe at war for me !
WiC, WiC, WiC!
World in Conflict is gonna get it, cuz of visuals and innovation, but CoH is way better IMO. You have to build a base, but there's hardly any base building, it's still very focused on combat and catching strategic points. WiC is just simple and boring, it just looked pretty.

Should I get Crysis or Bioshock?

I need help. Which one would you recommend for a fan of first person shooters.Should I get Crysis or Bioshock?
They are very different from eachother. It would be better for you to read reviews, watch videos, etc. and see what looks more appealing to you, instead of just asking this question.Should I get Crysis or Bioshock?
I think u shold get Crysis .. I would also recommend u Kane %26 Lynch: Dead Man if u like 3th person shoting
I never played Crysis yet,but Bioshock is a good game. Beware for all the System Shock 2 fanboys, though.
Crysis. Combat in BS is boring.
TY for the input.
Crysis...i pefer a game that doesnt hold my hand the whole time and wanna go my own way
It's worth noting that BioShock lacks any kind of multiplayer functionality. If this matters to you, it'd be best to go with Crysis.
Crysis by a longshot. Crysis's multiplayer is lacking compared to other games with multiplayer but the core gameplay beats the crap out of Bioshock's

Neither.... get The witcher or COD 4I have Crysis and Bioshock niether of them are as good as The Witcher or COD 4.
[QUOTE=''cperry005'']Neither.... get The witcher or COD 4I have Crysis and Bioshock niether of them are as good as The Witcher or COD 4.[/QUOTE]I just bought CoD4 AND The Witcher in the past couple of weeks. both are amazing.
Crysis is by far the better game, but Bioshock is definitely worth playing - especially if you've not played System Shock 2.I'd say grab yourself a copy of Crysis right now - I don't have time to go into my reasons, but if you have the machine to run it, Crysis is just by far the better game. But keep an eye out of low price/bargain bin deals in Bioshock. It's definitely worth playing.
if you want value for your money definitely get crysis first.
Crysis
[QUOTE=''DarknessDeku'']I never played Crysis yet,but Bioshock is a good game. Beware for all the System Shock 2 fanboys, though.[/QUOTE]LOL!anyhow, if youre more of a halo person go crysis, but if you like a deeper experience play bioshock

I own both, but without any doubt at all, Crysis is the FAR better value, and it generally a better game too. Bioshock is nice, but has 0 replay value, overall it's charm comes from the setting and presentation, not the gameplay.
Wow this is a really hard question... I would get bioshock. it took longer to beat and is overall a more memorable experience. Cyris multiplayer is bad and slow so it is pointless. Crysis is like would be ''far cry 2'' so if you really liked far cry then that might be good but if you want a completely original and different experience i would get bioshock. Actually it would be better to get both...
I would get both...and did.

Mac Switchers are unwise!!!(to say the least)

Wow, you bought a mac, and its better than your pc? I Wonder if thats because your mac is a new computer, and your PC is from 2001!!!Mac Switchers are unwise!!!(to say the least)
Actually, I use a MacBook as a laptop and its great for musical applications ranging from swaping audio clips to panning samples with Ableton Live. Gaming-wise... yes it has its problems though that doesn't necessarily means that it's crap.Mac Switchers are unwise!!!(to say the least)

i never understood why some people like macs so much it just dont make sense to me. besideds it not having as many viruses. and they seem way more expensive to me. but hey everyone has their opinion
I'm a semi-professtional video editor, soon to be pro, and moving to Hollywood. PC's don't have FCP; sure, you can get a GTX and what not, but for a Mac, gaming isn't a big deal so it doesn't matter. This post is ridiculous.I make money on my Mac, I have a huge hobby for games and building PC's. So yes, that means have a Mac Pro, Power Mac G5, Apple Cinema Displays, MacBook Pro, and an iMac for my video editing and for home use. I have a gaming PC (see sig for details) for GAMING!Yes, Apple's operating system is much more solid than Vista; Vista has crashed on me, and Mac OS X over five years of use, has not. I trust Mac OS X. They are two different platforms without two different sets of applications, and two different specialities.Yeah, please don't say Mac's suck; I wouldn't be successful without one, they are a much better for video editing.
Macs are good, but that video on youtube makes the people look like retards...



''I couldn't find the button''



''What cable do I use''



wtf..
[QUOTE=''amekhov'']Macs are good, but that video on youtube makes the people look like retards... ''I couldn't find the button'' ''What cable do I use'' wtf..[/QUOTE]A percentage of Mac users are those who aren't computer savvy, and were told a Mac was simply and they needed a computer; usually one will go for it. Another percentages are those people who want a computer that just works; so they go with a Mac. Another percentage is for the people, like me for instance, who use Macs for professtional productions and so on.
The whole scheme that macs are SOOOO good for professional editing is a hoax... you can make a pc for half as much, install adobe premier/Photoshop/Reason/Whatever professional software you need and get better performance and stability. Mac users are all elitist morons. End of case.

One of the reasons I use a Mac primarily for editing is due to its robustness. That way I don't lose jack *bleep* halfway through a track edit; unlike Windows, which has a tendency to crash on occasions whenever more than 13 audio samples are compiled at the same time! That and I can actually kill the process better than wait for XP to close the damn program, even when I try killing it through task manager.[QUOTE=''amekhov'']Macs are good, but that video on youtube makes the people look like retards...

''I couldn't find the button''

''What cable do I use''

wtf..[/QUOTE]That and people have a tendency to just assume/envisions things of a Mac or not go and learn how to use a PC, thus making them the morons. And those videos are pretty much biased. You'll see that most advance users today branches off into both fields to take advantage of their benefits.
Mac excels in the laptop department, I personally am buying a Mac Book Pro for college and dual booting Vista. Mac has the better hardware right now.
Ive got to say some of the Mac ads really piss me off. I feel as though they embelish the high points of the product but at the end of the day thats what ads are for. I use a Macbook at home and for my college work and its fine. I cant say its any better than the pc i previously owned but i can say that ive had no problems, all my drawing and graphics applications work hitch-free, aswel as the music programs i run. It has a simple interface which is nicer to look at than the xp one i had previous to this.The Mac ads should be more along these lines: Mac - Great for creative work, crap for games.
I hate the Mac... They need to leave computers and continue selling iPods... I guess since Amber McArthur likes Mac, I will leave it alone, shes just so cute with her technology understandings, to bad she left...
Well, a friend of mine is now an official Mac whore, however he plays all his games on he Xbox, so yeah. In that case I think you'd actually be better of with a Mac.

Moi, however, couldn't care less the Xbox or PS3, the Wii is the only one I'm still considering buying IF there's ever a game out that suits me. Because games are the reason why I have my PC. So no Mac's.

Macs have their place in the world. They are good, reliable PCs for typing documents, browsing the internet, and doing assorted ''chores''. Imo, their only bad aspects are their inability to play games well, and their price.Also, for people proficient with computers, the ''ease of use'' that macs have can actually cause frustration, at least for me. Thats how all Mac products are from my experience.I used my mom's ipod yesterday, and (as with my other MP3, non-ipod) i simply hooked it up to my PC via USB and expected to be able to load songs on since the ipod has internal software. Nope. I had to download itunes, which in turn has about THREE background programs that run even when itunes is closed. Then I have to ''sync'' my mom's ipod which deletes all her music, then I had to make a new account, then I had to resync it. This is good if you have directions and not a clue, but if you have lots of experience with PCs and then you get your hand held by Macs because they dont trust you to do the right thing on your own, its annoying.The mac computers are the same way. I dont want to sound cruel, but the only people who should use macs are people who dont know jack. And video editors, but I think thats more due to a lack of software and whatnot than due to Macs being more capable. Just my opinion.

Heroes of Might and Magic goes Massive Multiplayer

Heroes of Might and Magic Online

a legendary RSLG played it since 1997 now TQ Digital has it, good news or bad news?

Bright side is finally someone make it online, but my new concern is how it turns out to be a MMO.

Dark side, TQ Digital......................

btw Heroes of Might and Magic III is my all time favorite XDHeroes of Might and Magic goes Massive Multiplayer
Cool.. we'll see how this plays out.Heroes of Might and Magic goes Massive Multiplayer
I'm a big fan of HOMM and it needs a change. In a good or bad way? We'll see.
*snore*............wuh?
Hurray, yet another ''We want yachts and chicks so we're gonna make an MMORPG!''-MMORPG.
How many players will this one have? 10 perhaps? Good for them! Now, are there actually any games coming out?

Yes, Heroes need a change, becouse it feel's like you're playing the same HOMM III (which isn't a bad thing, but it's getting boring :? ). But this is just my opinion :)
How can it be done though? Its a TBS game after all..
[QUOTE=''sSubZerOo''] How can it be done though? Its a TBS game after all..[/QUOTE]probably, so that's why we call it a CHANGE =)
[QUOTE=''LHOO''] [QUOTE=''sSubZerOo''] How can it be done though?

Its as ludcrious as calling World of Warcraft, Warcraft 4.
What the hell?! :evil:Why do you people keep having faith?!The ''Heroes of Might and Magic'' saga died long time ago,along with the deceased ''3DO''...''Ubisoft'' and their blasphemy,have taken away all the enthusiasm and respect we had towards such title.
Plus add the fact that ''Heroes of Might and Magic'' is based upon the universe of ''Might and Magic''.We'll probably see a massive multiplayer game of ''Might and Magic''...
Rylsader the Doomsayer...
[QUOTE=''LHOO'']btw Heroes of Might and Magic III is my all time favorite XD[/QUOTE]''Heroes III'' = Apocalypse spell + Black Dragons = Most lamest form of victory!!The third release of ''Heroes'' was quite impressive,but the game had some overpowered spells and an unbalanced characters improvement...If you seek tougher gaming experience,try the fourth release of ''Heroes''.By the way,''Sandro'' is the freaking king of all times.He appears at every release(I don't know if he appears in ''Heroes of Might and Magic V'').

Question about installing WoW?

Yes my friend finally convinced me to start playing again. I was just wondering, do I have to patch the classical version of WoW and then install Burning crusade.... or can I just install Regular WoW, and then right after download BC without patching the first game?Question about installing WoW?
Install WoW, install Burning Crusade, and then patch.Question about installing WoW?
You can do it in the order you want. WoW>BC>patch saves time though.

You should get better friends :?

Looking for a game where I can roam free and destroy stuff.

Hey all. I'm looking for a game where I can roam around freely and just destroy things on random. I don't want to have to follow a storyline, but I don't mind if there is one. The type of game I'm talking about is like FlatOut (first one) where you can roam around and just destroy things on random, or the GTA games where you can reak havoc on cars and kill people on random. Does anyone know of any games like this? I don't mind if it's seven years old as long as it's playable on Windows XP. The ''True Crime'' games was not very good, and Burnout and games like that does not allow you to really roam free and have an impact on your environment.I do however like Saints Row, but as far as I know it's not available on PC which is what I'm looking for here. Any and all help and friendly tips would be greatly appreciated.Looking for a game where I can roam free and destroy stuff.
grand theft auto san andreas, mafia is somewhat free roaming, far cry is free roaming on an island, oblivion you can go wherever you wantLooking for a game where I can roam free and destroy stuff.

GTA series is the only once I can think of right now.....

Carmageddon 2 is your game. You drive around killing pedestrians and blowing up cars and you also have the option to race. There is a time limit, but for everything you destroy you get more time so if you run over a bunch of people you will be able to play for a very long time.
Boiling point let's you do pretty much as you please. Although your actions will have a little more consequences as gta for example. It has a faction system so unless you compensate for your transgressions against a faction at some point you will be attacked and hunt down whenever they spot you and even civilians will pull a gun on you if you have a bad standing with them.

The GTA3 series is the only good one atm, they all have a lot of mods so they should really satisfy you. GTA4 on PC (hopefully) in a year or so, so you have that to look forward to too.
