Age of Empires is such a great series. AOE3 is true garbage though. I played a game of AOE2 Conquerors last nite and I was dominating up until they built a wonder I couldn't destroy in time (I would have won). Then I played a game of Age of Mythology Titans. Over all I'm very glad Bungie let Ensemble Studios (A Microsoft company) to take the production of Halo Wars over.

I tried Warcraft and Starcraft but they are just too outdated and don't do it for me. I also think Blizzard is slacking in the RTS department , their birth genre, because of their current huge success in the MMORPG categories. Maybe I should try Warcraft 3 again...

Command and Conquer 3 is pretty good I love playing as the Scrin. My computers a bit too slow to really enjoy it though. Me and my friends did have some pretty good matches in this game though. Red Alert was an oldschool favorite.

BFME2 is just not my style although I do like its gameplay. My friends love it and used to have 2v2s at our house and have two boxes set up in the same room and plan strategies.

I'm going to have to go with Titans as the best RTS I've ever played. The Hero, Myth, Normal Unit system is just great as is the Special Gods and each unique civilization. Me and my buddies have had so many great games on this and AOE2.

I'm still waiting for Sins of A Solar Empire. That is going to be one hell of an RTS 4x game. Read the 1up preview for that game and you'll be super excited for it too!

Halo Wars is looking quite exciting too, The graphics look great on the demo and gameplays and the sound is going to be ridiculous with the new Wwise system they have incorporated. As long as the multiplayer isn't unbalanced and not half baked it should be a great game especially due to the fact its going to have so many purchases just off the Halo branding. Oh and if they create a decent campaign. Hopefully looking forward to some great videos incorporated within some in play videos and hopefully a great ending.
