Ahh me 2 me 2 too bad that I didn have a decent com to play computer games until now the games I played in those days were borrowed computers or on my 486 then latter on only a celeron 800 megahertz.

I remember some time ago some 1 asked for a multiplayer mech commander 2.
Talking bout mech commander I miss the mech warrior series too though its abit out of topic but ....
I wonder why with all the new graphic improvements no 1 make mech commander anymore, that goes for flight simulation games just kinda dying. These days so many fps that I got so fadup with it no 1 thing of nice gameplay anymore but just graphics graphics.

Hmm haven't tried mech cmdr though.

Here's a few RTS that I consider it fun to play.

Populous : The Beginning ( Shaman turns to god FTW!!)

Act of War Series : awed by the graphics when I 1st bought it.

Star Wars Galactic Battleground : ( can make a lot of jedi to war)

i missed many games cos of that also.



yeah me too. i only played MW2, MW3 i didn't. MW4 i played but the expansion i didn't play.

yeah, i miss those good old days where flight sims were common.

nowadays all FPS.


funny thing about the Act of War game was that (I played was Act of War: High Treason) I couldn't get pass mission 2. or was it 3.

i don't know, putting all my years of RTS skill just couldn't get pass it due to ridiculously overwhelming odds and to some extent, a little lousy control of the units.

I miss those mech games.They are all awesome games.

Yeah,now days only FPS with better graphics.No much changes in gameplay.

So far I find Red Alert 3 challanging, since haven't touch RTS games for a while after Warhammer 40k : Dark Crusade.

try homeworld, homeworld 2 and the Evil Genius

I guess the most recent flight simulation that I have played is battle field 1942 then 2 and thats about it I think thats the best game every created by EA for me.
and thats originally EA.

I played Act of War till my com always crashed and after that I stopped. I guess cos its a downloaded version I could not find the game in market anymore, other than ahem stores. Guess I shall see who is selling that game.

There's a huge Flight Simulation community. They've got their own Air Trafiic Controllers and they use Gaming Rigs most of us can only dream of. Microsoft Flight Simulator supports multiple monitors and most of the Flight Simulator players take their hobby very serious. You can even compete in the Red Bull Air Race! What I do see a lack of is are the Flight Simulators for military planes or helicopters

to me, the revolutionary ones are

Half Life, System Shock 2 and Deus Ex.

after that, the other FPS to me are just............FPS. haha. I never touched Crysis also, other than the demo for benchmark purpose.

i don't know what's the hoohaa about Crysis.

Crysis is just very good eye candy thats all to it. However Empire total war seems different to its previous total war.

that's what I thought. till now I've yet to come by decent FPS also. STALKER is actually WAY better than Crysis IMO. graphically and gameplay wise.

oh btw, back to RTS. I MISS DARK REIGN!!!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_Reign:_The_Future_of_War

11 years back and still beats the shit outta most RTS today.

Hmm looks abit like westwood games to me, should download and play some time that is if its still around.

bleh, beats the crap outta Westwood punya games.

I always prefer the old days of FPS, where they just, well, honest-to-god mindless, with a little bit of twisted humour, I am looking at you Serious Sam and Duke Nukem.

Anyway does darwinia considered as RTS ? So retro and exciting.

Well,
Dark reign beat me flat, I never finished the game. No other game i know learned from their mistakes.

Syndicate Wars was godlike.
Dune2 was godlike.
Warcraft series... i dunno.


Anything westwood.
Anything relic. =)

ahah yeah. how about Doom or Wolfenstein 3D? anyway let's not go FPS la.



that difficult?

there's also another strategy game that i can't remember the title.

it works something like WiC and i think it's from Sierra. Set in future.

RELIC!

dark reign was ok but dark reign 2 was crap.

dune 2 = dune 2000? with a lot of sand maps right?

It kinda hard la that game.

dune 2 was nice. only problem is no group select. so to send 1 line of Devastator meant having to click 1 by 1 and hope they reach almost same time.

dune 2000 was lousy. damn horrible, they tried the rock / scissor / paper style ala StarCraft but failed badly.

you guys keep ranting about fps games ?? have you all played call of duty 5 ?? it has a very good game play and it's not a no brainer .... you dont feel heroic after winning the game though unlike the previous games like medal of honour where killing people = purple heart for you..

Dune 2 is the original and Dune 2000 was the remake. Dune 2 was better imho(its a classic after all)... Dune 2000 was mediocre...
