The best game ever IMO was probably Civilisation. Crap graphics and sound, but utterly addictive gameplay, many were the times I found myself still playing at 3am (4 hour sessions were not unusual, although I didn't know they were 4 hours at the time).

I am waiting for this.

Have been waiting for quite awhile actually... and I pray that I won't be disappointed. But it looks great.


that so reminded me of the under rated codemasters RTS game Soldiers: Heroes Of World War II , that game is pure class damn shame not many people got it.

Did anyone actually suggest that?

Dawn of War is a mile better.

Only game I've bought recently has been Evil Genius. That's great game.

A good "old" underated game I always like to play is Hostile Waters. Single player only but great.

Tell you what's fantastic and a quick skim through the thread tells me no one's mentioned it - Total Annihilation. Absolutely rocktastic oldé RTS. If you haven't played it then you're totally lame and must get it as soon as humanly possible.

I originally thought so too, but my mate assured me it was fabbo. I gave it some more time and it turns it it's really rather gut.

Nah it does suck. Nothing beats the original c&c red alert. What happened to the cool music instead of this rubbish classical stuff?

Also the single player is absolutely rubbish, I only played 2 missions. MP is fun but only for about one game a month.

Warcraft 3 is a good RTS if you like shorter games, I got tired of c&c because in multiplayer games lasted well over 1 hour, in warcraft 3 they last 5-25 mins, normally 10 mins a game.

Warcraft 3 single player is ace too, it has a good storyline and the cinematics are first class! Plus its only about £15-£20 too!

Exactly my point - first time I played it it was absolutely turd, didn't get much further than that. After some convincing from a mate, I gave it more time. Turns out it's actually good when you get in to it. Zero Hour expansion pack is gut too.
