"best rts"

what is the best rts game that i should buy?
My computer doesn't play direct x 8 games or higher as it is too slow.

Starcraft and the Brood War expansion should suffice for your RTS need, both offline and on. It's still going strong in Korea I believe, and is a cracking RTS in it's own right.

Shut up Bob. Civ 3 sucked, it sucked soooo bad.

I still need Civ 3.

Civ 2 has eaten my life for the past 10 years.

Civ 3 owned AoE. OWNED!. Waaay better. Waaay waaay waaay better. Get Civ 3. Even though it's turned based it still OWNS AoE. OWNS!
So in conclusion Civ 3 roxors AoE's boxors.
Ok you needn't worry about any more stupid comments, I'm going to bed now.

Napoleon!

WOOT!

Hang on, AOEII was great, but stupid little armies with fiddly control management and, well, patheticly small forces just don't cut it when Medieval and Rome: Total War are in town.

Yeah, that's what I was going to say. He'll have to stick with AOE2 until he gets a better comp.

I dont think that will run on his comp though...

Scratch that. Put down a pre order for AOE III: The Age of Discovery.

In my opinion it sounds great, and judging on the quality of the earlier AOEs I'll definitely pre order it so I don't have to buy it later in the year. Set in the era of 1600-1900, firearms and artillery will be available. Kabooooom!

:D

Red Alert 2 should play ok.

Its a classic.

Age of Empires 2: Age of Kings
