I play alot of pc games but even now I have not found any ones that match up to tiberian sun.Tiberian sun is a stategy game in whitch you build bases and armys to destroy each other.When online you can play and have up to 8 players or 4 on 4 teams!This game is in the future so you can have massive walkers and cool looking infantry.

So if you think you know a better game just say.

It can become annoying when people use artillary on TS, people who spend their lives playing on it get so good you don't stand a chance and they kill you in a few seconds. Thats the only prob with it. Other than it's ageing a bit now.

i dont particularly like games like age II. i prefer a third kind of play included - economy management. the closest i have got to a perfect RTS is anno 1602, but the combat element was disappointing - but it looks like anno 1503 has cleared things up.

No I don't, last time I did I was beaten before I even started since most players now have almost unmatched skills in the online battles. I also don't really find it as fun as the single player experience, so I tend to leave online gaming for shoot em ups instead.

I believe that the best C&C is still the original, or maybe Red Alert. Sure it had its flaws, (building a sandbag wall 100m away from your base cutting the screen in half and watching the enemy’s just build up as there’re to dumb to blow a hole in it), the graphics aren’t too great (now), but at the time of playing, I just remember think it was something really special.

I haven’t felt that way about a C&C game since, I just bought Generals a few weeks back, sure it looks nicer, but I just haven’t gotten into it the way I did with the original.

In my opinion, Age of Empires 2 is the best strategy out for the PC. I recently bought Warrior Kings though and was hugely disappointed by the bad camera angles, bland graphics and shortage of levels. Comments anyone?

:? I don't think so, there aren't that many cotrols to learn for the game, most of the control set up is done via the mouse.
