| 447094 | 2006-04-18 01:23:00 | I obviously missed out on something then, cos I only ever played it on single. But as for C&C (Tiberian Sun) - I was known to have spent SEVEN hours online at a stretch, and became ranked better than 900th in the world of over 56 000 registered players. Played even longer spells at AOE - Kings :nerd: Ah those were the heady days of being a uni student! :thumbs: |

| 447095 | 2006-04-18 01:36:00 | I remember AOE2 - Kings, it was great. There was something about that game. Simple, but great. I liked it better than Rise of Nations. Rise of Legends looks cool though. I havn't played a fantasy RTS before. In fact, the whole game reminds me of 2 different series of books I used to read, so I like it even more. I like the simpler resource gathering as well. And how you don't need a villager to build buildings. Mmmm, dragons, phoenix, weheheee. |

| 447096 | 2006-04-18 06:29:00 | Rise of legends seems quite good but I think that is similar to Warcraft 3 When I first played warcraft 3 it was quite fun but then I wasn't use to the fact that the population is restricted to 200 only while C&C you can build unlimited amount of units There was no way of winning on warcraft 3 because whenever I fought against the computer or human players it would actually be a draw. 200 vs 200 population. Anyone still play warcraft 3 these days? |

| 447098 | 2006-04-18 12:27:00 | well, to put it simply, games have been going downhill ever since graphics were considered more important than gameplay. definetly try starcraft, warcraft3 was just a takeoff of it that really was ****. aoe kings = very good the latest aoe, ie number 3, not mythology seems half finished. the only good art is the water graphics lol. new games: battlefield 2, doom3, civilisation4, trackmania nations (free, very good) (http://www.trackmanianations.com), ummm, FEAR is OK but too much looks and no story. get gta san andreas if you have not already... hours of violent bliss :cool: i hate c&c generals, tiberian sun was the best! |

| 447099 | 2006-04-18 13:44:00 | Haha yeah age of empires 3 was really bad. Really regretted buying it.Hmm but it's quite popular up at trademe at the mo as the reserve is like $43 I wonder if battlefield is good. C&C generals was the best:) Maybe you need to spend a little bit longer to adapt the game play:) Doom 3 was quite boring but quake 4 was alot better The problem with quake 4 was that I am unable to find any servers so I can play against other people online. |

| 447100 | 2006-04-18 15:54:00 | tiberian sun was the best!Yes!! I especially liked it recently when I lost my main computer and had to play it on a Celeron laptop on dialup - I still beat up my bro on online play! Go the Noddy's! :D | Greg (193) | ||
| 447101 | 2006-04-18 22:05:00 | well, to put it simply, games have been going downhill ever since graphics were considered more important than gameplay. You what I'm really looking forward to? Jagged Alliance 3D (www.mistgames.ru). The Jagged Alliance games look like [censored] but were great fun to play. |

| 447102 | 2006-04-18 22:39:00 | I remember playing Red Alert 2 with my brother... getting my arse kicked... switching to quake, kicking his arse. Still, you can't beat Dark Forces 2 |

JA2 was a really good game that I would probably still play occasionally if I still had it. I never played the origional. Generals is good, but it needs the Zero Hour expansion to make it great |
