    Used to be a fan. I have red alert and borrowed tiberian sun from my bro, but I have exhausted my interest in Harest>>>Build>>>Shoot games. It's not that I think they're bad, they just all melded together in my mind.

    Last one I tried to play was Fate of the Dragon, but it's written badly so I gave up.

    Last one I REALLY enjoyed was Majesty. It's character & gameplay really made it stand out.

    i could't play internet games in E:BFD (i can just host game, not join) becuz tech bugs, also i sent many e-mail & posted many topics about the bug, they just delete/ignore my topic/mail. this is very annoying, so i give up on E:BFD. then i read PCgamer's Arcanum review (also Computer Games review), play the demo, and brought the final version.

    Yeah, I was used to be a fan of the C&C series since... well, since C&C. I played Red Alert 1, 2 and its extensions as well as C&C and its extensions. In fact RTS game were my favourite type of games until I got bored and switched to DiabloII/Arcanum.

    The king of RTS is Starcraft because:
    1.Cool storyline
    2.Balanced races
    3.Fast and never boring gameplay
    4.Cool units so you can think of lots of tactics.
    and so on

    Yes Starcraft is a very good game. But it lacks of cool videos like in the C&C series (haha I still remember that I used to learn the dialogues and played little briefing remakes with my lil brother... lol)

    the movies were cool back in 98. now it's so GODDAMN FAKE I have to take a STUPID pill to take this seriously. Emperor counted.
    the starcraft movies were the best.
    remeber the [I love you sarge] movie? yeah..

    Starcraft came out in about 1998. Broodwar in about 1999. How could they not make it Win98 compatible? Besides, if a game works in Win95, it should work in Win 98...
