Halo Wars...

PONIES · 03-03-2009, 09:39 PM

the best RTS that I have ever played

Robotazy · 03-03-2009, 11:38 PM

....huh.

Maybe I should look at it.

Domus · 03-04-2009, 05:38 PM

I played the demo, but that's all.

Halo Wars invented RTS.

Demonicus Prime · 03-05-2009, 07:01 PM

I dunno, the demo's great, but $60 worth? I can't really justify it. I just don't see the full game having anything storywise I don't already know, and multiplayer is irrelevant because I hate multiplayer RTS' against real people.

I'm on other things right now, but it's definitely on my radar.

Age of Empires 1 and 2 would like to have a word with you.

Oh, and the Warcraft games are waiting for you in the corner as well.

Oh, hey there, Starcraft, what's up? Oh, you want to get your word in as well? Be my guest.

Wait, is that the Total War series banging outside the door right now?

heh · 03-06-2009, 12:17 PM

sorry but total annihilation already won this award ages ago.

also dow2 just came out so it can't even take "best rts of the year so far" award

PONIES · 03-06-2009, 01:15 PM

I failed on this one

**Loot** · 03-06-2009, 01:25 PM

You're a goddamned idiot, you know that?

Baby's first RTS on consoles don't count. Halo Wars isn't even the best game made by Ensemble, let alone alltime.

I'd argue that it isn't even the best strategy title to come out in the last week (Empire: Total War).

Yeah, except the press agrees. 82 average at gamerankings and metacritic (while Empire: Total War is sitting with a 93 on both).

i never said that it was ensemble's best game, nor did i say it was the best game of all time... i just said that it was the best RTS that I have ever played, even if the number of RTS games that i have played is minescuel.

I don't give a damn about what other people think. MY statement refers to MY opinion.

Lurch1982 · 03-06-2009, 01:55 PM

Your opinion is wrong.

PONIES · 03-06-2009, 01:57 PM

... and so is yours ...

Mine's backed by experience (vastly extensive experience playing RTS) and other opinions of other people who have played far more RTS than you. Yours is backed by you.

PONIES · 03-06-2009, 02:01 PM

hence the title MY OPINION

Robotazy · 03-06-2009, 02:35 PM

Seriously. Just say Lurch is right. While you still have a shred of self-dignity.
