    [​IMG] Have any of you guys played this game? I’m looking for something new to play, at least until nwn2 is released, and I was wondering about acquiring this game. It did receive a good grade at gamespot, but I have been quite disappointed with the late RTS games. So what do you feel?

    Brilliant. Fantastic. Greatest RTS ever, in my opinion. If you don't get it, you'll be missing out.

    Is it really that good? :hmm: What the heck, I’m going to buy it. If it fails to please me… well… It won’t be the first time. :shake:

    My brother is playing it and constantly raving about it, so i'm gonna get me a copy this weekend. Apparently the gameplay is kinda like Age of Empires, but of course in a different timezone, with the option to completely zoom in, and much MUCH better graphics.

    I’ve got my copy already, and I’ve got tell you it's an excellent game. I've been playing it like crazy, after all, I have to enjoy it now, because after NWN2 release, there will be little time for such things like RTS, or life. :D

    Installed it yesterday, have yet to test it today. Thus far it has looked rather promising, although I don't really like of RTS games and even less of the "american heroes" theme.

    I don't know what to say, this game is simply awesome. It's an RTS, but none like i've ever seen before. I feel almost miserable for having to attend a birthday party tomorrow, so i can't keep playing. :shake:
