Universe at War at $10 on Steam!

I'll tell you some of the good things of the game and the engine:

- The storytelling is a lot better than, let's say, C&C3, I mean, ingame.

- The game has lots of videos (made with the game engine) to tell you the story

- The music is incredibily good, of course made by the C&C music master himself, Frank Klepacki. And it resembles a lot the music style of the C&Cs.

- The HUD, despite it includes a bottom bar, lets you build units from anywhere on the map and from various factories at the time. Despite not being a sidebar, it's not bad at all.

- Every faction has radically different ways to build their base. One of the facitons, the Hierarchy, has a crawler system.

- The engine is really fast, although it hasn't the best graphics, it looks pretty good and realistic in terms of complexity and proportions - a lot more realistic proportions than SAGE - that immerses you a lot.

 

I think this engine has a lot of potential to make C&C mods.

For those of you who don't know anything about UAW, it's a science-fiction RTS game made by Petroglyph, a game studio formed by former Westwood developers.

 

Grab the game NOW, as the offer ends at September 27th!!!

When I think about UaW I think how it bombed BIG time. It has potential but really wasn't even finished when it was released. Plus I also hate what happened to our old (now dead) Petro fan site, Petro-Gamers.com - http://web.archive.org/web/20081219115742/...tro-gamers.com/.

This game isn't worth $10. It's just not...

I'm tempted to get it...

 

But I'd rather get the last DLC for New Vegas instead.

Hey I'm selling my last spare copy of UaW on the MightyApe Marketplace for guess what $10
