Saracen 16 Posted September 20, 2006 Needs no introduction. Quite simply the best RTS ever created, it's finally a game which can proudly look at C&C, Starcraft, and any of the competition, and laugh in it's face.... Don't own it? Haven't played the demo? Download the 1.8Gb (Yeah I ain't kidding ya!) single player demo at: http://www.companyofheroesgame.com/ Or if you prefer to save your bandwidth, which is worth using anyway. Go grab one of the many magazines which have this demo on, now! You'll be glad you did. Or forget that and just go buy it, you don't even need to try this game to like it!!! All I can say now. C&C 3, Supreme Commander, World In Conflict. All 3 of the 2007 heavyweights have their work cut out to even get close tho this gem of a game :wink: Share this post Link to post
Shocker 0 Posted September 21, 2006 I preordered the collector's edition a few weeks ago . Definitely an exceptional game from a very talented studio. Share this post Link to post
Mario 0 Posted September 21, 2006 i thought it looked pretty good from the screen shots i saw in Games TM and Edge magazines Share this post Link to post
Sonic 294 Posted September 22, 2006 I'm sure the game is all good and all but these companies have to got to put an end to rehashing WW2 themed games over and over. Share this post Link to post
BWare 0 Posted September 22, 2006 I don't know dude. It was a pretty compelling point in history.... Share this post Link to post
Luk3us 63 Posted September 22, 2006 It doesn't matter. Its been done to death. There are so many games based on or around WW2 it isn't even funny... What we really need is a new decent conflict to make a video game about. Like oh I don't know a nice mini World War 3 would be nice. Ya know? Share this post Link to post
BWare 0 Posted September 22, 2006 Well luk3us, I think that wish is slowly coming true..... Share this post Link to post
Alphabear 11 Posted September 22, 2006 i wanna see a decent WW1 game. The Africa and Palestine campaign would be good for a video game Share this post Link to post
GenKiller 0 Posted September 27, 2006 I'd have to agree about this being a truly superior RTS. I bought it this past weekend having never heard of it before, and was blown away. I haven't been able to put it down. I've only been doing campaign mode right now. Anyone have comments about the other game play modes? -- GenKiller Share this post Link to post
TheBlackOut 6 Posted October 15, 2006 i wanna see a decent WW1 game. The Africa and Palestine campaign would be good for a video game Seriously, the first company to make a game based around WW1 with sounds, graphics, and gameplay will have a goldmine on their hands. And I hope it'd try to educate people a little too, since WWI was VERY brutal war. Gas and what-not. Also I didn't get the demo, I got the beta on a CD which came from PC Gamer magazine I had a bit and I forgot bout. I didn't wanna redownload so I just installed that, I did the training and great gameplay and graphics! Sounds are nefty too! Not very many good RTS WWII... Share this post Link to post
