    The girl who played Tanya is another hot actress, Kari Wuhrer. She was on Sliders for a few of the later seasons. She has excellent boobs.

    Grace Park really isn't too skinny... especially in BSG when you can see her right next to Tricia Helfer (who is also in C&C3) who has bones and ribs protruding in a most unattractive way. She was also in Playboy a couple months ago.

    Just for clarification purposes in case you people have no idea what girls we're talking about


    Kari Wuhrer - Tanya (RA2) - Maggie (Sliders)



    Grace Park - Lt. Sandra Telfair (C&C3 - GDI) - Sharon Valerii (Battlestar Galactica)



    Tricia Helfer - Kilian Qatar (C&C3 - Nod) - Six (Battlestar Galactica)



    Jennifer Morrison - Kirce James (C&C3 - GDI) - Dr. Cameron (House)

    Well wait a minute. If they both depend on tank rushing how different can the strategies be? I thought Supreme Commander didn't rely on rushes?

    Boobs for the win

    What I mean is that Supreme Commander has several strategic paths to victory... by "strategic path", I mean the strategy and build order you choose... you can use a zerg rush, you can out-tech your opponent, you can use nuclear missiles, etc. There are many ways to victory. The way that you choose vs your opponent will determine whether or not you succeed.

    C&C3 has far fewer choices on what you build and your build order... it's pretty much a tank rush. The way you win is to micromanage better than your opponent.

    Ohh man...

    I've installed it yesterday around 2pm and kept on playing till 4:36 am this morning.. 14 hours pretty much straight only stoping to poop and eat. I've played 2 level from GDI then NOD and back to GDI all the way to the end

    The best way I can describe it is a "C&C stylized Generals/Zero Hour game with Ramped up graphics and better interface"

    If you're a C&C1 fan/purist you would love this game. I enjoyed it very much. The gameplay is true to it's roots but the pace is much faster. There was one GDI stage where you have about 6 game minutes to stop a Alien "Gravitation Rift" and a NOD Nuclear missile from launching.

    I have to admit the ending is rather disappointing compared to say C&C1. (I did both the "good" and "bad" ending on GDI) and both ending is pretty much the same and it sucks. I was using easy mode.

    anyone finished it with hard? maybe it's a different ending.

    I have to say for a game that looks this good it runs VERY playablly on my rig with everything Maxed out at 1080p, just no AA.

    I got the patch 1.02 in and I didn't notice any problems at all.

    Great game if you are a C&C fan.

    I'm stuck at act 2. But the patch 1.2 helped my gameplay run smoother. I'm actually thinking that Ea has gotten two patches out relatively quick. It took a long time for homm5 to get patches, and it was more buggy on release. Ea did a good job on this game. Its kinda rare from them, but I like this game. I want to see more cut scenes. Thanks Kamakazi for showing the different pics. They are all hot.

    I find nod alot harder than GDI.

    I was able to beat GDI easily using easy mode.

    on NOD it was pretty hard. I can beat it but it's just too time consuming and I use a money and unlimited power cheat just to get through all the level and see the cut scenes.

    good thing I didn't waste 12+ hours playing it through with honor like I did with GDI.

    The NOD ending was too much a disappointment to justify 12 hours of play to see it.
