    Wich do you ppls consider the best RTS/TBS of all times?
    My picks are Warcraft2 for the RTS and Civilisation2 for the TBS?
    What about the upcoming Empire Earth?It seems prrety impresive so far.

    I have been in love with Age of Empires II since the first day I got the game. The expansion pack adds some greatnes to an already great game as well. I have played AOE2 (and still do) every day. I just can't go to sleep without my nightly AOE2 fix. Before AOE2, I played Starcraft a wee bit, but it wasn't really my kind of game. Before SC, I was a major WarCraft II addict.

    What I love about AOE 2 is the co-op/multiplayer abilities. You can play every single map in the game so many different ways. The expansion also adds some fun and new game modes... and well.. I was amazed that I found a game to replace my love of Warcraft2.

    Of all of the RTS games, I would have to agree that Starcraft is the best. I like the C&C series and AOEII, but Starcraft is my fave.

    I do love Starcraft ,btw,I played mp on both starcraft and broodwar kinda like 500 hours+on lan ,;at that time I didn't have i@net,so I love it,but it is based on warcraft(and c&c),like most RTS r.
    I do expect more about RTS's in the future,not the lazy clones,but something more challenging,like B&W promises to be,and lot more than 3d landscape ,wich appeared lately in RTS's like Earth2x and Dark Reign 2,wich both I enjoyed kinda2 hours because it was nothing new...

    My 0,2$.

    My favorite RTS is Starcraft. RTS's that I've played:Warcraft,Warcraft2 w/expansion,Starcraft. What other RTS's should I try?

    My favorite TBS is Civilization 2 Miltiplayer Gold. I have an Atlantis Scenerio I created LONG before Microprose released a second expansion for Civ2. It definately has more work put into it then theirs and I like mine better. Need a Civ2 fix and want to try something new and original? Icq me and I'll send you my Atlantis scenerio (It is 640kb total unzipped). The Heros of Might and Magic seres is also one of my favorites.

    SC SC SC STARCRAFT is the best RTS ever made Thinking that Ive Been playing that game from the first day it came out. But there are also outher cool RTS eg. Homeworld very cool in the Third Dimention.. I'm playing Ground control . I love the Graphics the best i've ever seen in a RTS but i think it spoiled me for any other 3D RTS, been trying to play Dark Reign 2. Age Of Empies how ever you spell it is ok but just does not have the compleatly Different Races. Oh yes the story line In GC is one that caught me and Did not let Go. Anyway that is my 2 pence.

    See you later and keep on jamming SC

    PS. WAR3 will kick every RTS Game out of contention
