What Gamespot Users have to say about Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance

  • Rating:3

    Computer games- even RTS -are not supposed to be frustrating.

    I'll keep this brief. In fact, extremely brief. Forged Alliance is far too convoluted, busy, and difficult. I can accept a learning curve (going from, say, old-school C&C to Company of Heroes, for example) but this is... Read Full Review

    Easily the most addicting RTS of the year.

    When SupCom came out it was one of those games I wanted to get and play as soon as possible, but waited a few months and had lots of fun, now FA comes out and enjoyed it as soon a it came out, more so enjoyed the visual ... Read Full Review

    Gaming magic for an old, jaded gamer...but just a few minor quibbles

    As a 37-year old gamer that has recently begun to wonder whether there will ever be a game that recaptures the magical, totally immersive feeling of the truly great games (e.g., Red Alert, Diablo 2, Baldur's Gate 2, Civi... Read Full Review

    A RTS that is second to StarCraft Brood War only.

    If someone ask me about the greatest game of this year, then I will tell him the name is "Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance". You may think that I'm only kidding because there is too much great game that have been relea... Read Full Review

    awesome game, better than the original, there's been major ballances.

    A Whole New Game

    Most units are familiar, but at first it is somewhat disconcerting that they don't play the same as in The Original. The "Easy" AI is initially about as hard as the "Supreme" AI if you played the first Supreme Commander... Read Full Review

    Quite a bit of fun, but...

    The nice thing about forged alliance is that it ramps up very quickly - right off the bat you're playing with experimentals. My only real complaint about the gameplay is that once you've got your base established, it'... Read Full Review

    A stellar update to SupCom, but not without it's issues.

    Well here we are, and not that long ago we had the release of the original Supreme Commander, and now we have it's expansion (possibly the 1st expansion), and it's a strong entry, but not without it's issues. So, let'... Read Full Review

    For any type of gamers who at least enjoy playing RTS, this game is probably the game you should consider owning..

    The first introduction of Supreme Commander has brought a lot of attention for its ambitious scale and massive length of campaign missions. The first game was great, but there were always the feeling that something is no... Read Full Review
