Right, of course, they make an "F2P" (they're never really free, they just have an expanded demo/trial) that actually looks any good, we're queued to bow down or bend a knee in unconditional gratitude. Sheep...
It's irrelevant how good a game is. If there is a trailer for it that is bad, it should be denounced as bad.
From this list, I've only played Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars -- great game, especially if you're into the C&C universe; phenomenal cutscenes: "bald is beautiful", hehe. I'm getting SupComm soon. It doesn't seem to deliver that great a story, but the gameplay and scale of it looks fun, so I'm interested. Sins of a Solar Empire doesn't attract me much -- it's too much based on space battles and a detached world development system. It'd be awesome to see a similar game that also feature deploying troops in orbit by dropships and pods and then leading them in a ground assault (not like Empire at War; the complete lack of ambience is disturbing). I've played Medieval II; expected more fun from it, but the turn-based strategy part just doesn't captivate me. The massive medieval battles would actually be fun if they were of a slideshow in this dated rig I'm packing. Unless I get better hardware, I'll probably not get that expansion. World in Conflict looks sweet; that nuclear blast was phenomenal. I don't particularly like the no-production sort of RTS, but this one shows some special appeal. Universe at War: Earth Assault looks promising. I'm not thrilled that the developers are those who made Star Wars: Empire at War, but we'll see how this one turns out. Empire Earth III, well, doesn't look that good, in my humble opinion. I like the original game a lot, but it's sequel let me down completely. This third coming might end up better, but, from what I've seen thus far, I'm not impressed -- I'd leave the oversized objects to Blizzard and Warcraft III. As for Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts, it might be a hit for fans of the original release. I planned on getting it, but it got bumped down below preferred titles that came up, namely C&C3. WWII isn't particularly a preferred theme of mine, anyway. All in all, the year offers some mighty good quality in a few titles.
