Vintage RTS Games Worth Playing in 2010

Hello,

Which one of those games do you think are worth playing, even in 2010. Thank you. (By the way I am not interested in multiplayer, I only care about single player).

• Dune 2
• Warcraft 2

• C&C
• Red Alert
• Tiberian Sun
• Red Alert 2

• Dungeon Keeper
• Warlords III
• Dark Reign
• Total Annihilation

• AoE
• AoE II

All of them.

Warcraft II and III, easy. You can get the battlechest for cheap which includes the original Warcraft 3, the expansion Frozen Throne as well as Warcraft II Battle.net Edition. I highly recommend this, one of my favourite series of all times (Warcraft RTS that is, meh to WoW). Single-player is awesome, and there's a map editor you can mess around with to create your own maps and scenarios.

Dungeon keeper is worth it without a doubt... very much indeed

Actually, I dont consider WC3 as a vintage game. I own it and think that it is comparable to RTS games that are released today.

You mentioned Warcraft II, and so the best way I could suggest for you to get it would be just to buy the battlechest, since you get the sequel as well if you didn't have it already. Other than that, Warcraft II is still worth it, especially if you liked Warcraft 3. There's also Warcraft I, if you really want to go back. It's also a great game, nice atmosphere (It's more darker).

Why don't you get Command and Conquer The First Decade. Tons of great "vintage" RTSs.

I already own it. I am curious about your opinions about the games included. Some of them seem dated. But, I am not sure they are worth playing in 2010 especially when games like C&C 4 and SCII are due 2010.

You should look into Ground Control. Made by the same company that did World in Conflict.

All of them.

Age of Empires 2 is my favorite RTS of all time.

In my opininon, Starcraft -like WC3- can still compete with recent RTS games.

And Rise of Nations.zomglolcats
