Every time I try playing a new one, three seconds into it I realize, "Hey, this is just Dune2 with prettier pictures." - so far the closest thing I've seen to a real evolution in the genre is Homeworld - and even then, only because it had the 3D gimmick, which sadly, didn't make all that much difference in the end. RTS really needs to be combined with some other genre to be worth while. Mass production competition just doesn't stand on its own, for me at least. If yer into RTS though, can't beat $5 for the latest batch of artwork. Then again, you can play Empires for free... Keep meaning to try that. _________________ "Love is a snowmobile racing across the tundra and then suddenly it flips over, pinning you underneath.

It's pretty slick Thoth, if you're interested you should try it. It's a lot like NS though, in that when you get in you have no idea what the fuck is going on.
One of the big problems with zooming out the scope on multiplayer games and adding more people is that the extent of your accomplishments goes down proportionally to the number of people playing it. I felt that way playing empires. I would lay down some mines, and a tank might blow up, but in the grand scheme of things it was only worth a "HEY WHAT THE FUCK WHY DIDN'T YOU PUT THOSE MINES OVER HERE YOU DOUCHE".
