Before the presentation started very well, Chris noticed that I was the only journalist who had no technological tool in the form of such a mini laptop or voice recorder. My response "I'm old skool, that's how I roll" then was greeted with laughter, like set the tone for the rest of the Supreme Commander 2 presentation."
VGChatz's Taneli Palola: "There's no question that during these years the overall popularity of the genre took a significant hit, as most games within it specialized even further by adding new elements from other types of games into their gameplay loops and consequently became increasingly niche as the years wore on.
However, this doesn't in any way mean that the period was devoid of great games. Quite the contrary, in fact. Arguably some of the greatest RTS titles ever made came out around this time, and much of this was because many developers were increasingly familiar and comfortable with adding new twists and gameplay elements to the familiar formula. As such, even when the genre's popularity dwindled, many studios were still creating excellent and groundbreaking titles almost every year, just for a smaller audience than in years past."
those were fun years red alert star craft command and conquer well when westwood studio made good games before EA brought them like bioware...

Well, for those three people that still remember and play it, modder ‘purplelf’ released a new mod that allows gamers to play the single-player campaign in co-op mode."
Neil writes "The Xbox Games With Gold scheme for March 2016 is nearly in play, bringing four new free games for Xbox One and Xbox 360 owners. But is the program actually worth getting excited about? Are the Games With Gold titles for March 2016 actually any good, or is it just another waste of your precious download limits?
Well, March is most definitely going to be a bit of a slow burner, but it'll finish on a note that is higher than anything we've seen before."
Can't wait to get stuck into Sherlock again, it got lost in my backlog but having it on digital will encourage me to venture back in.
Never felt like playing full price for Lords Of The Fallen, but I will definitely DL that game and play it. And since there seems to be a lot interest in Sherlock Holmes, I guess I will try that as well.
"Moreover, saw the 360 version is not as impressive as the PC version and the observation that the development of Supreme Commander 2 in the first half began and 360 people also decided to make a PC version, which sounded insincere"
either that sentence makes no sense or chris taylor was trying to say they had intended to make a 360 version and port up......which is insane and b.s
