With stunners like Starlink: Battle for Atlas and Child of Light both heavily discounted, chances are you could have filled your Xbox digital library on the cheap. But guess what, that sale has gone, only to be replaced with a brand new set of discounted titles. Want to take in all the bargains available via the Xbox Deals With Gold and Spotlight Sale for 8th-14th September 2020? Of course you do - the Ultimate Game Add-On Sale is included for good measure!"
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...
Aside from C&C 4, the other C&C's from EA were all good/great. The genre nose dived once Moba's rose in popularity, even Petroglyph Games (ex-Westwood employees) haven't had a hit since Star Wars: Empire at War (2006), all there games got abandoned after launch.
It's been a while since we have seen a new C&C and while it was a brilliant RTS game in it's time is there any hope for the series? For those who didn't know there was going to be a FPS version of C&C but instead we got C&C Generals.
