Some brand new Stuff from Supreme Commander 2.
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.

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.
LOtF is a Dark Souls rip-off, in the good kind of way, albeit far easier ...that said its a pretty decent, yet short power fantasy light RPG with good visuals.
Now that's free its even better! Give it a try!
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.
I'm playing it right now, it's actually a very fun game. Very rewarding when you figure out how to kill an enemy for the first time.
Very keen for this game, but all these games seem so far away, this has been on my wish list for a year, and still no word of a release date, that's probably a good thing though, the old wallet has taken a beating.
edit: that clip is not new, i saw it 6 months ago, BUT last time i didn't watch it all, it shows some experimentals at the end, they are pretty damn cool, but possibly weaker than they were in forged alliance, also not as pretty
Wow...Supreme Commander 2 essentially fixed all the gripes I had with the first one. That was also one impressive demo video. Now I can only hope that my PC can take the toll of thousands of simultaneous blasts going off every second, heh.
