http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16832166009

good game, insane price.

 

[Fanatical Meat]

I hate to thread crap but please try the steam demo before buying this, its nothing like Sup Com.

 

[Tristicus]

Um.....lukewarm.

Theres a reason its price shot down immediately.
Try the demo first. Game is only worth about 3 bucks.

That happens often with sequels to good games. Some people are NEVER satisfied with sequels, especially if they really loved the first one and the formula was changed up a bit. For instance many C&C fans think of Generals as the red-headed stepchild of the series.

I think it is a reasonably warm deal for less than the cost of a fast food meal. I already have it, picked up during the holiday Steam sales. Haven't tried it yet.

I'm a huge CnC fan and I loved Generals. C&C3 was garbage though, and I didn't bother with 4...

As for Supreme Commander 2, I bought it during the Christmas Steam sale. I've only played it for an hour, but I don't find it fun at all. (Supreme Commander 1 is better in almost every aspect, I think).

I haven't even bothered trying the campaign because the starting cutscene made me cringe hardcore because of how... bad it was. Going to give it another go later. It did win PCGamer Co-op game of the year award I think.

+1

+1 from me as well. I got it for $5 from Steam and I feel like I overpaid for it. The 1st game was amazing, this sequel not so much.

 

[ibex333]

Yeah... Except that SupCom was also crap. It was nothing like TA.

I never played TA, so I had no expectations of what SupCom "should have been" but I highly enjoyed the game and its controls were great.

 

[juden666]

TA was a great game, played that and KKnD way back in the day. Now I pretty much play fps dont have time to sit down and geek out on rts' anymore.

Like I said earlier... 🙄

Like I said earlier... 🙄

It's true, though. ME, ME2...great, loved 'em both. TA, SupCom? I couldn't get into it, but I have many, many hours in TA.

 

[paq7512]

$4 can't be beat

 

[filetitan]

what game is TA?

 

[vshah]

it's worth 4 bucks, but forged alliance is a vastly superior game IMHO

 

[HeavyD]

what game is TA?

Total Annihilation = SupComm 1

Also had many hours of TA and the fact you could make custom units and share them.

what? TA != supreme commander 1. you could say it was the spiritual predecessor.

So true, I should have said it better.
