I need a hand from the gamer element of ATOT here. Essentially my roomate is driving me nuts with his obession with C&C:Generals:Zero Hour. And it's not that he's trying to beat it or anything; he's done that multiple times on Hard. And it's not that he's trying to get better scores or something. He can often get kills of 200+ to zero on Hard. (Best score, 1000+ to zero and will be posted upon request) Suffice it to say, that game is his bitch.
Yet despite this fact he still has a fanatical obsession with playing it. Why? Frankly, I don't know. But he says it's the only one that gives him a challenge. He mastered Starcraft, the Red Alert series (both original and sequel, and expansions), and War Craft 3... well, that's just not even a challenge. While he has played the Civ games in the past and enjoyed them, he's looking for something with a quicker pace.
So, I am appealing to you on his behalf (he's a wimp on the net at times) for some suggestions that will offer a challenging RTS game that dosen't have an AI that just cheats its way to victory all the time. Age isn't a huge issue, though more modern games are appreciated.
Thanx for any help given.
