Supreme Commander Reviews
I was not impressed by the AI, which seemed to be random patterns with no real thought put to it. The worst is the interface. There are games from the 90's that blow this out of the door. I haven't seen a game this bad in a long time, and thought it would be a Total Annihilation upgrade.
But if you expect smooth graphics and a 3-d semi-realistic environment you would have expected from some game so heavily plagarizing a best-selling game from the 90's like TA. I can't believe this game got an award. When you get this game started, you'll realize there are dozens of buttons and icons that have no documentation and you can't use them, but they are all over the screen until you build up to using them. As an Information Architect, you realize how bad an interface can make a game.
Look elsewhere. First, the graphics at the highest setting look extremely dated.
I will say however that this game is a 'big' RTS. Supreme Commander as well as the Forged Alliance expansion is top notch. I wont go into some massive review since there are pleny of sites out there that do a much better job. I had sworn off PC gaming for quite a while but let a friend talk me into picking this up to play.
I had long been an FPS and RTS fan on the PC but since my Xbox360 entered the home the PC had been left alone as far as gaming was concerned. If you're looking for a game to get you back on the PC then this is it. By that I mean that you will have massive numbers of units in massive battles. I love playing this game and the expansion.
I'd suggest it to anyone looking for a great RTS.

Not found in the above description, I keyed this in from the back of the box -. 512 MB RAM.
can you say boring. play World In Conflict instead. it was fun for like 2 hours or so, but i found it to be not very interesting at all. The title says it all, If you have never played a good RTS game, then maybe you will like this game, but for anyone who has played a game like StarCraft then you know how bad this game sucks. Maybe this is one of those games that is meant to be played multi-player only as it seems that would be quite enjoyable, but as for the single-player experience two thumbs down. i only made it through like 4 levels or so before i had to call it quits.
I would not recommend buying this game. This game was a huge disappointment. The game was won't even work on my computer even though my computer meets or surpasses all of the required software. And I couldn't even contact the company.
