cool nice find.

sins beats cnc3 anyday

I have C&C and frankly got bored with it within five hours. I simply don't feel that "one more turn" passion for it. Whereas with Sins, even in its current state, I have that feeling. I dont know why this is so given the C&C is a great game technically. I'm simply not caught up in the story I guess.

It feels like a post apocalyptic WarCraft to me. I guess I'm more into the planning side of things over the combat orientation elements of a title. With a title like Sins I can feel the empire dimension and it is simply not their for me with C&C.

Its already better than supreme commander. In one supreme commander level i just made 30ish factories and set their exit point inside the enemy base, then i just set them each to auto build. Came back 2 hours later and I had won.

Not to mention the fact that multiplayer games with 4+ players run slow on quad core computers with $1000 video cards.

@lord - yep sure did. Do you remember the sandbag wall tactic?

I'm an old school gamer. Shoot my specialization in grad school was global modeling. It is basically computer simulation design and game theory combined.

@lock - thanks for the support. If they allow custom soundtracks and develop most of the stuff being suggested by those of us on the micro side of the house, then the hours of productive real life activity that will lost for the average gamer will be staggering to say the least.

good thing that sins made it to number 3 in that list --> Free publicity.
