My Top 3 RTS PC games

Newest technology brings the latest and the most mind blowing games ever released by the most acclaimed Game Developers today, fastest processors, advanced graphics and High Bandwidth Memory module to deliver the excitement of HD games and eye-catching 3D graphics. First person shooters like Far Cry 2, Crysis and Bishock for example give the gamers a real life dramatic experience because of its great game play and eye-catching graphics that is sure to blow your brains out. Don’t forget the Action Adventure genres like Gears of War and Assassins Creed, they show some intense game play and striking special effects. But we are not talking about FPS and Action Adventure Genres right? We’re talking about frame by frame action, nasty war games, building war barracks and command centres, were talking about Real Time Strategy Games! And now I am giving to you my top 3 RTS games I played and finished. This games are “A MUST” and I recommend this to all RTS gamers searching out there. Here is my first pick:

COMPANY OF HEROES, game developed by Relic Entertainment, this game is set during the WW2 (World War 2). The player takes control of the Allied Forces for the Battle of Normandy. Just like any RTS games, the player needs to gather resources to produce units like soldiers, tanks and armoured vehicles not by gathering gold or oil mines but by capturing strategic points placed around the map. These are the three resources: Manpower, this is required for unit production. Munitions, this is needed for upgrading squads/troops and weapons. Fuel, allows the player to purchase armored vehicles and tanks. I really love this game for its unique game play like capturing strategic points, great graphics and loaded with intense action like what other RTS games don’t have. I don’t want to be a spoiler to you guys so I suggest COMPANY OF HEROES added to your shop cart now.

My second pick should be WARHAMMER 40,000: DAWN OF WAR series, another game developed by Relic, and yet another strategic point “capturing” game play. I guess the Relic Developers have the upper hand for this time, 2 games in a row! So let’s go back then, just like I’ve said capturing strategic points is the key for success in W40k: Dawn of War for resources, unit production, special abilities and critical for dominating the game, the player controls a squad instead of individuals. Set in the Warhammer Universe where there are Space Marines, Chaos Space Marines, Eldars and Orks. These are the races or factions that the player is free to choose from. The W40k: Dawn of War has the three expansion packs Winter Assault, Dark Crusade and Soul Storm which proved that the gamers want more from this excellent game. Great graphics and exceptional game play. And yet, another amazing game must be added to your shop cart.

And my last pick is none other than the WORD IN CONFLICT by Massive Entertainment it is also considered as Real Time Tactical or RTT game. Set in Seattle 1989 which the Russian are invading the American soil, nothing more to say here but the most astounding graphics and extreme game play, with artilleries of all kind, air support, napalm drop and my most favourite nuclear bombing! There is nothing more you would like to ask from this game, because this will give you the best experience you can get from a RTS game.
