Default Re: What Makes A Good Game?

For quite some time I've been searching for two games. A space fighter shoot-em-up better than FreeSpace2 and a RTS to beat TA. For the FS2 beater I've all but given up, no-one is developing any similar sort of game, and Volition is too busy making FPSs based on the 'Red Faction' engine.

On the RTS front though I have found Dawn Of War, but a mere 9 months after it's release A handfull of new features and the resource model that 'Z' tried for but failed to implement. Plus good graphics, excellent gameplay and comedy voices. The only down sides: high(ish) minimum specs and the 1.5Gb install size (plus a minimum of 1Gb freespace to install the v1.2 patch. A patch for ****'* sake!)

Of course my replacement for the 4x type SEIV game is easy: SEV (hopefully )
