Wow! If I were Infogames management, I would change the name after this fiasco.

Er...that was tongue-in-cheek, right? Infogrames actually DID change it...to Atari!

They pretty much would rather be associated with the new Enter the Matrix game than MOO3. lol

You mean they made Sim Galaxy instead of MoO3 ?

They made a SIM Galaxy that plays the game for you, and they forgot to give you a front row seat.

The one game I have in mind as a good RTC game was RoboSport ...
Thanks! I was looking for this game awhile back but I couldn't recall the name. I agree, this was a fun game. However, I'd say it is better described as a hybrid of real time and turn based.

Yes, and Aaron will make it properly designed so as to eliminate all the click festing things people associate with RTS games. There is no way any beta tester will let him rest if he doesn't.

Just because Quiksilver can not get anything right does not mean that it is impossible.

Hey, what's wrong with real-time combat? It just has to be pausable. I liked it in Medieval: Total War.

A horse in a specially designed truck that keeps the horse alive without any significant problems, and yes, a horse in a desert works just fine.
