Conflict...

This game DOES look really good. The story does feel a little reminiscent of C&C: Red Alert where you are fighting the Soviets, but is different enough to keep it just a feeling. I have always been a big fan of non-building or resource-harvesting RTS games. Sierra seems to have some form of secret with that type of game because one of my favorite RTSs, Ground Control, was made by them. Good for you Sierra. I will see if I can get the demo and test it out. Again though, Apaches, Hind Ds, Abrams tanks, Russian tanks(since I don't know which they are but I think they are T-95s), Black Hawks, what more can you ask for?

  1. Yeah, this games is really cool.. I was at target today looking at it. I really want this game, but I want it for less then they are selling it for. Though I might have to give in.

    There are a lot of things in Conflict that remind me of Red Alert. For example, your troops can barricade themselves in buildings -- similar to RA2. I really love that building to building crawl with infantry.

    WiC reminds me of how I used to play 'imagination' with my Military micro-machines as a little kid. All the units are micro-machines that were in my collection, it's freaking sweet.

    All combat, no base building. a kick ass action RTS. Plus, the game is graphically beautiful. Oh, and Nukes, you can call in tactical nukes.

  2. Colonel! What's a Hind D doing in New York?!

    Pretty powerful trailer...what's the plot of the game, just "ZOMG SOVIETS" or something a little more interesting?

    Does look a lot like Ground Control. Hmm.
