Well, I love RTS games, but the thing is they all look a lot like each other. That's why my favourites are all ones that did something new. Warcraft 3 was fun with the heroes, though in matches it was too focused on the heroes. I loved Age of Mythology with the powers. I think the BFME series took those elements (hero gameplay and "godly" powers), but didn't make them too OP in pvp matches. Also, it was my first game where cavalry actually RODE THROUGH THE LINES :O !!!. I was so impressed horsemen didn't stop in front of their enemies, but just crushed them.
Supreme Commander and Total Annihilation were great because it was really large scale battles and things could get really hectic. The maps were so big you could zoom out your minimap so that you'd have the entire map. You could even put the minimap on your 2nd screen . Was great.
And then there's Rise of Legens, any one know that game ? I found it fantastic because the units were truely interesting. No orcs, Elves, Marines and what not. You had a faction that was mainly influenced by Hinduism and things like that. Really great game.
But yeah, RTS are becoming less popular, due to the fact that consoles have become more popular. You can say what you want, but RTS only feels right with a mouse and keyboard.
