I've seen this maybe three times now, and am still finding it funny when Yahtzee shout out in horror when noticing Halo Wars is similar to Halo 3 and Gears of War 2.
"GYAAAAAAGH"
One of those episodes that can be rewatched, and still considered funny, in my opinion. Well done, I say.

Has one person here even visited the RTS genre for more than a week or so? No one here thus far has really given their proper props to the RTS gamers. I know that Starcraft is a somewhat overused example that is 10+ years old, however, you cannot deny that there is several leagues, and rushing doesn't work past the intermediate level of play. This is just a note.
My real point, is that save... mtk2a, no one has given any real list to the genre.
Next, Age of Empires. Ensemble Studios has been mentioned next to none in this entire thread, and you are missing out on a great studio, although they closed with the making of this game, halo wars. I personally believe that any console RTS is doomed to fail without hot keys and a mini map that can be used easily. This being said, Age of Empires I, II, and III have all been great and have added to the list of great RTS's throughout the decade. Age of Empires; The Asian Dy. was played at the WGC, and has a playerbase of 5000 active at any given time.

Adding to this list, Total War - Empire, is an RTS, however... it isn't quite Real Time persay, as there is a turn element involved and it tends to be... well you get the point.

(I loved RE 3)
Actually, you can select ALL of ONE UNIT on screen by double tapping A on the unit you want... like Double tapping on hornets selects all of the hornets... etc..
But only on that screen.rootbear75 said:
Its is possable to select all of one unit by pressing "select all" then using the trigers to pick one unit type.
But thats fickle.
im sorry you lost your point when you said ss and DC where good dow2 is a great game even if its multiplayer needs patchingChristemo said:
