Dune 2 Honored by GameSpy

[Gobalopper]

GameSpy has a new inductee into its Hall of Fame, Dune 2. Games are judged on, "their brilliant gameplay (which makes them playable to this day), or because they innovated in such a way to reshape gaming as we know it." Below is a caption from the article:

Dune II proved to be so legendary, that Westwood Studios went back to the game and created Dune 2000, adding multiplayer options and rebuilding the engine, but only with limited success and appeal. Going back and replaying the original Dune 2 proves that the gameplay isn't quite up to the standards of the modern real-time strategy games, but as the first PC RTS, Dune 2 opened the floodgates for a field of imitators, thus earning it a place in PC gaming history
