Genres and Games

I've done a similar thread for movies.

Which is your favourite computer game in each genre?

For me:

Real-Time Strategy: Total Annihilation or the original Command & Conquer (it was very, very good for its time)

Turn-Based Strategy: Civilization (any of the Civ games, except for Call to Power I and II)

I've just mentioned strategy games for the time being.

RTS: Dune 2000

Turn-Based: Sid Mier's Alpha Centauri/Alien Crossfire

Adventure: 7th Ghost and Riven

RPG: Diablo 2

FPS: Star Trek Voyager: Elite Force

That's about it, Moose, maybe we should get together and do a PBEM or something. :)

No, the 90 units prevents massing, wich prevents strategy(massing=no strategy). The 90 food cap is nothing to get angry about. It allows more strategy, and makes u think more than ne of those other games. And of course, if E:BFD had a 90 food cap it would be obsourd. You know why? A unit in E:BFD doesnt take much out of your economy, and can die in a split second. But War3 1 unit can throw off ur economy, yet the unit itself can last the whole game without dying. Even the weakest unit in Wc3 will take time to kill, unlike E:BFD. So in terms of food limit, Every 1 unit in Wc3 = Every 3-5 units in E:BFD
