The C&C is the best RTS I have ever played. I played the original when I was 5 yo :rolleyes:. It's one of the most addictive games ever.

Well, I'm pretty sure my avatar says it all, but just in case you're retarded, the best RTS is Starcraft, more specifically, Broodwar. I must have logged thousands of hours on that game, and starcraft continues to influence my only activities. No other RTS balanced three unique factions so well.

It's a split between
Conquest: Frontier Wars and Ground Control 2.

Honorable mention:
Star Command Deluxe

It has to be Age Of Empires II: The Age of Kings for me, it was probably the first PC RTS I played. I thought the first Command and Conquer was good, it had a completely different feel to the other RTS around at the time.

I'd have to say Warcraft 3, though I really liked Warhammer 40k: Dawn of War, The battles get so epic.

For me it's either the original Age of Empires or one of the C&C games.

Age of Empires was probably the very first RTS I've played and I spent a lot of time on it, also in multiplayer on LAN with family. I think it was 1998 when I first played the demo and it didn't take long for my dad to buy the full version.

I played the Red Alert 2 demo on PlayStation around the same time. About a year ago I bought C&C: The First Decade and a few months later I bought Tiberium Wars, I still need to play through all the pre-Generals games. I just can't decide which C&C game I like better because they're all so great. C&C, particularly Generals (the first full C&C game I've completed), made me appreciate RTS games a lot more than ever, but it hasn't convinced me to dedicate a bunch of time to build up my RTS skills as I do my FPS skills.

I've played the World in Conflict demo, but I just don't see it being better than good ol' C&C.

I seriously lack any strategic skill to rush or defend from rushers, so after a few losses and no wins while playing against random people online I decided to stick to human vs. AI, or more commonly me and a friend vs. AI.

I think if I had to pick one, as hard as it is to pick, I'll say C&C Tiberium Wars because it gave me some of the most epic battles I've experienced in an RTS.

Hello:

StarCraft is the best RTS I ever played.

Crescent Hawk's Revenge (Predated Dune II actually) and it's more commonly known psuedo sequel "MechCommander", though the argument could be made they are RTT (Real Time Tactical) games.

MechCommander 2 was...fun; but not up to the standards of the first two.

If we're speaking in terms of "greatness" then I'm in agreeance with AOE2. The best... Company of Heroes.

I never liked starcraft... and yes I have played it and own it; I'm not just bagging it because its fun too.
