Gameplay that was outdated compared to other RTSes even at release.ġ2) Guild Wars - not played it, so can't really comment.ġ1) Civilisation IV - frankly, the Civ games have never done it for me. Command and Conquer with a slight graphical facelift, but none of the production values that made the very early installments in the series great. No thanks.ġ3) Command and Conquer: Generals - Oh god no. However, I will grant you that, with two solid expansions and a huge mass of mods available, NWN has grown way beyond what originally came out of the box.ġ4) Max Payne 2 - Can be completed in about 4-6 hours by an average player and has no replay value.
The sequel is massively better in this respect. On the one hand, the game as released, straight out of box, is pretty damned poor, with an original campaign that falls waaaaay short of the usual Bioware standards. Unfortunately, if you look further down.ġ5) Neverwinter Nights - ooooh, tricky one. If this were the only one on the list, I could have been perfectly happy. I'm not quite sure how TFA manages to claim the original is better.ġ6) Medal of Honour Allied Assault - I guess you have to include one of the WW2 shooters and I guess this one is the obvious candidate. It was definitely the best iterration of the series. Very solid game.ġ7) Unreal Tournament 2004 - this made me go "hmm" at first, but on balance, I think I could live with this here.
sure, the Xbox version was great, even if its own sequel does comprehensively out-shine it, but the PC version always felt like a nasty hack at best.ġ8) Rome: Total War - reasonable pick and probably in about the right place on the list. Graphics are dated quite badly now, so a sequel wouldn't go amiss.ġ9) Halo - w. I may even have moved it a little higher up the list. It's a nice concept and still a fun game to play. thoughts on each of these in turn:Ģ0) Rise of Nations - yeah, ok, this seems fair enough.
