TBH, I think C&C3 will be better than SC. SC is a nice game and all, but jesus god almighty, the lag and resource eating is insane.

Originally by: Dark Shikari SC isn't that laggy. Get yourself a Core 2 DUo
I don't see how an EA game like C&C 3 could possibly hold a candle to the goodness of Supreme Commander.
Because when you're as big a failure as EA, you eventually fail at something so badly that you fail to fail, and thus, something good is made.

I don't see what's so great about SC in single or multiplayer.
Multiplayer ends up with desyncs 99% of the time, even on a LAN, and taking minutes to reach someones base is not my idea of fun.
Espeically when you have crap like t3 arties, which on some maps, can reach everything.

James Earl Jones was Vader's voice, and the GDI guy in Tiberian Sun. In C&C3 it's the SST guy, whose name escapes me, and the guy from the first C&C I cannot recall who the hell he is.
Oh, and Kane is played by Kieron. If you don't believe me, find a picture of kieron, and compare it to Kane.
Yes, that's right, CCP is a front for the brotherhood of NOD. Now I've let out their secret and we must sto

Want to know why it desyncs?
Because the people you're playing with have different patch versions
No they don't.

I think more people will play C&C3 because it doesn't require $1500 of hardware to run preperly, and even then, you get the occasional 2-3 second freezes.

Originally by: Ket Halpak I love the C&C series (except generals, you f***ed big time ea!).
The cheesy acting was the best in C&C, especially Kari Whurer in Red Alert 2 and Yuris Revenge! The actor that played Yuri, a well done performance!
Getting the original Kane ( i can never remember the actors name) in to redo the character is gold. IMO no one would ever be able to live up to the evil that is kane.
My eve life will suffer for a few weeks when c&c 3 is out!
I also cant belive that this thread is 2 pages long without a mention of Homeworld!
It's not hard to get the same guy to play KAne, he directs for all the C&C games.

TA was quite possibly the worst RTS I've ever played.
"Hey we're being shot, oh btw we can all shoot further than we can see, so you have to build extra **** to let us shoot where the fog of war is still sitting."
Oh yeah, fun game, gotta love crap like that, especially since it doesn't affect the computer-controlled units at all.

You do realise that right now 1000 angry fanbois are closing in on this post? :P
The thousand fanbois of the TA army decend upon me? THEIR FLAMES SHALL BLOCK OUT THE SUN!
Regardless, Westwood made, by far, the best RTS duo ever in the history of RTS games. I probably shouldn't include Spellforce because they are Adventure/RTS, but they're still simply awesome, and combine the two genres well.
TA was quite possibly the worst 'bigger is better' RTs I've ever played. SC isn't quite as bad, but I was playing yesterday, and simply got my land base to teir3 quickly, build a few units, and moved them at my friend's base. The mobile arties took out his defenses, and units that came to pop those got killed by the tanks guarding the arties. He didn't send any aircraft, but I had defense for those(a tier3 engineer spewing out a line of t1 turrets. Then, 2 hours into the next game, we desynced, on a LAN. Fun...
While C&C and C&C:RA were easily the best. Sure you had your mammoth tanks which were good vs everything, but they were a pain to build, and their missiles, while nice vs infantry (orginal C&C) took forever to refire, and a small group of rocket soldiers could wtfpwn you while keeping away from your tank treads.
edit: I do like the large scale warfare of SC though, but goddamn, traveling time is a killer.
