So far so good with cnc3. I’m really enjoying the old school feel to it 
CnC3 has quick gameplay as far as building up and attacking goes. If nothing else it is worth the single player experience. I’m enjoying this a lot more than I did Supreme Commander… SupCom just seemed really too massive and maps take way too long imo. At least with CnC3 it is fast, fun, and pleasant to look at.
I haven’t really experienced the game too much yet, mainly just the single player with a bit of LAN action here and there. Definitely takes you back to the old days of the genre though!
Stalker is definitely a great Free Roam FPS game. Recently got out of a lab that really creeped me out but it isn’t ‘too creepy.’ By that I’m comparing it to Doom 3 which I felt was a bit too creepy to really ‘enjoy’ 
.
Best part about Stalker is the atmosphere for me. The first ‘wow’ I had in the game was the first time I experienced night time with rain and lightning. The shadows on the building beside me would be outlines of the trees that were all around and they danced on the outside wall of the building as the lightning would strike each time… Really thought it was a great touch. The wind during the daytime (while the leaves blowing around do clip through some other textures) is also a nice touch.
The balistics in the game take a bit to get used to because in the begining it takes a ton of bullets to down a guy unless you can hit him in the head. However, the actual sound is amazing plus the fact that you can basically only take as many his as they can. If they shoot you in the head, it hurts. In the begining don’t forget that you are a Rookie and most enemies are Veteran or better!
Random info on the two games. Supreme Commander is a genre defining game but it didn’t really keep me involved for long. I think it needs to be more quick paced .
Anywho, spam thread ftw!
