Doesnt specify the processors and graphics cards very clearly, only THE most important things lol.

Assuming 2.6 pentium 4, minimum graphics card again assuming 6600 or better. 3ghz dual core AMD- probably based on the X2 6000+ rather than a phenom architeture CPU.

The game is built for 360 too, hopefully this will help it run even better on PC with better optimisations

waiting on the reviews for this, though with dawn of war 2 expansion pack coming out, got my hands full.

ThanatosDMC5180d ago

I'm waiting for a demo first since i dont like how much they deviated away from SC1 and FA. I mean, the updated graphics looks great but why did they have to change the economy which was one of the many things that made supcom unique from other RTS? Probably for the casual crowds or for console owners?

Also, the amount of units are lacking. You only have one type of tank, robot, etc. The tank basically also serves as the mobile AA after the upgrade. I wont be able to spam tech2 bombers by the hundreds anymore with a few tech3 bombers...

I'm still indifferent about the fact that they took out the shield generators but instead made building have upgrade shielding capability. I spammed my base full of tech3 shields in FA which were strong enough to outlast tech3 bombing runs or tech3 arty (with t3 engineers repairing the shields).

History of Real-Time Strategy: The Downfall (2004 - 2010)

VGChatz's Taneli Palola: "There's no question that during these years the overall popularity of the genre took a significant hit, as most games within it specialized even further by adding new elements from other types of games into their gameplay loops and consequently became increasingly niche as the years wore on.

However, this doesn't in any way mean that the period was devoid of great games. Quite the contrary, in fact. Arguably some of the greatest RTS titles ever made came out around this time, and much of this was because many developers were increasingly familiar and comfortable with adding new twists and gameplay elements to the familiar formula. As such, even when the genre's popularity dwindled, many studios were still creating excellent and groundbreaking titles almost every year, just for a smaller audience than in years past."

those were fun years red alert star craft command and conquer well when westwood studio made good games before EA brought them like bioware...

Vegamyster1811d ago

Aside from C&C 4, the other C&C's from EA were all good/great. The genre nose dived once Moba's rose in popularity, even Petroglyph Games (ex-Westwood employees) haven't had a hit since Star Wars: Empire at War (2006), all there games got abandoned after launch.

Are the free Xbox Games With Gold titles for March 2016 any good?

Neil writes "The Xbox Games With Gold scheme for March 2016 is nearly in play, bringing four new free games for Xbox One and Xbox 360 owners. But is the program actually worth getting excited about? Are the Games With Gold titles for March 2016 actually any good, or is it just another waste of your precious download limits?

Well, March is most definitely going to be a bit of a slow burner, but it'll finish on a note that is higher than anything we've seen before."

Can't wait to get stuck into Sherlock again, it got lost in my backlog but having it on digital will encourage me to venture back in.

Dewitt2978d ago

Super excited for both as I have never played them. SH especially intrigues me.

UltraNova2977d ago

LOtF is a Dark Souls rip-off, in the good kind of way, albeit far easier ...that said its a pretty decent, yet short power fantasy light RPG with good visuals.

Now that's free its even better! Give it a try!

creeping judas2978d ago

Never felt like playing full price for Lords Of The Fallen, but I will definitely DL that game and play it. And since there seems to be a lot interest in Sherlock Holmes, I guess I will try that as well.

PS3Freak2978d ago

I'm playing it right now, it's actually a very fun game. Very rewarding when you figure out how to kill an enemy for the first time.
