Yeah, that list sucked even if XCOM took the title. But lists are boring anyway, the reasons being....

  • 1. Lists are so last gen...
    2. Lists are so next gen...
    3. Yeah, I'm no fun...

If you play Starcraft with good players who don't rush battlecruisers because they've got cunning, less-expensive and time-consuming plans, then Starcraft can be challenging and "thought-provoking." Same issue with C&C. It depends on how you play it and with whom IMO.

The list is pretty good, aside from the fact that their order of games is screwed up. Also, why the fuck is Simcity up there but not Simcity 4? Fuck fuck fuck Simcity 4 is (and always will be, sadly) the best city-building game out there.

Yeah no good player ever even makes battlecruisers, from what I understand. Carriers actually do happen in high level play but they're incredibly rare. I'm going to have to say that Starcraft is easily a more advanced game than C&C ever will be, especially since people have taken Starcraft's metagame to heights that no other RTS will probably ever see.

Boxer made them once, had a transport full of medics too so when they got plague'd he just unloaded them & restored. Won him the game.

But well, he's not called The Emperor for nothin
