Black And White Review [PC]
Some called it the "game of the year", the game that sets the "New standard of PC Games". I wish I could concur, but unlike those caught in the rush and excitement of it all, I tend to disagree. It comes down to what you like from a strategy game,......

Empire Earth Review [PC]
The first RTS game I got was Dune 2 on the Megadrive, then when I got my PC ‘Command & Conquer’ came into my life. For years my interest in this genre has rapidly diminished with games that merely boast more units, and better visuals than the......

Star Trek: Birth Of The Federation Review [PC]
This game has been around for a long while, and is hardly breaking technological barriers anymore. The game may be old, but don’t let that discourage you. Underneath the old age lies a commendable game, which is still every bit as fun as was......

Hyped as one of the best strategy games the PC has to offer, taking over two years to produce, and the successor to the classic Warcraft II: Tides of Darkness, Warcraft III takes us back to the land of Azeroth and all the swords and sorcery......

Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds Review [PC]
Most of the time when popular movies come out you usually get a load of crappy merchandise along with it. Sometimes (but less often than in the first case) you do get stuff that isn’t that bad, and you put on a brave face to your mates and the......

Stronghold Crusader Review [PC]
Stronghold Crusader is a game that I heard hardly anything about before taking the plunge (released back in September 2002). There it sat on the shelf, the front design of the box not appearing particularly inspiring, looking for a home. Further......

Star Trek: Starfleet Command III Review [PC]
Although being a fan of Star Trek it must be noted that I don’t particularly trust the franchise when it comes to games. More often than not you look forward to a game months in advance only for it to be extremely low quality and an obvious......

Hearts of Iron Review [PC]
People who know me personally accept that I am a bit of a nerd, I certainly won’t deny it. I've loved strategy games ever since I played Risk and Chess when I was ten. Recently, I’ve also become interested in the history of World War 2, which......

Soldiers of Anarchy Review [PC]
A lot of the time a game just appears out of nowhere, and as quickly as it appears it disappears again into some kind of lost and forgotten gaming void. These titles have no hype, little publicity, and are made by small time developers who crave......

Republic: The Revolution Review [PC]
Republic: The Revolution will divide players into two camps. Those who will cry “I don’t get it, it SUCKS” and those who will try it, then understand and enjoy it. The later should be praised and worshipped as our intellectual superiors,......

Ground Control II: Operation Exodus Review [PC]
Ground Control was released four years ago and was a cult RTS game. While it literally horrified many loyal RTS fans by removing the traditional need to build bases and accumulate resources Ground Control impressed many by focussing on combat......

Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War Review [PC]
RTS’s in my opinion haven’t really changed much over the years. I’m fed up with the conventional “Build a base, amass a huge army, storm the enemy base” style of approach. I yearn for something different, so look to games like Ground......

Rome: Total War Review [PC]
Ever since I played Shogun in 2000 I was hooked with the Total War series. Here was a strategy gaming series I wanted, huge realistic battles involving thousands of troops, no base building or resource collecting, and large scale empire building.......

Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle-Earth Review [PC]
I love the Lord of the Rings films although I wouldn't go as far as to say that I’m a true Tolkien fan-boy as I’ve only seen the movies and I’ve only read part of the books. Nevertheless when I first heard of The Battle for Middle-Earth I......

Command and Conquer: The First Decade Review [PC]
Whilst Command and Conquer certainly wasn’t the first ever RTS game, it was most definitely the title brought the genre to mass popularity on the PC. It has launched a thousand imitations and a host of highly successful sequels for its author......
