Pros Good graphics, Straight to the action.
Cons This game requires an intensive computer to run, even on minimum.
Recommended it? Yes

Company of Heroes is one of those games that can alter a genre, like what Half-Life did to FPS games. The game throws in many aspects from the nomenclature RTS by having capture points (to gain resources), reinforcing units when they are depleted, giving you general powers to use, etc.

Pros Graphics, sound, and replay value is high.
Cons Connections get lost alot during Multiplayer.
Recommended it? Yes

Obviously you are reading this review because you MUST like RTS games and therefore are wondering if this RTS with only 2 sides is worth buying.

Pros Fascinating and massively entertaining look at history
Cons The military system really needs improvement
Recommended it? Yes

Civilization IV is the latest iteration of the redoubtable, very profitable computer game franchise from Firaxis. Everything is bigger, better, and prettier and this game will provide many, many hours of game play. It's addictive. Really addictive. Like the Morrowind games, something I really had...
