I want to play a RTS (like Company of Heroes) where the units are real people, who are playing the game like a FPS.

Does any such game exist?

I suffer from a bit of 360 streaming/media library update variance too. I find that restarting the PC is often helpful, along with killing any software that might be chewing up CPU cycles.

There was, but I can't remember the name and I think it failed miserably.

I think Savage fits the bill. No idea if anyone plays it though. I played it when it first came out, but it didn't really seem to take off.

In today's edition of "video game awards are stupid":

I open up IGN's awards for 360, the VERY FIRST ONE is "Mass Effect 2" for Best Story. WTF?? The story was the WORST part about that game. It was terrible compared to the first ME game. **** you, IGN.

EDIT: How the **** is Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood nominated for "Best Sci-Fi Game"? Does it go all System Shock 2 at the end or something? I haven't played AC2 or 3 yet so I don't know if the whole future/past thing somehow effects the gameplay, but the AC1 I know is basically free-roaming Prince of Persia.

Why do you rant about a review of a game you know nothing about? Seriously, wtf? Do you think you can make a point by just making stuff up now?

While I think you are totally right with your opinions about reviews, stuff like this only makes you appear just like one more fanatic rigged theorist.

EDIT: Just opened the IGN awards, and they are only for 2010 games. You have a 2010 game that has a better story in your opinion? Tell us. But I really don't see wtf ME1 has to do with 2010 awards. The fact that ME2<ME doesn't mean it can't have the best story of 2010.

Dude, you seriously need to chill about this thing.

What's your problem? I made it perfectly clear in my post that I was open to being corrected if AC2 and 3 went on some sci-fi tangent that was completely absent from AC1, which is decidedly not a sci-fi game. If I'm out of line in assuming that games titled "Assassin's Creed 2" and "Assassin's Creed 3" are similar in style to a game titled "Assassin's Creed" which was made by the same company, then I wholeheartedly apologize!

Re: ME's story being better than ME2's not disqualifying ME2 from having the best story of the year: you're right. I did not think ME2's story was very good even in isolation, though.

isnt AC about someone who goes into a computer program or something, seems kinda sci fi.

It's so completely tangential to the gameplay though. If the next Prince of Persia game started off with the prince being some everyday guy transported back in time to find himself in the middle of some 2000-year-old-school Middle Eastern drama and the rest of the game played out like every other PoP game in history, I wouldn't suddenly classify it as a sci-fi game...just a standard PoP action game with a bizarre story setup.

Anyone around these parts still play any of the Age of Empires games? I was thinking about starting an AOE thread but wasn't sure if anyone outside me and a few of my friends even had interest anymore.

All the Assassin's Creed games have been a big pile of **** anyway. By far the most overrated new-gen series and it's not even close to close. Bad, repetitive gameplay with no substance and clunky animations. Yeah, I hate them for sure. Yes, I've played them both.

Tribes was kinda like this back in the day... god that game ruled so hard. Jetpacks.. Custom Load outs, different weapons, vehicles, and a slightly wonky commander/rts approach like your talking about with a map view where you could give teammates orders and such.

So far ahead of its time!

Finally finished my first playthroughts of Dead Space and Portal.

Next up: Mirror's Edge, Mass Effect, or GTAIV.

You surely envy me getting to play through these games for the first time right?

Well Mirror's Edge didn't get great reviews for consoles and the demo sucked, GTA4 isn't all it's cracked up to be and I still have the expansions to play anyway, and Mass Effect I haven't played yet either.

Other than that, yea I'm quite jealous.

I was more stressing the fact that I get to play great games for the first time because I'm too cheap to ever buy 'em new.

But yeah, if they're letdowns, then it sucks. I'll hope for the best!
