Anyone heardof this game? Looks awesome...and there's a demo out. I think i'll try it in a bit. Here's some screenshots for a teaser.

All in-game, tho it's highly doubtful that most ppl will be able to crank up the graphics THIS much. :)

There's also a nice but short video clip:

*whistles* Looking nice. Now you all need to send me about £100 each, so I can get a new computer.

Wow, that's like... a mature version of C&C Generals. The details of the units are incredible. Most RTS developers have good looking battlefields but square units once you zoom in. Anything on the release date?

I agree. Like C&C generals. Gamespot has a preview on it...looks interesting. Some of the units are retardedly advanced....why can't they just stick with real-world units? Bleh, we'll see if it ends up being worth a damn. The urban areas look awesome.

The mission buildup and unit actions are interesting, lots of options with enterable buildings but i agree with one person on the gamespot forum its too much aircombat oriented. Or it could be just the demo who knows until retail version becomes available.

Anyone played it already? I saw some positive reviews about this one, but this old machine is off course incapable of playing it.

read some good reviews on it. Seeing as I just got around to playing bloodlines, I think it may be several years before I hit this one. :p
