Starcraft was one of the first games i ever owned, (and these days ps2 broken, so computers are my primary game station..)

So RTS's most of the time:
Great Warcraft 3 fan, Rise of Nations, Age of Empires 2, oh and DoW (upto burning crusade)

(does spellforce: the order of Dawn count as an RTS.. or RPG?? hmmmmmmm...)

eh i played age of empire games and empire earth to hell and back when i was younger, loved em to death, but i absolutely hate the competitiveness/vibe i get from alot of pro-rts players so i tend to avoid them quite a bit (not saying all rts players are, just alot i know irl and some that are very extremist on interwebz)

personally i prefer Turn based 100x more, but i'll flick on a rts every once in a while if i'm bored.

My friend copied his version of the age of empires game and gave it to me.

Only RTS I have ever played, but my favorite RTS ever.

Yes but they are slightly ruined by sucking at them and with a lot of RTS's playing on easy means the game plays out in the same way every time; build up then steamroll.

RTS in general gets a "meh" from me.

I've always had more fun with turn-based strategy (See Civilization, or Heroes of Might and Magic).

Only on the large scale though. Final Fantasy Tactics? Awful.

I have been addicted to pretty much every big budget rts that has come out since the mid 90's.

I think I just like the idea of being the boss of that many people.

I love Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2. My late older brother turned me onto the game way back when it first came out and I still love playing it. I just the AI was a little more intelligent. -_-

There's nothing more thrilling than watching your Kirov Airships approach an enemy base or sending 10 prism tanks to eradicate the enemy! >:-D
Iv'e been playing RTS for a long time and a good chunk of the C&C series is my fave RTS from old C&C to Red Alert 3 which i still play these days along with Generals ZH+mod(Generals Shockwave).

Nothing is more worse on RA3 than having these obliterate your base from afar.

I think RTS games are good games and is the most skill reliant genre. Problem is, I'm a terrible gamer so can't play them to save my life. So do I like them? I guess I'm just neutral.

I do like to play an RTS every now and then.

Makes a nice change from all the RPG's and shooters I play.

I still maintain that World in Conflict is the best RTS game ever made. Just saying.

I would hesitate to call the Total War series RTS. Much of the action takes place turn-based style - I've spent more time poring over the campaign map than I have commanding my troops in real-time.

One of the first games I ever played was C&C Tiberian Dawn, when I was like 6-7. I own almost every C&C games but the latest and maybe 1 or 2 others. I love them..... not all RTS games but alot.

And may I bring up the undisputed king of all RTS games. Total Annihilation. And it's fan made cousin Total Annihilation: Spring. Spring is a 3D gaming engine developed by some 3rd party group for TA and some other games have used it. I'd love to play it or even the original again but I'm on a fritzy Mac. Getting Windows when I get a new comp.

I like RTS, but I've been stuck in the era of Dune and Warcraft RTS. I liked Emperor:Battle for Dune and Warcraft 2 the most out of what I've played.

Nope, can't stand 'em. I like competitive gaming, and absolutely love the fighting genre, but I loathe RTS games.
RTS isent competitive?! dont know where you got that from but mp RTS is about as competitive as you can get in gaming and e-sport! in sp RTS though i can agree with you.

Or are you just like Yahtzee? you dont like mp unless they are in the same room as you?
