I'm surprised by the lack of love for World in Conflict. It was basically an RTS game for action game fans... I thought it would be more successful. It wasn't as strategic as your typical RTS (I suppose it's more of a real-time-tactical game), but damn it was fun.
It's a pity that Massive Entertainment got eaten by Ubisoft and put to work on their popular franchises (Assassin's Creed, Far Cry). Although I just read "On August 6, 2008, Activision Blizzard put up Massive Entertainment for sale after the merger of Activision and Vivendi Games and the subsequent internal reorganization", so I guess Activision Blizzard are just as much to blame, for not realising they were sitting on a good thing.
Also, despite the team long being shut down, someone could've mentioned the wondrous creation that was Sacrifice.
