I mostly play Quake3 and 4, so I guess my lable would be FPS gamer.
I tried an RTS game – Command and Conquer (C&C), and liked it but wasn't ready to spend $40 on it.
Now I heard about Company of Heroes : Opposing Fronts and that it was a good RTS game.
It seems like it is totally different from C&C in the sense that it is a WWII game, but is it basically the same in the level of play?
I mean after 2 hours of playing C&C, I felt like I could play the game and had fun, with Company of Heros, is it similar like that, or is it a game that takes day to get the hang of it?
The reason is that I was looking at getting a 8600 GTS card and I found this one:
Newegg.com - XFX PVT84GUDE3 GeForce 8600GTS 256MB 128-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 HDCP Video Card - Retail
It is around the same price for a similar card from eVGA and BFG, but it comes bundled with Company of Heroes – which is a $39 saving then if I but the game separately, and if the COH is similar in skill, ease of picking it up and as entertaining as Comand and Conqure then I am in!
Oh, the game bundle info is here:
XFX
I wonder when XFX will start bundling the girl with a card, then I would buy a pair!!
