@MrDARKKNIGHT1000 Yeah, CoH and DoW would have been on my list, over world in conflict and Homeworld 2. Maybe starcraft, or age of empires I, if you're after the classics - best of all time. However, they are all good games on this list. @Forkester your opinion is noted and respected. Kudos for sharing.
i would of definitely had rise of nations, medieval 2 and stronghold crusader somewhere on here, although i haven't actually played any of these except for age of empires and empire :/
@333theinvincible homeworld 2 has one of the best campaign out there(actually the best for me but i'm not biased,didn't play them all).Unfortunately the AI in singleplayer ain't that good
@333theinvincible it's ok,but not enough to be in my top5 list.I can't remember if it has a campaign or not,if it does i didn't finish it.A single player game with the biggest map can last hours or days.The strategy is to build as many capital ships as you can(forgot on how they are called,but they are kinda like heroes units with skills) the rest troops to sacrifice when the capital ships are fleeing lol.Not really a strategy game.But it may good to play it on and off
@333theinvincible homeworld is definitely better strategy wise,and more fun.You can loose if you massproduce the same unit.The problem is that it has low replay value.Once the campaign is finished and you play single player a couple of times,you will prbly stop.Solar empire can be played a game here and there like once a week or month and depending on person can last longer with more hours put in
@333theinvincible get settlers 4 if u find it anywhere "settlers IV" in my opinion the best stragety game EVER idk if u can still buy it in any stores but its such a great game there are 3 races 2 choose Vikings, Romans, and Majas and to build buildings u need stone/wood n to get wood u need 2 chop down a tree ect.. its a blast that game so go check it out Settlers IV if u never heard of it
jesus christ starcraft 2 should be in there and where is star craft 2 blah blah blah.. fuck you morons...we hate starcraft 2...its in the fucking future and that sucks!! we like games put in the past not the freaking future!! fucking asians...
Those games can't entertain more than 1-2 weeks each. Starcraft is far the biggest of all strategy games. It should be on the list, and if you never played it, then you havn't played the best strategy game ;)
@chessmess117 Are you joking? HAha that game got game of the year hella times. You just dont like it cause you probably suck at it. It's like saying you hate Halo, nobody hates Halo your either good at it or your not and people don't like that.
@95350seagod My brother has sc2 (ive never played the first) and after experimenting around with the factions for about an hour, I hit online gaming on random faction and won almost half of my games. I don't suck at it, I just find the game dry with micro strategy and macro tactics, which in my opinion, is stupid.
@chessmess117 well I could careless, and Starcraft 1 DID get game of the year. SC2 may not be good but it doesn't "suck" its not THAT bad. I wouldn't fret about it to much, lots of stupid people don't care for RTS games. It's alright. Also don't be to proud of beating people online, they stink try playing against those Korean's who play the first and second as a sport. Play Starcraft 1 and see why people even got the 2nd one.
starcraft is good, but u cant play offline (only mission) , and when u play online, people go to atck u in the beggining of match, so its pretty boring
@ParaShizo seems like you didn't even watch the video and you talk... WATCH THE VIDEO ASSHOLE AND YOU'LL SEE THE ARE LOTS OF CLIPS OF THE GAMES! SEARCH BEFORE YOU SPEAK SMARTASS MORONSSS!
@maixck Starcraft is a competitive game, but it sucks. It has no strategy involved just whoever knows their build order and who can have the fastest APM wins the game. The only 3 races in the games have no strengths or weaknesses which makes for a lack of strategy. A good game makes strengths and weaknesses, not all equal.
Personaly with all these "best strategy games" lists - there is no winning unless it had over 100 videos showing every strategy game that someone once liked and then again everyone would have an issue of which should be ranked 1 or 5. Should just disable "ratings" for videos like this.
Company of Heroes! Where did you put COMPANY OF HEROES?! :D C'mon its a great ww2 theme game. its SUPER fun in LAN. Especially with some good buddies :)
Homeworld 2? you have got to be joking compared to the original it was awful, you should have the original at number one or at least higher then the piece of crap sequel.
@joemama2455 Rome: Total War and Medieval 2: Total War are better though, but thats just a product of the times they take place in. Colonial-era battles just aren't as interesting.
does anyone know of a game similar to empire total war but more modernized? like away from the 17-1800s? not sure if i am entirely making sense but i hope im at least understood
