I've long been a fan of RTS games, from way back enjoying the original Command & Conquer games, right up to the present day offerings of games like Company of Hero's. Well all I can say is move over, there's a new daddy in town, a new top dog, king of hill. Click the images to below to see the full size versions.
This game is simply stunning. Using a familar control system to other RTS games you'll soon feel at ease giving orders, and the visuals and cinematic's are spectacular.
The level of polish that has gone into this game is obvious, from camera movement to voice talent, it all just works beautifully.
The game worlds are so detailed I often found myself wandering off following a group of helicopters as they went about their business rather that doing what I was supposed to be. Everything in this game is on another level to what we've seen before.
Even something as simple as the common airdrop/resupply action is a joy to watch with its movie like cinematic's as the transport galaxy/starlifter transport aircraft swoops in and delivers its payload.
It all feels fantastically real, with aircraft seeming to have correct real world physics, and pyrotechnics to rival that of even the most expensive Hollywood blockbusters.
The game feels like a blend of Battlefield 2 meets Command & Conquer, and as you can tell I was absolutely blown away by World in Conflict.
I guarantee you at several points during playing the demo you will actually be saying "oh wow" and "jeez" out loud, I know I did.
