| Kane Gets Patched, Weekend of Wrath Kicks off |  | Command & Conquer 3: Kane’s Wrath has just got patched to version 1.01 and, strangely, Electronic Arts feels like celebrating. I call this strange because, in my humble opinion, no game should require patching and, if it does, there would be no reason for celebrations to be held, since it is only common sense to fix something people have paid for. But EA is celebrating and, if we manage to get over the reason behind this week ... [read more >>] | | 10 July 2008, 13:06GMT | (c) 2008 Softpedia |

| Sword of the Stars Gets New Update |  | We all know that strategy games should have the longest life cycles in the gaming industry since they are about... strategy, you know, and not visuals or other eye-catchy stuff.

| Strange, War Leaders: Clash of Nations Still Needs Publishers |  | There are moments like this one when I really can't understand the mechanism that makes the entire gaming industry work. We have tons of at least below average games released all over the world on a monthly basis, yet some games that really look great, seem great and couldn't be less than great have problems finding publishers. It's the case of War Leaders: Clash of Nations from the unknown (yet) developers Enigma ... [read more >>] | | 28 March 2008, 18:06GMT | (c) 2008 Softpedia |
| Warhammer 40,000: Soulstorm |  | There's war and there's total war. There are places where the life of one individual is worth something and places where the same life is worth nothing at all.

The universe of Warhammer 40,000, the space translation of the Warhammer fantasy universe, always falls into the latter c ... [read more >>] | | 17 March 2008, 10:08GMT | (c) 2008 Softpedia |

| Stronghold Crusader Extreme Comes with Over 10,000 Units on Screen! |  | I still remember playing the first RTS title – Dune 2. Although it was a great game, you were only able to build about 30 units and that was all. Still, things haven't progressed as we would've liked since we still have games that limit the number of units one can build in the game, even though this limit is a bit bigger now: usually about 90. On the other hand, we had Rome Total War (we're picking it since it is a ... [read more >>] | | 05 March 2008, 04:43GMT | (c) 2008 Softpedia |

| Try Being a Demigod |  | In some sense, all strategy games let you become a "god". You tower well above the battlefield, in immaterial form so that no one sees you and you get to influence the minds of all those below you by issuing left and right click commands. Forget omniscience and omnipresence, omnipotence is what being a "god" is all about. And recently the ... [read more >>] | | 28 February 2008, 04:52GMT | (c) 2008 Softpedia |
