Which Game Should I get?

By donnor11 on October 19, 2008 11:38:08 PM from Sins of a Solar Empire Forums Sins of a Solar Empire Forums

I've been recently looking for a new game and I've been having trouble deciding whether I should get Red Alert 3 or World in Conflict.  Any suggestions?

btw: I have been leaning a little more towards World in Conflict.

i hate the beta of RA3...its dumb...i've played the demo of WiC and i liked it but never got it.  so i'd go with WiC. besides, WiC is already out...isn't RA3 not out yet? correct me if i'm wrong...college isolates me...hehe

WiC is a great game. But their community is in a state of flux seeing that they had been dropped by Activision and the Xpack indefinetely put on hold. While I'm quite certain they will find a publisher, the community has been lagging ever since. WiC beeing a very online multiplayer focused game, i think community is a very big factor. I'm speaking as a former WiC player myself. I sold my copy.

RA3 while not out looks like it will have quite a big community. Where I'm at, it seems it got a lot of pre orders and there is even a launch event threwn by EA. Big question is how long will the community last.

I would suggestion any non-DRM game, which means not RA3. If it wouldn't have it ...

i just can give you my experiences with RA3. the game is not bad, but the factor of DRM and the possibility to just install it 5 times because you dont buy the game, what you buy is in fact the OK to install the game 5 times and then get a new key or load by ordering it over a hotline (which is not free)... that and the point of SecoRom are 2 things because of which i would say, dont buy any games of any publisher as long as  SecuRom is used by them or any other DRM like that. Good by Farcry 2. (only 1 installation as i heard)

I can now afford both due to a recent gift.  Thanks for the suggestions, though.
