another game I didn't know much about till the beta arrived, I got selected, and was hooked, it's and RTS, and I've never liked RTS's before, but it got me interested. it's like bf2 for the RTS genre, set in 1989 when the cold war was supposed to end, it didn't, there's a demo out now, and it's very addictive, check it out
