Question of the Week: “What is your favorite strategy game?”
As a huge fan of Showtime’s Dexter, we’re excited (afraid?) to hear they’re making a game in its image. We actually pay for an Amazon Unbox because we’re too cheap to buy Showtime for all their other shows. A Dexter game could be killer on the PC and iPhone.
My favorite strategy game is Total Annihilation so many units were released for that game. Skirmishes were insane, with tons of units blasting away at each other from air, land and sky.
And yes, I backed Planetary Annihilation.
