Dawn of War 2

is good. It's actually more fun without the base building and such, and the new Last Stand mode is quite fun. Who has it?

Got it when I got the THQ pack. Really loving the singleplayer, much better than the last DoWs.

I bought it and it should arrive by this coming weekend  ;D

Single player is great especially on Co-op. Last Stand is pretty cool although it got old pretty fast having only one map and the waves becoming predictable. I still like the first Dawn Of War more than this one but I can see how it might appeal to people that there's more to building a shit load of unit producing buildings and than massing as many Defilers/Invis Chaos Marines or Killa-kans possible.

Well this one you actually have to flank and use cover, instead of using orks and just using the one upgrade that makes your standard unit cost 0 and send in millions of those and vehicles

I've had it since before it came out, but due to fucked up vista problems i have not been able to play it until just recently, unfortunately my computer is able to start it, but not able to run it. It lags out before i can even click the options button to lower the resolution to bare minimum.

I have it.  The campaign & last stand are really fun, but I'm too scared to hop online since I'm not much of an RTS guy (bought the game to co-op with a friend).

As long as you utilize cover and everything you should be good, it can make for some really good matches. It's nowhere near as steep a learning curve as other RTS games imo

With the lack of complicated tech trees it is fairly easy to get into.

But are you required to have eyes everywhere. Its a really stressful 15 min game from bottom to top.
