If this is going to be like TA, it could really be something special.

They chose a terrible name for it though. :p :D

Maybe it's because Chris Taylor was looking for an excuse to work in a Secret Coke Machine level? Now you can fight the true evil of the universe like the real Supreme Commander!

The article says great graphics, but they look pretty mediocre to me.

Looks interesting...the RTS genre has sort of quieted down after C&C Generals and WarCraft III arrived on the scene.  I remember the crazy time period after C&C Red Alert and before Generals....there were millions (thousands?) of RTS games around and available...most of them were mediocre or craptacular.  But this guy knew what he was doing.

Definently old news, ive been on top of the whole TA scene since i was 10. Posted about this many times before.

I like the name, may not sound cool, but makes it easy enough to connect it to Total Annhilation without any feelings of abandonment...

*cough*

ROFL! I thought the same thing (DS) when I read the title ;)

My friend told me about this a while back - I don't care if it's old news because the dev time is gonna be forever!

The scale is just ridiculous - It's from You-Can-See-The-Paint-Scratchs level to Geostationary Orbit level!

My main worry is the control interface - TA's was insanely complex but strangely intuitive and I found myself queuing up unit orders for the entire battle quite quickly ;)
If they can pull that off again without making it ludicrously complicated then the game will rule.

And it has two words that I have not seen in a single modern PC game worth mentioning:

Co-operative Play!!!

If they really put that in, I will buy this game! (Being able to go through the campaign in multiplayer would ROCK!)

As RTS' go 'tho, the bar it has to beat right now is WH40k: Dawn of War, which is currently my most played RTS (Next two being StarCraft and TA ;)) - I just got the expansion, and dear god the Baneblade is just the most fantastically fun piece of highly destructive hardware I've crushed my foes with for a looong time...

It's just so pretty when the main cannons fire... weeee BLAMO!
