Emperor: Battle for Dune

webword writes "Westwood Studios has announced that Emperor: Battle for Dune has gone gold and will ship June 12 in North America. The game looks great. Get the screenshots, original music tracks, movies (MPG format), and desktop theme. I'm not a Dune fanatic, but I have to say that this game looks damn good. (I couldn't find any news on a Linux port. Argh!)"

    I already have Myth II, but this would really make my day! Dune II was the first and only game I got hooked on for real. I remember playing it 3 days straight!! Yep, the Atreides, Harkonnen and Ordos house campaigns in that order. Of course I was ill for the next 2 days... must had something to do with monitor radiation.. dunno..

    Bring it on!! ... please?!

  2. 3D in RTS games... by DESADE · · Score: 4

    Does anyone else besides me question whether we need 3d in RTS games. I for one, think these new 3D strategy games look much worse than their 2D counterparts. I loved Dune 2000 and the original Dune 2, but this game looks plastic to me.
