I strongly recommend anything from the Homeworld Series: Homeworld, Homeworld: Catacylsm or Homeworld2. Best RTS's i've ever played. I'd personnally start with the first one, which is by far the best (gameplay and graphics wise, Homeworld 2 has the edge, but HW's story of desert outcasts treking across space back to their long forgotten home is a million times better than the hole ridden, overblown plots of the other two.)...
Mind you, i couldn't be certain that you'd pick them up and instantly love them. You have to be able to "think in 3D", and the interfaces are alledgedly confusing to some (no probs here). The demos can still be found on the net, though Homeworld 1's wasn't really revealing at all (the missions in it ammounted to training, and the damned thing stops when the enemies actually appear!!!)
hmm, what else. oh yes! Homeworld was so good, a brought a friend a copy . and, aside from various moans about Black & White, it's the only game i ever post in this sub-forum about
