Supreme Commander is an absolute gem of a game, taking the formula of Total Annihilation and scaling it up with 3 distinct factions, 3 tiers of exponentially more powerful buildings and units and massive show stopping super weapons.

Despite this positive review I do have to say, if you just want to play Supreme COmmander, the standalone expansion Forged Alliance is better in every way, a 4th faction, more units, a MUCH better UI and controls, its a real glow up.

However I still think its worth it to get the base game for the 3 faction campaigns which both teach you how to play the game and introduce you to the setting & factions of the SupCom universe. Its by no means high art, its a bit on the cheesy side but I like it, not just the nostalgia talking I just beat it recently and quite liked it :D
