USA is called WLA etc etc), they also changed some of the units (I believe there are some suicide bombers or such, which they changed).

That is just plain silly. [/b][/quote]
You should see the green blood in Resident Evil... (I better not start ranting about the changes in Return To Castle Wolfenstein or Call of Duty...)

please do start ranting about it , it fascinates me, wasnt moonstone banned in germany?
i guess censorship is the reosen you german guys have come out with such amazingly crazy music over the years, (particuarly your hard techno, digital hardcore and gabba) all of which rule by the way, this isnt a diss. i suppose as you not allowed extreme violence in games you put it into your music. what did they do to wolfenstein, instead of fighting nazis what were you fighting in the german version?

[efthimios]

So, were the nazis motivated by computer games?
How silly.

From what I've hear you should steer clear of Battle For Middle Earth - apparently it's really buggy, unfinished and mediocre, which is a shame after how promising it looked before release.

[Stroggy]

I haven't heard or seen anything of the sort.
The game (Battle for Middle earth) plays great on my computer and is quite enjoyable.
Only some levels are a bit annoying (by the time you realize you've squandered too much money because of sketchy mission objectives its too late and you've got to restart and basically plan the mission ahead)

Take DoW, I've played both of them and Generals were utter crap IMO, the only fun part was blasting up suicide bombers, the funny sounds always cracked me up...
Anyway I really sdon't like todays 3d RTS games, they look, well, ugly to me...(people are bigger than buildings)
The only exception would be Codename: Panzers, that's a beauty...

The problem with Generals is that it didn't make itself any better by taking the piss out of all of the sides, it just offended everyone.

Dawn of War is very, very well made, it's just a shame that the Space Marines talk like robots, when they are always just referred to as speaking in 'clipped tones' (basically accentless). It's a very good game worth of Relic, though.

Good plot in the campaign too, I really enjoyed it.

Ok, guess what, I bought them both. Basically because I discovered a store which had Generals on special offer for €5.

Otherwise I had decided in favour of W40koW after what you guys wrote.

Interesting is what you say, prejudicesucks, because: the store I went to had both the English and the German version of DoW, the German version was rated 16, the English version rated 18. So I asked what the difference was, and they said the only difference was that in the German version the marines talked like accentless robots! I still bought the German version because the English version cost nearly twice as much.

So I'm glad to hear that the marines' voices also suck in the English version, I don't miss anything! :angel:

Thanks for all your advice. k: Of course we can still talk about these games in this thread. :Titan:

Edit: I just played the tutorial and actually I like the voices!!
