Product Description
Supreme Commander is role-playing and strategy on a massive scale. It's the 37th century and three races have battled for 100 years. This "Infinite War" is leaving the galaxy in ruins. This devastating conflict must end, and you've decided to be the one who ends it. Step into a leadership position and guide your race through incredible struggles - and their aftermath. Under your strategic command, only one faction will reign supreme. Will you be victorious and elevate your race to domination? Or will you lead them into defeat and ultimate extinction? Supreme Commander establishes a breathtaking new standard for sheer scope and scale of gameplay. Massive battles unfold across maps of unparalleled size and scope, as thousands of units fight to the bitter end.

 This game got an award? December 6, 2008
I can't believe this game got an award. First, the graphics at the highest setting look extremely dated. There are games from the 90's that blow this out of the door. I was not impressed by the AI, which seemed to be random patterns with no real thought put to it.
The worst is the interface. As an Information Architect, you realize how bad an interface can make a game. When you get this game started, you'll realize there are dozens of buttons and icons that have no documentation and you can't use them, but they are all over the screen until you build up to using them.
I haven't seen a game this bad in a long time, and thought it would be a Total Annihilation upgrade. But if you expect smooth graphics and a 3-d semi-realistic environment you would have expected from some game so heavily plagarizing a best-selling game from the 90's like TA? Look elsewhere.
 FAN-TASTIC. Wonderful game! November 16, 2008
I had sworn off PC gaming for quite a while but let a friend talk me into picking this up to play. I had long been an FPS and RTS fan on the PC but since my Xbox360 entered the home the PC had been left alone as far as gaming was concerned. If you're looking for a game to get you back on the PC then this is it. Supreme Commander as well as the Forged Alliance expansion is top notch. I wont go into some massive review since there are pleny of sites out there that do a much better job. I will say however that this game is a 'big' RTS. By that I mean that you will have massive numbers of units in massive battles. I love playing this game and the expansion. I'd suggest it to anyone looking for a great RTS.

 MAYBE FUN IN MULTI-PLAYER? August 7, 2008
The title says it all, If you have never played a good RTS game, then maybe you will like this game, but for anyone who has played a game like StarCraft then you know how bad this game sucks. it was fun for like 2 hours or so, but i found it to be not very interesting at all. i only made it through like 4 levels or so before i had to call it quits. can you say boring. play World In Conflict instead. Maybe this is one of those games that is meant to be played multi-player only as it seems that would be quite enjoyable, but as for the single-player experience two thumbs down.
Supreme disappointment June 8, 2008

This game was a huge disappointment. The game was won't even work on my computer even though my computer meets or surpasses all of the required software. And I couldn't even contact the company. I would not recommend buying this game.

 With a single tap, Garmin's new nuvi 700s will give their exact location and the location where they were last removed from their window mount. Now, no lot is too big.
