Interview: Supreme Commander Chris Taylor (Feature)

Nov 29, 2007

Nov 29, 2007 Most developers tend to be a little on the quiet side. Chris Taylor is a glorious extrovert, trading obscene jokes with the worst of them, carelessly mentioning games he hasnt announced yet and casually trusting no one will abuse his confidence. Hes also been involved with some of the most interesting games of recent years: Total Annihilation, Dungeon Siege and Supreme Commander. He contains contradictions: in our half-hour with him, he both expressed the opinion that the need ...

Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance (Review)

Nov 16, 2007

From the moment Supreme Commander was first unveiled as a successor to the real-time strategy classic Total Annihilation - complete with massive armies, tons of unit types, and the much-lauded ability to play the game with two monitors at once - we knew that this was going to be a franchise for the truly hardcore. Our suspicions were confirmed when we booted up the first game up and had our asses handed to us by some brutal artificial intelligence. Now Forged Alliance, a stand-alone expansion, ...

Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance (Preview)

Aug 8, 2007

A universe... at war. In videogames, it almost goes without saying. A universe in blissful unity isn't exactly a well-explored fictional backdrop. This is a science-fiction wargame. The universe is going to be at war. The problem facing Gas Powered Games is that it needs to feel like that. Supreme Commander had the sort of mechanized destruction that made other RTS games look like a slap-fight. To make the add-on pack mean anything, they need to raise the stakes. How do you raise the stakes ...
