Sc2/dow2/c&c4

[korncob]

I was wondering out of these newer RTS games which ones do you guys prefer and why?

I recently got C&C4 and I kind of like it but was thinking I might like SC2/DOW2 better, so I am just wondering what you guys likes best about them.

Depends what you like in RTS games.
I, for example, hate all campaigns, and story modes in all RTS'es. I've got both SC2, DoW2, DoW1, Universe at War, Empire at War Sup Com 1 and 2, all Company of Heroes and I've never touched campaign in any of these games. However, I love skirmishes and multi in RTS'es, and if you like them too I'm pretty sure SC2 is your best bet. It has stable community, it's fun even for noobs (just like me). DoW2 is more Dota-ish + units game. I've heard that campaign, especially in the expansion pack is awesome. Skirmishes are okay, they're kinda different than usual RTS game because here you have a hero, very simple macro, and lots of micro.

Ah thanks for explanations, honestly DOW2 would be my best bet as I love DOTA type games...and I did think that when I saw a gameplay of it. Hopefully it's pretty cheap.

Yeah, StarCraft 2: The Wings of Liberty™® would have been the better purchase just on account of sheer replayability and depth.
