Boot Disk: Total Annihilation
Sometimes you just need to sit down, slide a floppy into your A: drive, and enjoy gaming retro style. We know this all too well! That's why we have a list of the best and brightest from days long gone. These are some of our favorite games of all time, and we're sure that you'll love them as much as we do, if not more. Welcome to Boot Disk, and enjoy the retro ride!
There's a few RTS games that are considered to be true classics of the genre. Dune 2, Starcraft, Command and Conquer: Red Alert, and Homeworld are all considered to be classics. And so is Chris Taylor's first game, the incredible Total Annihilation. With more units per side than any RTS had even dared to try, massive battles that took place in 3D environments, and a system that relied on real-world concepts such as physics and intel rather than dice-rolling, Total Annihilation blew our minds away with its complete departure from the norm. Even with Supreme Commander, its spiritual successor, on the market and an open-source remake called Spring on the internet, Total Annihilation is still as fun and innovative now as it was in 1997.



I still have this game in the BOX.
It is worth every penny then as it is now. Posted at 6:19AM on Apr 6th 2009 by Ryoga Vee
