Company of Heroes just absolutely BLEW ME AWAY the first time i played it. This has got to be one of the biggest shocks of my gaming career. I thought that another WW2 game would be the same as every other WW2 game out there, mediocre and boring. Never in my life have I been so glad to be wrong.

Not only that, but all the environments, yes ALL OF IT, is destructible. Rubble from a fallen building can be used as cover for your squad, as well as artillery shell pits can be for the same purpose of cover. The best part, the game gets harder as you go, just enough to keep up with your skill level and then some. The only problem is the 1.7 patch, or the DX10 patch. On my comp, there is some extreme lag with the DX10 enabled, but no lag without it. Aside from that, this is an amazing RTS and it deserves RTS of the year
