Call of Duty 2! It may not have  exactly hundreds of people, but the battles sure are epic, and they make you feel like your part of a larger war. VERY instense stuff with your volume turned all the way up.

thanks for the replies so far, im downloading the demo for Rome: Total War and ive played COD2, those are some pretty epic battles in that game. My friend said that Homeworld2 has some pretty good battles, is this true?

Homeworld 2 is good, if you're looking for a really system killing game, go for Supreme Commander. It's got great, huge battles with loads of micromanagement :)

Armed Assault's can get absolutly massive....Though unless you liked the first one, you probably wont like it, its way to realistic for most people.

strategy game wise,

well theres the good Medieval Total War 1(original is better but doesnt look as good)/ 2 (better than RTW) and even the awful Rome total war.

if your willing to look at older games I would recommend Cossacks series of games, huge numbers of units in those.

Dawn of War series can have some big battles but they feel more like a mob fight

and offcourse theres the recent Supreme Commander.

FPS wise id recommend the old Dooms and Painkiller (it still looks good).

some mmo's like Lineage 2 can get pretty crazy in the battle department. If you don't like mmo's I would suggest going with SupCom. I haven't played ArmA yet, but that is supposed to be good as well. Oh, and then there's the battlefield games...

You don't find many battles bigger than the battles seen in the Total War games.

I dont know how I forgot about BF2...their large as well, Though Armed Assault has larger ones, BF2 is a lot easier for most people to get into, especially if your not into sim-level realism.

If youre looking for huge battles, look no further than the Total War series and Supreme Commander.

If you want epic battles, I suggest the Homeworld series and Company of Heroes.

By total garbage, I assume you mean "the greatest FPS to date".  In that case, I couldn't agree more, Forlorn Hope :P

I've never cared too much about weapons - so long as it has a good, heavy-hitting feel (e.g. completely UNLIKE the weapons in HL:2), I am happy.  Yes, that means I enjoy boring, traditional weapons.

I felt the AI, on Veteran/Realistic, was excellent.  They engaged in some cheating, but I've never seen a n FPS with AI that didn't cheat, so by comparison, it doesn't bother me too much.

But to each his own.
