I want to try new genre of games. Ive been playing alot of FPS,Rpg's lately such as Fallout 3 and Skyrim. Ive not finished either but i am well on the way in fallout 3. I ust to just play single player FPS and 3rd person games such as dead space, Bat Man AA etc. I was thinking of getting a RTS game and was thinking of Star Craft 2 but i didnt realy like command and conqure games all that much but i did play them. Will i like StarCraft 2 or what RTS or genre of game should i play next?.

Nearly wrote Star Trek 2 :P

You might like Starcraft 2, as it is the best game in its class. It is sort of similar to Command and Conquer, though. Personally, I prefer the Total War series. It allows you to build your army and economy at a leisurely pace with a turn-based system, and then the battles are fought in real time.

Not sure, C&C is my favorite RTS series. And I have played a lot. So it really depends on what you don't like about those games, that will determine if RTS is even your sort of thing.

Here is one I would recommend you try. It looks good, and is very cheap, and runs very well, and can be pretty indepth.

Earth 2160 (this game can be found at GOG.com)

Total Annihilation? With expansion and mods it can be a really pleasing game.

I didn't like command and conquer, but i love the dawn of war franchise for RTS.

You might try a turn-based strategy too like Civilization5 or Galactic Civilization 2 (civ in space).
