What type of question is this? Just get supreme commander as SC2 isn't coming out for at least another year. By that time you should have more than enough money to buy SC2 when it finally releases.

Personally I think Starcraft II will be 5-10X better than Supreme Commander IMO,kk. But seeing as it won't come out for a while. You like to get SP for the time being.

Bleh, you always beat me to it!

Get CoH instead of SupCom.

The SupCom online community is very bad. Hardly any games and the community as a whole are horrid trolls.

I just stated this in a previous post because someone ask the exact same question.

supreme commander is extremely boring. takes you 2 hours to build a massive army and in 5 minutes they are alldead. Then you have to repeat the process.

i had more fun with the original stacrcraft, frankly.

Get SupCom now and then SC2 as well when it comes out.

If it takes you 5 hours to make an army in SupCom, simply put, your a newb, ive made 100's of things withint the first 10-15 minutes EASY... ah nevermind. I give up, newbs will be newbs, why bother explaining :|

And the online community is the best ive ever seen. GPGnet is better than any multiplayer service for any game ive ever played, and the devs are almost ALWAYS on the chat.

And there are atleast 20+ custom games to join now. Hardly any games? Only if you never bothered to even play the game :p

horrid trolls? have you ever been to the gpg.net forums? Supcom's community is one of the most mature RTS communities I've ever been in. Just look at CNC3's community and you'll know what I mean.

Agreed. I have been playing Supcom since the day it came out. It is true that there arent as many custom games up compared to other games like coh, but mostly everybody plays ranked games (auto 1v1 or 2v2 matches). That is the best and fastest way to get in a multiplayer game. A standard 1v1 game on a small map only takes 15-20 min, and it is very fast paced. I've never played a ranked game that was 5 hours long. The online community is great. GPGnet is an awesome program to chat with other people from around the world, and GPG employees are on every day to talk. There is also a way to ignore trolls (/ignore ftw). Supcom is an excellent choice, especially if you have a computer to handle it nicely (decent video card and dual core proc is recommended, although i am getting by fine on my single core 3800.)
