The problem with strategy games today is that they no longer need 'strategy' all you need now is PURE STRENGTH.
For example is Yuri's Revenge, sure the missions do require some clever thinking and all that, but if you play it with some friends on LAN, you'll soon realize that there is no need for some Battle Plans, Phalanx, or whatever, just gather enough Infantry, Tanks, Planes, and Boats, send them to the opposing base, and let the magic happen.
Although there are still games that live up to their genre, which is Strategy Games, like Advance Wars, which gave me a hard time just to finish one mission, pure force wont help me here... Strategy is a requirement...
That was a good sign, meaning that the Strategy games still live up to their genre..
Whatever happens, I do hope that RTS or TBS games will still live up to their names...
Peace Out...
