Best Strategy Game @ E3

Posted in Company of Heroes by ÜberJumper on June 8th, 2005

The Gamecriticsawards.com results are in! Company of Heroes has won Best Strategy Game of E3 2005!

While high-end graphics cards are the norm for PC gamers looking to get their action groove on, rarely are these cards bought with the intention to play the latest real-time strategy game. That may change with Company of Heroes, which wowed the crowd with both its visuals and its core RTS elements from the creators of Homeworld and Warhammer 40,000 Dawn of War. The movement of the soldiers during different encounters was as impressive as the game’s environments - almost anything on the screen can be blown up and used for cover, giving a fundamental realism to the battle sequences. Company of Heroes proves that in order to stand out in a genre that has become stocked with the ordinary, there can be no boundaries.

Shades of 1999?
