Clearly you have only every played C&C as infact any experienced RTS player will tell you its one of the most plain and basic RTS series.

Total War Series
TA (am enjoying the Supreme Commander Beta at the moment, only on LAN play though )

Command and Comnquer is the most straightforward, childish RTS ever. The first one was great, but they went downhill after that, though they're still quite fun to play, just so simple.

I agree. They all vote C&C because its the "biggest" known RTS, which is bull for a start any Blizzard game is larger. There are like 30,000 games of WC3 going on all the time. And they only ever played the C&C games.

man what is this thing for AoE 2 i couldn't stand it yet its everyone elses favorite, Age of Mythology was so much better, and AoE3 isn't as good but has much better graphics and some interesting [and working] ideas that balance it out

Ah, I remember Empire Earth and it's map editor. 8 capitols in one spot vs. 8 in another spot, with a massive wall seperating them.

Fun, but prone to have no end.

Its because its the RTS eqivelent of the Battle Field series.
Personally the best tactical fights are in Total War, the best balancing with build strategies ect would be AOE II, but for all round diversification, mods and multi player, WC3 has to be the best RTS game ever made.

Total War series. Mixture of turn based and real time strategy makes it a really great game.

total war series, the real time section has no competitors, and the turn based section is good if you can forget a couple of A.I. flaws

Other. I can't say any RTS is the best of 'all' time, though C&C was surely one of the most prolific title generators.
