Having played the games mentioned...

Starcraft = better
C&C Tiberium Dawn = Better
Red Alert 1 = Better

And based on the beta....


The Best RTS.... is Starcraft 2.

Having played all the games u named there, ur credibility ended at the bolded. Plus, one could argue if Starcraft is any better then CoH. Atleast it's more popular.


So, basically, YOU don't enjoy Westwood style RTS games, so that means that nobody should.  Nice logic.  Fortunately, I don't come to this forum for blind affirmation unlike some people (apparently).  So your comment is already forgotten.

 

Now on to some discussion...

The original C&C brought so much innovation to the game that you can't fathom it unless you were around before it existed - Dune 2 was good, but C&C improved on it in every way.  Plus, the soundtrack to C&C 1 is still holds up today - even if the graphics don't.

 

As for your dislike of Red Alert, well, to each their own.   I enjoy the frenetic, large scale for battles at which SC excels.  In fact, I dislike the small squad missions in both Starcraft and C&C - I got enough of that with Cannon Fodder (anyone remember that?).
