I've only played a few, but from the ones I played I really like Rise of nations.

I was a big fan of Homeworld. I also like the total war series and Myth II (although those are not technically RTS's, the are RTT's).

But best of all time? For me? Age of Empires.

RTSs have always been my favorite genre, and I can say with some certainty, that the question should be what the SECOND best RTS is of all time, because there's no question that StarCraft is #1.

Homeworld...

Shame on all of you not playing that game!!!
Now that was a game with great reviews (93% on metacritic) still it didn't sell at all..

even today the graphics are great for a game from 1999:

I didn't like Homeworld at all, the awkward combat and punishing difficulty was enough to prevent me from completing the game. I didn't really like Total Annihilation, Age of Empires, Command & Conquer or many other popular / acclaimed RTS games. Personally, the only RTS games I liked were Starcraft, Warcraft III and Herzog Zwei with Starcraft being my favorite. Although I have yet to play a few well loved RTS's like Company of Heroes.
