Total Annihalation.

Yes. There's also tons of mods and extra units and things around for it now apparently.

I tried to post this yesterday, but my computer spazzed. Bad computer.

Anyway, the people who made TA *are* making a TA2, in everything bar the name. Looks mighty shiney.

Cant remember what they are calling it though. Something about comanders.

I loved TA, I would play it still but I never owned the expansion packs just used to copy them off mates. Great game though, I remember multiplayer games at LANs that would go on for most of the day.

It's going to be called "Supreme Commander" and it looks like it will kick ass.

The units will range from individual guys to city-sized beasts.

hmmm Krogoff.. Hehe I said behind. And seriously Age of Empires 7 years? Its not too bad for its age then. I can imagine TA is that age, probably more.. I think its designed for Windows95..

Yeah, I have had more than one LAN going on far too late into the morning with TA.. Hmm.. Supreme Commander. must look out for that.

Just digging through my old games and found:

The Longest Journey
ToonStruck

which are worthing checking out if you love point-and-click as much as me, otherwise probably best to steer clear. ToonStruck has Doc "Great Scott!" Brown in it and the other one has a good story and nice graphics, there's sequel in the works.

oooh, definately try out the longest journey if you havent already.
Easily the best pointy-clicky game ive played
