An RTS to be Remembered

Company of Heroes is a great RTS that keeps World War II a still interesting war to play in.  With multiple units to command it keeps the game fun. 

The territory based gameplay makes sure that you are in a battle all the time whether you are on the offensive or defensive.  These territories are resource control points that you have to control to increase your production and the amount of resources you will have to win.  The territories also have points value.  Each side starts with a set amount of points and as long as you control the majority of the control points the opposing team's points decrease and your's stay stationary. 

Pros:
Awesome visual and audio
Great multiplayer
Destructible Enviornments

Cons:
Not enough factions

Company of Heroes is one of Relic's best creations to date and I highly recommend getting this game.  If you want more factions, which the only problem for me was not enough factions then buy the CoH expansion, Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts.
