Four of the Very Best Strategy Games for Pc
Gaming has grown tremendously in the past decade. From a niche activity pursued by geeks, it has crossed into the mainstream. Chances are, even your grandparents might have a Nintendo Wii sitting at home today, or your mom might actually be a better Guitar Hero player than you.
The past 4-5 years have seen a tremendous increase in the popularity of gaming consoles. However, there are certain kind of games that work 100 times better on a PC. Strategy and first person shooters would fall under this category. A mouse is essentia to effectively play such games (though such games are often available for consoles, but don’t have such smooth controls). So here’s a list of 4 strategy games you must have on your PC if you are a fan:
1. Age of Empires 2
Age of Empires was one of the first to effectively pull off the historical strategy Game. The first part laid the foundation of the concept, but it was the sequel that brought in all the elements to create an experience that was nothing short of perfect. Age of Empires 2: The Age of Kings remains one of the largest selling games of all time and promises hours upon hours of enjoyable and addictive gameplay.
2. Warcraf
tLong before World of Warcraft, the multiplayer phenomenon, there was Warcraft – The Game that pretty much set the rules of strategy gaming. Pretty much most of the concepts – different buildings, units, fog of war, etc. that have become conventions in the genre were started by this game which had your human soldiers facing off against the orcs.
3. Starcraft
Blizzard is the undisputed master of strategy gaming with two of the most popular offerings in the genre – Warcraft and Starcraft. Starcraft is a space strategy game with some of the most innovative gameplay and some very creative units. A must play for all strategy gaming fans.
4. Civilization
Civilization is arguably the most popular turn based strategy game series in the world. The first part pretty much set the rules that would be followed by most turn based games. As you can imagine, the game had you controlling a civilization and leading it to complete domination over other players through military, diplomacy or trade.
