Supreme Commander 2 box art reminds me of Transformers
Unless videogame box art is something truly outrageous, artsy, or so bad it rolls into good territory, it can be hard to talk about. The cover artwork for Supreme Commander 2 is exactly none of those things, so you just know you're in for a riveting story here. It does its job in that it says "this is a game about machines fighting other machines. Things will explode, and, uh, the game is published by Square Enix, oddly enough." I find it kind of funny and even a tad bit strange that the game is rated E10+. What, is robot violence not "real" enough to dictate a Teen rating? Yeah, you're probably right. I almost think Gas Powered Games should've taken an in-game screenshot from Supreme Commander 2, made sure it was the right dimensions for proper box art, and called it a day. Did you know?

Legacy Comments (will be imported soon)This game will never replace Total Annihilation >.> but since I doubt we will every see it again i will buy this. I kid you not, I started scrolling down for something further down the page, and as soon as I scrolled past that article I took one QUICK glance at the header image and immediately though to myself, "Oh God, not another shitty Transformers game!" SC1 was awesome and logic dictates the sequel will be awesome-er with the added bonus of actually being playable on most pcs. yay I would like to care about this game. Unfortunately, I don't possess the supercomputer that will inevitably be required to play it. Supercomputer? They actually optimized it properly this time. And supercomputers that run the first game are now mid-range PCs anyway. 8:00 PM on 04.12.2013 Chris Taylor would love to work on Total AnnihilationIn the what-if scenario of the day, Gas Powered Games founder Chris Taylor has stated his desire to work on real-time strategy property Total Annihilation again.
