    PC Strategy games - what's the latest/greatest?

    I've been playing Age of Empires 3 and still love it! Command and Conquer is another favourite of mine, gone through the whole lot up to Yuri's revenge.

    Any suggestions for any similar and perhaps newer games in this genre?

    I've nearly finished AOE 3 and like playing skirmishes still, but looking for something new if possible.

      Well i like AOE3 too but it's not really a replayable game once you finish campaign and try all skirmish levels.At the moment i still play redalert 3 and it's mode challenge,where i try to accomplish better time on it.

          You can try out the new Xcom Enemy Unknown (remake/reimagination of the original one) from firaxis (civ series).
          Or just buy this badass for 5.99$ http://www.gog.com/gamecard/sid_meiers_colonization :D

                  Red Alert 3? Was that after Yuri's revenge? I remember playing Red Alert 2 and Generals/Zero Hour.

                  Not sure about 3 though, going to have to check my box set and see if that was in there.

                  That might my first thing to look for

                  Anyone played Civilization V?

                              You're missing out . Be careful though, it's hard to close down once you get started.

                                              Ah right, looks good, but not really my thing.

                                              I might get Red Alert 3 and Command and Conquer 4 because I haven't got them, just checked. I got the first decade box set only goes up to Generals.

                                              Any good places to download demos these days? I want to try a couple of the Civilization games out and see what they're like.

                                                          I'm a huge AOE3 fan, and C&C:Generals, too. And the original SimCity games. There just doesn't seem to be out much in this vein lately. I tried "Modern War" on my iPad and was heavily disappointed. blah. I'll have to look at the firaxis one linked above.
