RTSDot.com ???
   

Quick question,

RPGDot.com is great and this is where I get valuable info about all things RPG..(thanks guys and girls)

My other gaming is with RTS games, so...is there a sort of RTSDot.com site that deals with the genre as opposed to individual games..??

Thanks in advance,

Hexmaster

Not on this (RPGDot) network, I'm afraid. The next thing would probably be some sort of Dot for Console RPGs or so. And since I'm not interested in RTS games, I don't know of any other place "like" RPGDot for that genre.
Mm, I wasn't of much help now, was I?

I prefer TBS games honestly, but I've played a lot of the more popular RTS (I still load up starcraft and play on battlenet whenever there's not another game out).

I don't think there's a site as complete for RTS as RPGDot is about CRPGs. Nothing springs to mind, anyways.

Yes, Strategy Planet is my best guess, also.

This's undoubtedly a silly question to those who know, but what is a CRPG, a TBS, an RTS, and I know there're others not mentioned in this thread? Would someone please provide me with a list of these things? I know what RPG and MMORPG is, but that's my limit.

CRPG = Computer Role Playing Games
TBS = Turn Based Strategy
RTS = Real Time Strategy
FPS = First Person Shooter

There are also TBC and RTC where the C stands for Combat.

RBS = Really Boring Story
FPS = F**king Predictable Shooter
