Tiberian Sun is a perfect RTS. It fulfills everything a good strategy game promises and even further.

We have before the level and after the level nice cut scenes with brilliant actors. Michael Biehn and James Earl Jones are very talented actors and they really fit to the game atmosphere. Although Joe Kucan is not a famous actor, he is the bad ass here. He delivers the best performance and is the leader of a cult in real life.(Kane Cult :D) I also enjoyed other actors and actresses. Although CGI looks cheap, it's not disturbing. By the way this game is from 1999, so don't expect visual superiority.

Gameplay is also very realistic. I played a lot of strategy games but none of them was as dark as Tiberian Sun. Wars have always been dark and depressing and Tiberian Sun gives this feeling best. Soldiers burn, explode, get fired in different circumstances. Aircrafts do not explode on air, they crash.

We have very opposite sides. GDI, with intentions to control Tiberium growth and NOD on the hand tries to unleash Tiberium to all world. GDI relies on brute force and air force. NOD counts on its stealth technology and hit-run tactics.

Although it's a very old game I still play it. I enjoy it more than all other C&C games and Blizzard RTS games. Although the game looks very simple you can develop different tactics to beat your opponent.
