#STARFRONT COLLISION 2016 UPGRADE#

Unlike the others that have tried out the RTS genre, Gameloft has found a good balance between base building and attacking, finally allowing you to build up a base defense and attack troop before you get mobbed by the world of enemies.

The controls are basically the same, with you doing all the normal stuff that you would do in an RTS build your base, mine some minerals, build some troops, upgrade your stuff, then kill the enemy. Like Starcraft, you can play as three races (humans, the extremely Zerg-like Myriad, and the stoic Protoss-like robot race called the Wardens) and the humans have a rogue faction that will probably turn out to be the bad guy in the sequel. If you haven't put it together, Starfront is StarCraft.

Gameloft is undoubtedly good at making games, but it kills me a little to think that there is very little original thought going on in the company. To their defense, they haven't put out a truly bad game since Real Tennis 2009, and even that may have been fixed through rampant updates (it is on version 1.5.2). Nothing is sacred though to Gameloft, who will take any game, no matter how special, and regurgitate it into their own little morsel of iOS goodness. And you thought *your* Zerg rush was good. Heck, the game is so huge that there are professional sports leagues in Korea dedicated to it, where gamers are measured no in athletic prowess, but by how many 'commands per minute' they can slap down. As far as I'm concerned, there hasn't been a single amazing RTS to come out since Starcraft was launched, as it became the bar to which other games were rated. It was Starcraft though that stopped people in their tracks. Warcraft 2 was still going strong through expansion packs and map sets, C&C: Red Alert and Age of Empires 2 were both killer in their own right, and Total Annihilation multiplayer games were totally hogging my 56K bandwidth. If you were to take a time machine and ask the late 90's version of myself what the best gaming genre was, I would've undoubtedly said RTS. Price: Free to download, $6.99 In-app purchase
