Gamespot has posted a preview (http://www.gamespot.com/pc/strategy/supremecommander/news.html?sid=6154677) for Supreme Commander, specifically covering the Cybran Nation, one of the three factions for Chris Taylor's next genre bending RTS.
The Cybran Nation doesn't have the military might or the numbers of the United Earth Federation or the Aeon Illuminate. As a result, the Cybrans rely more on guile and stealth rather than firepower.
I know it's not much new stuff, but if you're like me, then you're about to go mad with suspense for this game. I've already reinstalled TA just to satiate my urges.
Gonna be the best game ever. Can't wait.

I hate RTS games(mostly because I suck at them) yet I'm super excited for this one. The E3 demo sold this game to me.

I'd like to see more. Is it a video demo? Is this demo still available?

I am surprised Derek Smart, FPHD hasn't sued them for using the Supreme Commander moniker.

I think this is the one I linked to during E3, but there are 3 or 4 different ones... http://tinyurl.com/pprrz
It's a torrent for a shaky cam video.

This will (hopefully) be the best RTS since the original TA. GWN have a preview up for those interested:

I think we can have faith in Chris Taylor. He's one of the only few games designers left who actually knows what the fans want.
I feel he understands how important TA was, which is always a good thing.

I don't know, as much as I respect Chris Taylor's designs I'm still afraid this game would play itself. Hold "z" and watch your base build itself and send troops to win, release "z" to watch the end mission movie.

By virtue of the fact that the "smallest map in the game" is 12x larger than the LARGEST map in RISE OF NATIONS, I think we're all in for a treat.....
Twelve... freakin... times... bigger.
That's huge.
