Like it says. Something on the long side, but not repetitive or boring. Gotta be modern or sci-fi based (ie, not fantasy or historical). I'm thinking Sins of a Solar Empire...any other recs?
 
C&C3?

I love the C&C series, but C&C3 was crap until the patch that made it soo much better.

It is repetitive at times but it's lots of fun.
 
My vote goes to C&C3, although I haven't played the patched version yet. I've just been playing a few skirmishes, but its damn fun :D
 
Another vote for Command & Conquer 3 here. It's a really great game and just had an expansion released too! Playing the campaign again myself :]
 
I'm trying Company of Heroes. Like it so far.

-World in Conflict...Overrated

-Supreme Commander...Overrated

-Dawn of War games...Underrated good fun
 
Stay away from C&C3 Kane's Wrath until the patch comes out

Soooooooooooooooooooooo many desyncing issues with online :(

Every so often mid game, i would lose connection with EA Online

Some days, 3/4 games would desync, some days are fine

But if ur willing to dare it, my in game name is As5as1n_ :)

I'm actually looking more for single-player, which is what's pushing me away from Sins. I've got a ~30 hour (each way) trip to Singapore coming up and I need something to do. :)
 
Supreme commander, with the forged alliance expansion

The BEST RTS out there, forget the C&C stuff.

For a long flight it is unbeatable for levels of intensity and fun.
 
though i like C&C im gonna have to say go with supremem commander, and make sure tyo patch it to the latest version

I agree, after all the fuss with C&C 3 I really tried to get into the multiplier (and campaign) but it just wasn't very interesting to me. After playing Supreme Commander for a few months there's no RTS that even compares. It takes some getting used to (the first week or so was rough) but the complexity of it is amazing. I played the forged alliance campaign a few times and it was pretty good.
