It's not trivial at all, we're discussing who is the true pioneer of RTS genre which should be on this list instead of Ubisoft, Sony, or Namco. Those companies didn't pioneer anything. Well Sony did the Playstation...but Namco and Ubisoft have no reason being on that list. Can someone tell me what Namco and Ubisoft have done to warrant their appearance on this list? who ever did "command and conquer" was the true pioneer for RTS. Westwood Studios. I did love Command and Conquer. I prefered it over Warcraft. Whats warcraft, i played part 3 once but it was all 3d and blocky. I perfered age of mythology. The command and conquer and the Age of "insert here" guys kick azz in all RTS. Warcraft was made by Blizzard software. And the Age of "title" series was made by Ensemble Studios.
