AoE3, SC2, SimCity......

[GIBURROWS]

Is there a game out there that combines all of these games?

Building a city like Simcity, defending your city SC2 style and the all round lovability of AoE3...?

 

[LateX'Dog]

Possibley Spore, as it combines a lot of genres.

Settlers? Anno?

Not much really emulates the SimCity building style tbh.

 

[TheVoice]

Anno 2070 to an extent, perhaps.

I have tried Settlers but it never really interested me like I thought it might.

 

[hardkore]

Stronghold might be worth a shot

 

[Xordium]

Dwarf Fortress!

I guess it depends what you mean by SC2 style, as it's a fairly fast paced, micro intensive game, so taking time to build up a city at the same time would be kind of conflicting.

If you want SC2 but longer paced, and more macro then try the Supreme Commander series.

On the bigger maps in Dawn of War (the best of which were in the Dark Crusade expansion pack) you had the time and space to really focus on building up a strong base with lots of buildings. And in the Dark Crusade campaign, certain maps come under attack after you've won them and your fortifications remain for the defense, which makes it feel worth it in the long run.

Not much like Simcity, but then nothing is.

Try the Anno games. You wont get the speed of SC2 but you will get some of the SimCity style of gameplay and the warfare of AoE3....well maybe 2 as 3 was crap in my opinion.

To be honest though if you like those games, play them individually and appreciate them for what they are.
