Peep the video under "media." It really does look like TA 2.

Supreme Commander - Pre-release discussion
Wow.
I cannot wait to get my ass kicked in that on a regular basis.
How do you think the guys making the "official" TA2 feel after seeing that?

Chris Taylor is the guy behind Cavedog and Total Annihilation.
They sold out or something and ended up at MS and made Dungeon Siege 1 & 2.
Now he's doing Supreme Commander. I'm pretty sure he has other peeps with him from the TA days, but not all of them.
You have seen the results.
As for TA2, the original publisher has the rights to the name. Chris didn't feel it was worth paying for the name. He just wanted to make the sequel. It was something he always wanted to do and he knew people wanted it.
In one of my old PCGamers or CGWs it says who is making it. They did a blurb on all the new games in the RTS genre or for next year or something like that and Supreme Commander and TA2 were two seperate entries.
So that's why SC is more TA2 than TA2 is...

The worst part of that E3 movie is I'll be watching it for the rest of the year.

From the new PC Gamer:
In Supreme Commander, you'll be able to hook up a second monitor. It can be used to increase your view of the gameplay or be used as an interactive map with fixed camera feeds from user defined location.
Fuck YES!

I'm already trying to figure out the business justification for me to have two monitors at home.

I can get away with having a seperate 17 inch monitor, but I wanted dual 22 inch monitors.
I guess the 17 inch will be fine since I'll use it for the map.

"Be bold, and mighty forces will come to your aid."
Both PCGamer and Computer Gaming World have features on it this month. PCGamer even got their hands on it. They also list it as being released in Winter of 06.
I think we may be pretty close to a release date.

Early thoughts?
Gas Powered Games says the game is hitting shelves early next year.
