Those interested in Dawn of War 2, and RTS gaming in general, may now download the open beta from Steam. I've been hooked on the original since I started playing it six months ago or so.
For those who have never played DoW, you concetrate less on resource gathering and base build (in DoW2 the only structure you can build are turrets) and more on offensive warfare. You gain resources by advancing and gaining strategic point across the map. It's very fun and a nice change of pace from the gather and amass RTSs of the genre.
System reqs:
Minimum:
OS: Windows XP SP2 or Windows Vista SP1
Processor: P4 3.2 GHz (single core) or any Dual Core processor
Memory: 1 GB RAM (XP), 1.5 GB RAM (Vista)
Graphics: A 128MB Video Card (Shader Model 3) - Nvidia GeForce 6600 GT / ATI X1600, or equivalent
Hard Drive: 5.5 GB of Hard Drive space
Recommended:
OS: Windows XP SP2 or Windows Vista SP1
Processor: AMD Athlon 64x2 4400+ or any Intel Core 2 Duo
Memory: 2 GB RAM (XP and Vista)
Graphics: A 256MB Video Card (Shader Model 3) - Nvidia GeForce 7800 GT / ATI X1900, or equivalent
Hard Drive: 5.5 GB of Hard Drive space
