I got the deviance rip from a friend, but the data was corrupted, so it wouldn't fully load. :(. Oh well...
Syngod: If you're looking into a real challenging strategy game, take a look at Caesar III.
It's more like Sim City but at some point during the game you can control your army. And there are a LOT of things to do to please your citizens.
Maybe you already know this game, I know it is quite old, but it's very challenging, to me that is.
Then again I never completed Warcraft II :p , don't laugh !
I know someone who was really good at Sim City 2000 and that has a hard time getting past the early levels of the game.

I was just disappointed because the games AI just seemed weak compared to previous C&C titles. Would have been nice to have something that on the hardest setting would have been even half as hard as the Covert Ops expansion for the original C&C.
I have Caesar III around somewhere, but I'm back to my XBox at least until Doom 3 hits.

Well Caesar III is pretty unique, there are LOTS of things to do in this game to make the perfect city.
I didn't like AOE at all, there's too much strategy for me :p
As I said, I can't even finish Warcraft II !
I'm also stuck somewhere in "Dark Cloud" on the ps2, even though it looks like this game was made for 10 year olds !

Hehe I'm not that great, online I have my ass handed to me most of the time in all the C&C games except Renegade and C&C Gold :), and I still haven't beat Covert Ops.
I have no problem with the ai holding back on you in easy or even medium but where my issue with generals was, quite a few times I found myself attacking a squad of troops and not having them fight back and also a couple of times I was able to take out parts of the enemies base without anything even being sent to try and stop me.
If they are able to fix this with a patch (might have already haven't checked for patches since release), then it'll be a great game in single player. I've tried a couple games in MP mode and it's great, just need to weed out those few nagging weaknesses though in SP.
