I'd love to help you on this one, but the last RTS I played was Starcraft. And I wasn't very good against actual people.
I am glad you bring this up though. We'd love to see more PC gamers on our boards.

Yea, I'm an across the board gamer, I don't have a 360 anymore though, so I play ps3, ds, psp, and pc games.

I play everything I can. PS1,2,3, Every Nintendo up to the GameCube, original X-box, DS, GBA, PSP. If I had a PC capable of gaming, then I'd definitely have played more PC games. Heck, I'd be all over Steam. If you need suggestions for games on any of those systems, I can help. You just hit one of the relatively few blind spots in my gaming repertoire.

I've found interesting strategy games recently, they aren't exactly RTS's but one of them is not turn based, its called Hegemony Gold: Wars of Ancient Greece, might want to give it a go if you're interested in that sort of thing
Did you ever play either of the Battle for Middle-Earth games? They are a little dated buy I enjoyed both of them very much

I haven't played one for ages but I remember Age Of Empires was quite good and it had loads of them. Civilization? You even have it on the PS3, unless that is what Civ5 means up there. I liked The Settlers: Heritage of Kings, I think it was the 5th one, the previous ones were a bit different, specially in graphics and gameplay. They did a 6th one, which I have not played, called The Settlers: Rise on an Empire. You can find these VERY cheap online, some copies in Amazon are selling for under $5. It is not Age of Empires or Warcraft, it is much lighter but I think gameplay is good enough and has some funny dialogue. I read that Sacrifice was good too, has very good reviews (see [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]).
