Summary: Mediocre at best
Review: I'm a big fan of the C&C series but Generals isn't the same game at all.

There is absolutely no storyline. Aside from a few scripted events here and there, you might as well be playing a Skirmish against the Artificial "Intelligence."

The pathing is terrible. Worst I've seen since the original Age of Empires. Units have a terrible tendency to move in single-file lines or get stuck on each other, especially in the very cramped maps. They will also just sit there getting shot at if the enemy is out of thier range.

Damage and rate of fire need to be adjusted across the board. If Iraq had mobile launchers that could fire Anthrax-loaded SCUDS every 5 seconds...

On the other hand, the graphics and music are great.

Summary: Unhappy
Review: To tell you the truth, I'm flat out dissappointed. With all the hype I've been hearing about this game and how excited I was leading up the game coming out to buy it and play it is just unbelievable what I saw. The graphics are poor, maybe a little better than previous Command and Conquers. And you need so many requirements on your pc to make the game run the way it should. Overall I'm highly highly disspointed. And as a matter of fact I've already sold the game to a buddy of mine. So do yourself a favor and borrow it from a friend and check it out before you go and blow 40 bucks on a game thats worth about 10.

Summary: Hardware
Review: This game does not work well with ATI Radeon cards. I have a 7200 64mg card along with more than enough to cover the specs and the game was choppy and slow. Come to find out its a programming bug, apparently the designers prefer nvidia.
What I was able to experience was not overly exciting anyway, save your money people!

Summary: This game bites the dust. I'm ashamed of EA.
Review: This game is a definate dissapointment, i've played some of the early C&C games, the most recent being Tiberiun Sun and Red Alert 2. In both you were engaged in a great and thought out story line in which you were face to face with great and familiar actors. And thats why i bought this gam,e not for multiplayer(although i was planning on playing multiplayer) and yet there no story line what so ever. You go mission by mission with a loading screen that says

- Many comrades have fallen

- Take out enemy so and so

- Then destroy so and so

I was looking forward to seeing amazong cut scened of MiGs striking down enemy scud launchers and working with the President in taking out an enemy terrorist threat. Now i'm not gonna sit here and downplay the entire game, the single player missions are nthought out and well made, but the campaigns are short as far as i know don't have an auotmatic save, what i mean by this is if you leave while at mission 5 expecting to see a list of all the mission on which you can select the on you wanted to play, you wouldn't find one, i found this out the hard way about 4 missions into the U.S. campaign. So the next day when i decided to try multiplayer i entered my birth date, pass, nick ect. and hit create account only to find a scren pop-up every time saying "This password is incorrect". How can the freakin password be incorrect if it hasn't been made yet. I messed around with the password making sure to make alot of letters in case you need a certain amount, and tried only numbers and only letters and still nothing. So i've yet to play multiplayer and the this game hasn't kept me entertained for a week, guess i'll have to stick with starcraft and Westwood's Red Alert 2. And by the way don't get W3, its a maor dissapointment too.

Summary: Good Game, but need supercomputer to run it!!!
Review: I like the 3d effects, but why do they have to up the requirements SO high. I mean my computer can run AOM, why can't it run this better. It's like they want to force you to buy a new Video card or something!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: "THE BEST C@C EVER!"
Review: "I Love this game",If you want a fast pace, adrenalin pumping,fast thinking RTS look no further. Generals is it! USA,China,and GLA all ready to battle it out on your PC.(There are three different covers you can buy, I suggest you pick up the USA cover, it has the best detail as well as being the best side in the game.)

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: I miss RA2:YR
Review: RA2:YR is probably my favorite game ever. I have played every C&C game since the first one. I even used to play the original Dune 2, which is what C&C was based on. This is the first C&C game to disappoint me. It was changed too much. Gameplay is just not up to par. C&C:Renegade isn't good either. I hope this trend doesn't continue. :(

Summary: EA ruined it!
Review: The 3D looks good, but you need a super computer to play this. Why not keep it simple? It's the gameplay that counts, not flashy buildings.

The interface BLOWS! The little decorative designs around the interface should have been removed to reveal more vital screen. Unless you have a fast computer with a nice video card, you're stuck with low resolutions, leaving you with a narrow view of the battlefield.

Also, it's incredibly buggy. And I miss the signature cheesy FMVs. Instead, we get slow realtime cinematics that can't be skipped.

A final word. EA, BUG OUT! Westwood had a great franchise, now EA ruined it.

Summary: Quite dissapointing
Review: Just before i played it i was relly looking faward to playing Generals. i liked all the other commander and conquer games like red alert 2. I think the graphics let it down the most, especially when i found out it needed a g force graphics card 3, i thought the graphics would be amazing, (i'v sin better)
All the units are literally the same and on the skirmish levels, u can only get three teams.
But it was alot more realistic, with money, aircraft, buildings bin built and of course explosions. I also liked the general abilities with stuff like computer hackers and upgrades to units, my favourite is black Napalm fof the migs and Dragon tanks. The game also takes up a huge amount of room.
If u want my advive, i would pass on generals.
P.S, i do hav a g force 3 graphics card.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Awsome game, totally what i expected.
Review: I purchased C&C Generals and was unable to play because of my computer which is brand new but it has a celearon proseser. So i have to sell my Computer and get a higher pentium like a 4. I was able ot play it over my friends hosue and i loved it. It was extremely addicting i dident want to leave.
