Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Disapointment
Review: This games seems to be very racist for one which was a factor in my rating. Graphics are a major improvement. Game lacks a real plot, the plot is boring, no movies like previous versions. It can get kind of sluggish.
The strategy has not improved much, still make the best weapons and more weapons to take over your enemy, no real new strategy improvement.
Bottom line... not worth the money

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: review by michael wiersma of Grand Rapids MI.
Review: The reson I gave this 5 stars is because when I go to my cousins house I beg him to let me play it and it never gets boring. Its so much fun, its worth every penny.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: great game
Review: Great game that will give you days and nights of fun just make sure your PC can handel it before you buy it. Seems the GeForce2 and above work best. my friend had a newer PC,but had a different name brand (started with an R)video card and had to change it out to a GeForce2. Well if you like this type of game and want to fight useing realistic gear pick this up.

Summary: Well....
Review: I have to disagree with dudeman on this game. This is VERY different than the other C&C games there are! First off, the game is much more modern than all of the other C&C games. Second, this IS NOT the first C&C 3-D game. Renegade is very much so 3-D! Third, every game has it flaws, and if he expects this or any game to be perfect, than stop gaming! Every game begins to get old! (That is why you play online!) I do agree with him that building like 7 paladin tankes and launching them against your enemy will easily destroy them.
Personally, I liked this game alot! Buy it if you like real-time warfare!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: fun game, great graphics and game play
Review: The graphics and sounds are really good. The game play is just fine (AI, maps, menus). I was waiting for a fun, realistic war game in RTS and I'm glad I waited. The GLA is right on the mark (even though it may offend some people, it's reality). I enjoy playing each of armies (USA, China, Terrorists/GLA). I've played the campaigns, and they are really good as well. I'm glad I bought this game and can't wait until my roommate purchases a better graphics card so we can play against each other.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: C & C General's ::)
Review: I have played alot of the c & c series and i must say this has been the best yet in terms of graphics having a more down to earth realistic plot (and units). This game is incredibly detailed and unlike other C & C games the three factions ( USA,China and the GLA all differ very much and Generals is the first game where the music is completly dependant on who you play with. Each side has ther own music withc reflects there place of descent the USA has a series of victorious military marches while the GLA and China both have music from there respectable origins. Another new aspect of this game is that when you construct a building the scofolding actually goes up and you can watch the building being built. Also a new feature that i liked was the process of making money. There are supplie docks around the map that you can build supply centers next to to collect supplies and turn it into money but beware the supplie docks do run out but each side has an alternet way to make money for the USA the supplies pad can be built (more than one if you want alot of cash) wich has about 2500 dollars worth of supplies dropped every 2 minutes for china they have hackers withc are infantry units wich can be deployed to hack the internet and get lots of money but there only good in large groups and finally the GlA has black markets wich generate a contant flow of cash but like the otheres you will neeed more than one to generate a reasonable amount of cash. Also each side has its own strenghs and weakneses and differant base defenses a new option too is the hero units. Each side has a unique hero unit for China its Black Lotus who can captur enmy buildings from afar and steal cash for the USA its the Gung-ho colenel Burton who can plant demolition charges on anything and can climb up the side of cliffs avoiding the base defenses and finally the GLAs hero unit is Jarmen Kell a mercanary fighter who has a sniper rifle and can snipe enemy pilots out of vehicles leaving them open to capture ::). There are oil derricks on here along with some other new tech buildings and you can build as many super weapons as your little finatical heart disires. Hope you get the game you wont be dissapointed.

Summary: wish i could play it
Review: my pc meets all the min. requirements but I had to put all the graphic settings as low as possible and it still runs frame by frame. To bad i cant trade it in for sim city 4

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A great game
Review: This has to be one of my favorite PC games. Despite the cheesy cutscenes and lame actors, the game does a good job of what its supposed to do: have battle sims. The story doesn't seem as cheesy to me as others say it is, and the skirmish is the most fun ive ever had on the computer(if you dont like the game, then blowing apart the enemy with 36+ fighter planes is something you should try!) Also, the demolition trucks and terrorists are pretty fun to just line up in an empty space and mass destroy(take that bin Laden ;) ) All in all, aside from cheesy cutscenes and [poor] acting, this game is top quality.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: AWESOME!!!!
Review: I love this game! I play strategy and action/adventure games, and this game rocks! In this game you can play as the U.S.A., China, and GLA (Global Liberation Army). The U.S. was what I would say as the most advanced technology in the game. China has probably the best options for building units. Oh, the GLA, what can I say? They aren't the best, but not the worst. They have "unique" weapons such as, anthrax, chemical missles, etc. (Can you tell who the GLA is yet? Duh! Iraq, Afganistan, and more!)

Pros
-----------------------------------
1.Great Graphics
2.Realistic units
3.Appeling due to current events
4.Nukes, anyone?
5.Good story line

Cons
-----------------------------------------------
1.Game ended to fast
2.No NAVY!!!!!!! ARGHHHHHH
3.A.I. could have been better
4.Single player games take awhile
5.Weapons of the GLA might offend people.

Like I said, I love this game! If you play Empire earth, Red Alert, Real War, or any modern strategy games you HAVE to add this to your collection!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Bummer
Review: I have several other titles in this serries, and they are 5 Stars. However, This software failed to function for me, even after: Trying it on other computers in the house. I down loaded the 10 MB patch (latest v5.0) with only the text of the failure changing. Trying to contact EA for support was real Mech-war. Be very serrious before committing. Hopefully they will get the bugs out in a year or two.
