Summary: I thought it would be better
Review: Solo play is not that good little or no stroy line which is very uncommon for a C&C game. I played all the U.S. Solo levels on hard and it only took about 4 hours to play them all. Westwood did not set a new standard here. Think twice before spending the 50 bucks!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: What have they done?
Review: This game is terrible. I got the game in time as I had pre ordered it from amazon, but this game is actually horrible, the worst ive played in the command and conquer series. The camera angle is terrible and the units move so [darn] slow. They need to work way more harder if they want to see these games.
I do not recommend this game to anyone at all

Summary: Enough is enough.
Review: This is 2003, and I for one have completely had it with Westwood's ridiculously bad AI. We took this kind of unit stupidity in 1992 with Dune 2 when the RTS genre was new, but when is Westwood finally going to wake up, smell the coffee, and realize that they can't just keep putting new graphics on the same game, give a minor gameplay tweak here and there, ignore the AI and corresponding strategy elements, and expect us to dutifully keep swallowing it and shelling out the bucks?

What was the original C&C's gameplay like? Click click click click, build build build build, then click to attack (or defend) with your hundreds of units. Repeat. And repeat. Until someone edges out a win because they clicked slightly faster, or the tiberium is done and a victory is squeaked in via attrition. Now fast forward to 2003 and C&C: Generals. What's the gameplay like? Click click click click, build build build build, then click to attack (or defend) with your hundreds of units. Repeat. And repeat. Etc ad nauseum.

This isn't strategy. In fact the so-called "Real-Time Strategy" has never been about strategy at all...it's just a marketing term to give a very rote, very brain-numbing kind of gameplay more of a cerebral spin. Well a lot of us tolerated that lack of strategy and AI, with the hope that as the genre matured, Westwood would have enough vision (if not common sense) to finally put in a worthy AI and make these games a truly fun, strategic challenge to play. Well they never did, and with what we're seeing, it doesn't look like they ever will...all they do is spend all of their resources - ALL of them - on graphics. The computer "opponents" and units are all as stupid as ever, and once you learn the units and the rote action, gameplay is also just as coma-inducing. :P

Save your money and your time. You haven't just seen this before, it's practically all you've seen if you've followed Westwood games, and anyone expecting this game to finally start using the immense amount of potential computer intelligence available to us with modern PCs, will be very disappointed indeed. "C&C: Generals"? More like Mindless Clickfest 2003. Pass.

Summary: This is worth your money. Go Get It NOW!!
Review: If you like RTS games then this is for you. I am predicting that Command and Conquer:Generals will be game of the year for 2003. The improvements are great. The game just makes more "sense" now. The air units are more important than ever to your success and the sound in this game is just phenominal in 5.1 in some levels you can here people speaking in arabic, dogs barking etc.
The graphics are excellent. I always wanted to zoom into the action, now you can adjust you zoom level to what ever you like. It makes you feel like you are part of the battle rather than a god observing from on high. The front end visuals and menus are done very well. Some have said that they are disappointed that the series has taken a different path. Nod is non-existent in this game and so is the cheesy acting. This game is taking a more serious tone.
There was the rumor of needing a high end video card to run this game. I am having no problem with my laptop running this game. It has the mobile Raedon 7600. I think that is the equivalent of a Geforce 2.
With an upgrade any soldier can now capture buildings(which makes more sense to me) Your war factory can now repair vehicles( makes mores sense to me)
The explosions are awesome, you see soldiers and pieces of shrapnel flying everywhere. The AI is fairly smart at the higher difficulty settings and each army type has their own strengths and weaknesses. Too me this really is a whole new game and I am already excited about expansion paks and new maps. I cannot comment on the multiplayer yet as I have been too absorbed in the single player campaign.
I am very satisfied with this game. This was the best $...I have spent this year. If you enjoyed Command and Conquer then you will fall in love all over again.

One word of advice: Don't play this game on Valentines Day because your sweetheart won't see you until the next day!

Summary: Not as Good as it could have been
Review: I am a huge C & C fan but this latest installment is just missing something. Yes it does have great graphics and I like the fact that it has three different armies to choose from but I just like red alert 2 better. I guess one problem is that there are only three different races to choose from. Red Alert 2 had 3 different races if you use the expansion pack but it also had the option of several different countries each with their specific special unit. I just liked it better like that. By far the biggest dissapointment that i have is the lack of ships. I haven't heard anyone else mention the fact that there are no water units of any kind in this game. What happened to the water units? Is there no Navy in the future? I was amazed that they failed to add a navy. Plus if you want to play the game with a friend they need their own set of discs. What is up with that? I don't mind them limiting us to one user key for the internet but limiting us to one player per set of discs is a low blow considering they always let us do that before. The bottom line is get this game if you like RTS. Its a decent game and the graphics are outstanding....

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: This Game Is Very Fun.
Review: This Game is like the second best computer game I have ether then Star Wars-Galactic Battlegrounds.I Would say buy this game now.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great game, if you have a great computer
Review: The Generals is finally here! The game is a load of fun, if you have a good computer. I have a AMD 1600+, 640 DDR RAM, Radeon 7000 64MB DDR, and it runs fine, but only on the lowest detail settings.
The game itself is a lot like the old C&C only with 3-D acceleration. The graphics are considerably better and you have an interesting choice of groups to control. Is it just me or is the GLA Al-Queda?
If you love the older C&C you should really consider buying this game.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: if the devil was to release a game, this would be it.
Review: Well... how do I sum this up?? I could give it a one-word review.. ... or I could go into a little more detail.
I went to my local games shop one day with my hard earned ...and had a scan of the shelves, and BANG.. It hit me!! The colourfull front cover with an intruding burly bloke looking at me. The only way I can Justify myself buying this heap of elephant poo, is that I was disorientated by the over colorful cover, or by the shiny cling film that it was wrapped in.
Well i ask myself now, why did i have to open that cling film?
This game ... in every aspect.
Gameplay: What? there is gameplay? well you could have fooled me. 0/10
Graphics: Ehh.. well this would be more impressive if it was run off the original "castle wolfenstein 3D " engine 0/10
weapons: dont get me started on the weapons. 0/10
vehicals: the only game in the world that lets you drive in port-a-loo's.
Well, Im going to stop now before i blow a blood vessel in my head... Over all rating? -1/10
(the one star if the lowest i can give it, although i think that there should be more of a selection for this game.. like 0 stars.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Great game but kinda dissapointing
Review: As far as Ive expect from a new Command and Conquer game, lots of new featurs and units, etc are all there. Except one very dissapointing aspect was the graphics. It may look very appealing to people because it does look nice...but its the same memory taking graphics as every RTS game out these days. I loved command and conquers unique slick graphics they had but not EA has to mess that up gave in to that empire earth kind of thing which i never really liked :\.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: COOL GAME!
Review: This is the best game since Yuri's Revenge. Excellent

gameplay and awsome weapons are only a part of what makes this

a tip-top game. You are a fearless Renegade who follows no

ones rules but his. You fight and drive vehicles such as tanks,

Hummers, and dune buggys. You get pistols, rocket launchers,

ion cannons, rifles, chemical sprayers, and flame throwers, and

that's not all!! Once you start playing the game you don't

want to stop. You also get attached to the characters and the

story. You can also buy the Official Strategy guide a

Amazon.com for about [$$$], you'll need it! Hope you take

my advice: buy this game!
