a return to the political look of c&c

User Rating: 8 | Command & Conquer: Generals PC
storyline
c&c general follows a some what reflection to current events, gla invading middle eastern countries and in to some asain countries. the game mainly follows the premus of the chinese and un fighting off the terrorist advances. been sort of similar to current event this game is more on par with the original c&c, west vs soviets.

the gfx is c&c generals are really good. the game use 3d-accelerated graphics to render big maps consisting of mountains and flowing rivers. for example tanks raise clouds of dust when they move across desert terrain, jets execute tight banking turns as they engage a target, the best are the superweapons.

singleplayer
singleplayer mode is the weakest part of the game, it does not have good video sequences like redalert. missions are easy- hard, you have the possibility to choose between 3 parties and degree of difficulty, easy and normal are to easy.
like in most rts games, you can play skirmishes the ai is assessable, only when it start to use superweapons, then the fun is over.

us
the us campaign is more weapons of percison than out right force or weapons of mass destruction. players can setup a extremy well defended base early and concentrate on making high speed aroura bombers to reak utter destruction on the enemy.

gla
the gla are more innocent looking but their weapons are cheap items with stealth abilites or toxic units that will make sort work of non armored units. this is very usefull but it makes them more of a quick strike that a full on battle worthy team, building bunkers to send troops from one point of the map to another will only fool the enemy once.

china
the chinese is where this game shines, tank power. build tanks that can take out numerous enemy tanks or soilders with in seconds. this side is nothing but rush rush rush, get your battlemasters or overloards in to a good sized group and add the battlemaster upgrade and your enemy will be wondering what happened to his base.
