What our customer's say!

"Just another average C&C Game", Its just another addition to the C&C series, more or less. I will say that the graphics and overall quality have improved, but its still the same basic gameplay. I guess I'm glad it hasn't really changed much, but its still never going to come close to a game created by Blizzard.

"Good Strategy Game", I love command and conquer - good gameplay and good graphics. The expansion pack keeps things interesting. I routinely play with up to six friends and it is always a good time. Once I get tired of playing GDI I will still have 2 other races to explore and enjoy.

Just one technical glitch - I installed on my laptop which just doesn't have the horsepower to run the game, and plan to just move to my desktop. However, I cannot seem to UNINSTALL the game or the expansion pack from my laptop! uninstaller just hangs no matter how I launch it.

"GET READY COMMANDERS! THIS IS THE LONG RIDE!", I generally do not like expansions. They used to be additions only very successful games got to have. Nowadays they are mostly the...other half of the game the publisher withheld when selling us half the original for $50! C&C:KANE's WRATH is a rare exception that brings new dimensions to an already great game!

The original C&C3:TIBERIUM WARS is one of those graphically beautiful and gameplay intelligent games that will keep your interest for months! True, I could do without the wooden acting of Michael Ironside! (Gone are the days of Kari Wuhrer...Lock'n'Load!)

Story-wise, the expansion is somewhat of a prequel to C&C3-TIBERIUM WARS, as it is set on the history of NOD, starting off just after the 2nd Tiberium War and continuing well past the 3rd.
There is a big campaign comprising of 13 single player missions, new units and upgrades and a new (a la RISE OF NATIONS) Global Conquest mode, that can turn C&C3 into a Turn-Based game! What make this REALLY interesting are the six subfactions, each with its special units, strengths and weaknesses. Not to worry, all GDI, NOD and Scrin get their own off-shooting factions.
On the opposite ends of the spectrum, there is Reaper-17 (a Scrin sub-faction): with hard-hitting and powerful offensive options; and then there is Traveler-59 (also a Scrin offshoot): a much more devious faction that relies on mind control of humans (remember how much fun Yuri's Revenge? was). In between, GDI's (retro) Steel Talons and (futuristic) ZoCom and NOD's (mind-benders) Black Hand and (cyborgs galore) Mark of Kane.

Production of the new epic-units can tip the battlefield scales dramatically. Most are not only devastating but are pretty hard to take down too. GDI gets the MARV [Mammoth Armed Reclamation Vehicle], a souped-up triple-barreled tank; NOD gets the Redeemer, an augmented killer avatar; whereas, Scrin get the Eradicator Hexapod, a impressive six-legged mech.
Revamped units, such as the Shard Walker or the Reaper Tripod, or back-to-the-drawing-board units, such as the Prodigy or the Ravager all add to a renewed experience. Moreover, as a long-time C&C fan, I particularly enjoyed the reappearance of good-ol' units such as Titans and Wolverines on the side of GDI!

The graphics are beautiful, the physics detailed and the explosions and beam-weapons spectacular! Don't forget to turn on the volume on those speakers, because this is a total immersion experience.

As with the original: it misses the 5th star for fun because one cannot hold a battle formation while moving. As most units move at different paces (and although the AI has improved they keep bumping on each other), this results in the more agile, yet vulnerable, units having to face the enemy first - a short-lived sight... May be the next C&C (say, RED ALERT 3) could have some TOTAL WAR infused into it, with battle formations options.

If you are boycotting SecuROM you should know that it is the copy-protection used (nevertheless, it is the usual version used in the original C&C3-TW as well, coming nowhere near the BIOSHOCK RootKit madness!). I usually withhold at least one rating star because of such security inconveniences. However, I enjoyed the game so much that I was willing to overlook it. On the other hand, since it is important for a great number of Amazon customers, I have to mention it for the sake of a well informed decision.


Finally, be advised that for the expansion yes, you do need the original C&C3: TIBERIUM WARS to play it. If you do not have it, take note that this pack is good deal, as it includes both the original game and the expansion. However, the prices of the separate items fluctuate (and some times the cost of buying the separate parts is actually less than buying the bundled pack) so make sure to get the best deal.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!
