Loved every part of the C&C series up until Generals, so I wasn't sure about C&C3...

But the promise of it being back to good 'ol NOD vs. GDI with Kane and all Tiberium'y goodness back, I bought it a few days ago.

And it's AMAZING. They've retained plenty of the old feel, and Tiberium Sun feel but brought in some great new bits. Unfortunatly, I have to play it on my laptop (i.e. lowest settings possible) which is a drag but on our home desktop, just on medium settings, it looks unbelievable.

The gameplay/story is great too, properly engaging. Also, the new race Scrin add a cool new element to the game.

So yeah. Go forth and discuss.

I got this for the 360 a couple of months ago, it's good. Freakin' hard compared to the others too. Online is a bitch though, everyone is so good. Or rather everyone is so good at rush tactics and stuff, no one plays a proper game these days.

I think this is quite possibly the easiest C&C ever. Tiberium Sun was seriously tough, this one though if you're playing as NOD, just get 10 flame tanks and you can pretty much take down an entire base :LOL:.

Bearing in mind I play pretty much everything on hard..

Hmm.

I'm on medium at the moment, so we'll see. Perhaps I'll try GDI on hard.

Especially the Tiberium Sun expansion, that was ridiculously hard.

I haven't got this one yet though, will have to pick it up soon.

The expansion pack Kane's Wrath (or something) is not far off.....

It's going to include some of the old Tiberium Sun untis such as the Titan and Wolverine a specialist sub faction of the GDI.

I wouldn't ever play RTSes on 360 or any console for that matter. Don't think my PC could handle this though.

It works suprisingly well for a console RTS.

It's true. Shame there's too many cheaters. Let's see how Halo Wars and World In Conflict turns out...

What's annoying is how instead of improving the AI's intelligence per the level of difficulty, they just give it production bonuses instead. Once you learn how to cripple a Brutal at the start, it's too easy. Though on maps bigger than 2v2 I have yet to kill a Brutal. They just take control and pump out cheaper units.

This game has the best AI of any of them so far, they use every possible tactic to give your weak areas a workout.

Awesomeness. I'm up to about mission nine of NOD, just got to where the Scrin enter the story :D.

So I got this game.I didn't like it at first but that was mostly cause I didn't know what I was doing.

Think I prefer the realistic C&C.

I got this the other day. Only played through the bootcamp but it looks and feels like C&C so i cant complain.
