Amazon.co.uk Review
In a nutshell: After seven years the granddaddy of real-time strategy finally gets a proper sequel as GDI and the Brotherhood of Nod face off in the final part of the Tiberium trilogy. As normal you can take either side, as well as a third secret faction heavily hinted to be alien in originâ¦. The lowdown: The Command & Conquer games helped to kick start the real-time strategy genre back in the â90s and now finally this sequel is here to breath new life into what was an idea that seemed to get old long before its time. Naturally the graphics have been improved immensely, with tanks kicking up dust in their passing and larger explosions causing huge craters in the landscape. The artificial intelligence has also been hugely improved with expert path-finding for all units and a computer opponent that adjust its playing style to the pace of game you prefer. All of this is topped off by the dense storytelling fans love, including lots of live action cut scenes. Most exciting moment: The stunning graphics make for some hugely cinematic battles, with squadrons of Orca gunships kicking up debris from the ground beneath their jet exhausts, as they battle buildings filled with Nod snipers before eventually calling in a missile strike to level the whole battleground. Since you ask: EA has confirmed that fan favourite Kane – the bald headed leader of the evil Nod – will feature heavily in the game story, although whether he’ll be played by the same actor as before is unclear. The bottom line: The best selling strategy series ever finally returns to the PC. HARRISON DENT

Youl pull your hair out with this one August 30, 2010 Sunshine1. (U.K) A lot of good things to it, but to cut a long story short, possibly the worlds worst ever path finding
makes for chaos if you move 4 or 5 units, also the AI is laughable ! nuff said
command and conquer August 25, 2010 Mr. D. Mcalhone If you like this type of game this is the one for you.
Graphics good without stopping your machine, challenging without being so difficult as to not get to the end
Just a good game
Great! August 9, 2010 PC A fantastic game! Gameplay is straight forward and there are three great factions. I would recommend doing the campaigns as they're great fun and help you learn strategic skills for when you start skirmishing. Will play on older machines (mine's an old Pentium D 3GHz with 1.5 GB RAM and ATI 512MB RAM Graphics card) with no problems if you tweak the graphics options a bit. It has more visual depth on a CRT monitor but an LCD is fine. The graphics are excellent quality for the age of the game. I have a personal hatred for online gaming due to silly ongoing costs and licensing scenarios and It's hard nowadays to find a good RTS game without paying and playing online so, although it's not the most up-to-date game it's great fun, no need to go online but you can if you want to, the network game setup was easy and it's good to see that you can still get a great game at a good price. I hope that companies continue to develop games like these. 5/5
C&C3 November 7, 2009 P. Moody (UK) I have been a fan of Command and Conquer for years. This game doesn't disappoint.
No problems running it under Vista. I have had hours of fun so far.
Welcome Back Commander! January 3, 2009 Amjid Ali I have been a fan of the franchise and have been playing back when it all begun all them years ago. I have felt that with recent releases that this game lost the edge a bit but I am glad to see that the game appears to be back on top form. You will need a meaty machine to play this but if you liked the originals then you will love this.
Well done EA....
