It's pretty cool, but you should buy the deluxe edition that comes with the Zero Hour Expansion pack.

it is good, but unless you have an insanely powerful computer you will have to turn all the graphic effects off

The GLA are almost unbelievably awesome.

"AK-47s for everyone!"

But yeah, get the Zero Hour expansion. The game is generally, I've found, a lot more fun just to play multiplayer with, rather than doing the missions. The missions don't seem to be that good, compared to the earlier games especially.

its nothing like the other C& games really, but in a good way. Zero hour is better becuase you get the specialist generals

Just don't use the Super Weapon general if you're playing online. She's a cheap ho. Auroras in general are teh cheep.

I want to get this since I'm a fan of the older C&C games, but my current PC can't handle it.

Red Alert 2 > Generals.

I was realy looking forward for this game, for the first week or so, it was realy good, but then wasnt, the expansion pack makes it a lot better, but RA2 is just better i think.

i have a radeaon 9000. it runs just fine on mine. its pretty good actually, except the GLA scud storm missiles are hella cheap, and for some reason the US patriot missile cant shoot those down, which is what they were designed to do in real life. wtf

i like how you can occupy structures with infantry, thats tight

Wow, yeah, that's a bit outdated. How long have you had your computer?

At least you have more memory than me, but it's probably like PC2100.

RA2 is more kiddy gameplay, look at the graphics, proportion etc. Generals is more realistic

generals is more like age of empires, than the other command and conquer games

I thought it was going more down the warcraft route

My old man went and bought the cheapest one he could find and we've had nothing but problems with it. :angry:
