    Have played numerous RTS games and have to say that the original C&C from 1995 was far more appealing than this disfunctional and ugly bastard child. I find it hard to believe that such a poor game could come out in 2001. Some say there are some good points to the game, but the only one I could find was the button the exited back to my desktop. Not the worst game I've ever seen,Have played numerous RTS games and have to say that the original C&C from 1995 was far more appealing than this disfunctional and ugly bastard child.

    Intermediate, the AI is dumb, but I think that it is kind of fun.

    Really funny game. Good graphics for 2001, easy to play and good effects. A lot of units for use and cool things like long range rockets, atomic bombs or rocket launchers.

    It's an ugly, boring and vastly unoriginal RTS.

    Problems such as an awkward control interface, overbalanced gameplay, and easily confounded AI sadly undermine the innovations.

    Just another tiresome and unimaginative RTS. It’s a real shame. [Holiday 2001, p.72]
