    The production quality on KW 360 is solid, and the cinematics are stellar, but I do agree that the game-play is nothing to remember. Multiplayer and a decent frame rate is really all the game has going for it. The interface is better than Tiberium Wars, but like others have said, the interface in Universe at War 360 is far superior. KW 360 is worth a rent if you are a 360 RTS buff.

    Pretty good game. There are a few things that should've been done to make it better though. Kane's Challenge is a nice addition but there really isn't any variety to it for each faction. It's just using the same strategies over and over again which doesn't make the game's lasting appeal very good at all. The campaign is ok for an expansion pack but it just Pretty good game.

The campaign is ok for an expansion pack but it just doesn't do much to keep you interested in what is going on. The new sub-factions are a great addition to the game. It brings variety to the factions but, as I said earlier, when you play Kane's Challenge with all of the factions you can just use the same strategy over and over which makes it repetitive. Overall it is a good game.… Expand

    Controls and visuals are improved from the previous game. Missions are fun and challenging, yet as a whole, the game lacks any real depth and doesn't really have any real substance to it.

    Overall:
    As an expansion it would have been good, but as a stand alone title it's rather weak and lack a decent story driven campaign that made the others feel more whole.

    Ultimately, as good a game as Kane's Wrath is, it's just better on PC -- you just won't get the complete experience with the 360 version.

    EALA R&D'd a new control scheme which does pretty well overall. There’s also a fairly fleshed-out Live arena, a custom Xbox 360 gauntlet mode and the ability to play this title without having to jump it with "Tiberium Wars." All of this– at a price that won’t scare away the RTS n00b– makes this wrath worth enduring.

    Online play is as good as we’ve seen out of the genre on console, mostly because of the improved controls, but C&C 3’s reliance on hard counters, unit specials, and speedy expansion is a terrible fit for the limitations of the gamepad interface. Kane’s Wrath executes its mediocre ideas solidly, but that doesn’t make it any more fun to play.
