C&C Generals Gold

Command & Conquer Generals is gold is the revelation within the Command & Conquer Generals Preview on GameSpot, where they had the chance to visit EA Pacific to check out the game. They describe how the revised generals have turned out, revisions to the interface, some impressions of the single-player missions, multiplayer play, the three playable sides, balance, and more. Word is the game "is sure to be out in only three weeks."

Actually I'm an avid RTS player and played the preview for about an hour yesterday. I have to say that I didn't like it. The look and the feel of the game was off. Maybe I'm too used to Age of Mythology/Empire Earth/Cossacks/Warcraft3/Total Annihilation/Star Craft/ but any of those I could pick up having never played them and enjoyed it and loved the attention to detail that was all around me. Generals seemed a real challenge just to control as nothing seemed to be intuitive and the detail seemed to be a little lack luster. Can't help but thinking it was rushed.

EA are having such a bad reputation for releasing things too early and not as polished as it could be. I can't help but think of how many headaches I'll get from this game?

My other gripe is the simcity look to the game. As I'm playing SimCity 4 at the moment I see to many similarities in the look of the scenery. It seems EA is making EA games now and they all seem to meld together. Will you be able to import your sims into C&C Generals?

I might still pick this game up for the final version but I don't even want to play the preview anymore after an hour.

bothersome
