EA has earned a reputation for producing bland but competent games. What I got, much to my surprise, was a professional, slickly presented and enjoyable Single-player campaign, combined with a bland multiplayer component.
First, the Single-Player campaign. Not as cheesy or fun as Red Alert 2 or the original C&C. This is especially evident in GDI, where the supporting characters take themselves way to seriously. Fortunately, both Michael Ironside and Billy Dee Williams have tremendous fun with their roles. In terms of storyline, NOD is definitely more fun to play through. The standout performances here are Joe Kucan (as Kane) and Josh Holloway (as Ajay). Joe Kucan is as charismatic as ever, and Holloway totally gets the C&C ethos and atmosphere.
The biggest problem with this game is its lack of diversity in each sides unit selection. Defensive turrets are less than useless, and there are no counters for the most powerful units (ie. Mammoth Tanks, Avatars, Walkers). Which means every LAN

Definitly a must for RTS fans. Hey it just released, and there are players around the world playing 24/7 so there gonna find the exploits, just hopefully EA will not get lazy early on like past RTS games and keep the patches comming.

I'm 24 and I guess I come from the older generation of RTS gamers. To me, no game has ever even compared to StarCraft when it comes to RTS games. Red Alert was probably a distant second. That being said, this is probably one of the funner recent RTS releases. I've played through a few missions and it was overall pretty fun. This review is intended for single player, only.
Personally, I love the FMVs from Red Alert and really looked forward to the live action in this one. First of all the acting is pretty good. Michael Ironside's voice is awesome as usual. I haven't seen much of Grace Park, although she looks better here than in the newer eps of BSG. Although every time I see her, it's like she's holding back and about to burst out in laughter or something. Fans of Star Wars will recognize Billy Dee Williams / Lando. I havne't seen him in years. The acting is surprisingly pretty serious and not campy like Red Alert. The props and sets are very authentic looking.
Gamewise.

Quick Summary:
PROS:
*BEAUTIFUL Graphics - The visuals and special effects are spectacular, EA really outdid themselves this time. Easily the best looking RTS out there.
*Incredibly Smooth - Load times are nearly non-existent, and I never experienced even the slightest drop in FPS which is incredible since I had well over 50 mammoths on the screen all firing at different targets.
*Balanced Forces - All three factions are relatively balanced (NOD is somewhat weaker in late-game but a upcoming patch will fix that), and each plays very different. Not as much variation as RA2, but still very good.
*Same Old Game - Just like the original C&C this game is simply fun to play. The speed has been substantially increased, making it much more intense.
*Multiplayer - Brutal and not for the newcomer, but loads of fun.
CONS:
*Repetitive Campaign - The single player campaign gets repetitive towards the end of the game as the same simple strategy is all you use over and over. Could have used something
