BulletMan25's Review of Command and Conquer: The First Decade for PC
I have had the generals game since the week it was out and I have never got bored of it. The First Decade Box Set comes with all of the best Command and Conquer games for around £20-£25. It's not...
Back in 1992, PC developer Westwood Studios released a PC game called Dune II. The game was based on the Dune universe, but in the end, the licensed sci-fi setting really didn't matter. The...
I bought this enhancement after installing Leopard on my Mac. (Beyond the Sword is not available for Mac). It has great new features, that bring further layers of complexity into the game, like...
The game didn't work. Tbe second disk was bad. Contacted the company and they wanted me to send it back within a designated time. I couldn't do that. I live to far from town to justify the trip...
All in all, Civ IV is very very fun and, as with all others in the series, extremely addictive. The graphics are top drawer stuff. I love the Nuclear Explosions from ICBM's. I was rolling in a...
The cream of the turn based strategy genre just got deeper. The venerable Civilization series is one of the best turn-based strategy franchises in history, and the latest iteration is without doubt...
I enjoy this game, but zoo tycoon is kinda boring by its self, so I wouldn't recommend this game un-less you also buy the expantion packs, the expantion packs truely make this game great. If your a...
Zoo Tycoon is a popular simulation series from Microsoft for the PC. So far, it has two editions and many add-ons. Zoo Tycoon 2 DS is the second DS edition. It is pretty much the same game as...
The game is fun. Try not to get too upset when you are trying to put up the fence in training. The game can be a little difficult at times and a little frustrating. It gives the animal's and the...
bought for kids but didn't know you had to have one installed before this one would work.shouldn't be sold that way they should be tied together zoo tycoon and zoo tycoon two so a person would know...
I really like the game, though there needs to be a real sequel. Also need to ditch the squares. They can be used as guidelines, but being able to draw property lines would make it more interesting....
Okay so I hadn't play SimCity in a while before buying this game, and surprisingly it is exactly the same game I played when I was ten (that was eleven years ago). Besides bringing up memories...
Game has no autosave feature...but does have autocrash
*sigh* Once again I spend some time working on a nice little city, only to have the program abruptly exit to Windows XP. No error message, nothing; just gone. And since Maxis couldn't be...
SimCity 4 is already the fourth installment of one of the most addictive games and challenging games in history. Yeah, It's really hard to believe that many years have passed since the original...
"The best real time strategy game. Ever. (In my opinion)"
I grew up playing all of the different Age of Empires game, so I guess my opinion is going to be fairly biased. But nonetheless, AOE3, along with its expansions, is a simply amazing computer game....
Okay, being a devout AOE II fan, I was expecting a lot better. However, I had so many problems installing the game that the excitement I had built up for it when it actually worked collapsed in on...
The third RTS in Microsoft's acclaimed Age of Empires series picks up from the medieval 16th Century and leads on into the industrialised 19th. The single player campaigns, of which there are...
I really liked this edition, now sure the bad things from the original game are still there but this makes it WAY more fun! You can have water rides and pools and a bunch of new rides and coasters...
This game isn't that good. The worst thing is that the waterslides don't have enough pieces, passenger types (for example, a single tube), and slide types. But I really like it that you can create...
The devil's cascade Soaked! doesn't give you the hot-dogs or the delicious salty chips that go with them - but gleeful sadism? You bet. Rollercoaster Tycoon's already excellent ride design system...
There's a trend rooted in graphic technology these days. It seems that people are willing to let their imaginations run wild and turn that into a visual. Sounds good but I've found this method...
I bought this game a few years ago and instantly loved it. I can play this game for hours on end while neglecting homework, :). The only two complaints I have for the game is that the graphics...
Revolutions generally involve much unpleasantness and brutal devices that tend to start with the letter G, like gibbets and guillotines. Sid Meier's latest revolution is, however, a far more...
This DVD is both beautiful and informative. Pruning techniques are clearly explained and shown in close-up detail, which is very helpful, and the "Beauty of the Roses" segment is great viewing for...
I've played this game for weeks with a good friend. We like it, but it lags, and has frozen up while play against the computer. We are both on cable modems, and using the TCP/IP...
Where Sid Meyer's Civilization led, many other God games have followed. Some have been impressive, others have died a deservedly quiet death in the backwaters of the PC strategy game market. Some...
Restaurant Empire is realistic restaurant simulation developed by Trevor Chan and his team at Enlight Software (Capitalism II). Basically the principle idea for this game is to start rock bottom on...
"Complicated and Confusing (even for a coaster maniac)"
I HATE THIS GAME. It is extremely complicated and confusing. For example, instead of the height of your roller coaster increasing by increments of 5ft, they increase by something like 3.484. RCT2...
Making a sequel to a hit game is tricky business. If you simply rehash the original, fans will complain that it's more of the same. But if you change too much, you risk losing what made the...
First real-time wargame I have ever played.Incredible attention to detail without getting bogged down in minutia.Ability to play even minor countries with neutral status makes this perhaps THE most...
This game is nothing more than the origioanl Hearts of Iron and patch 1.06 that it took them a year and a half to finally fix and the C.O.R.E. mod (both "free" downloads).
Hearts of Iron And buns of steel, you'll need both for this Apparently, there was rather more to World War II than running around with a gun, shooting anyone who spoke foreign, and getting up again...
Hearts of Iron takes the well-known conflict World War II and, rather than focusing on small-scale, tactical skirmishes like some other strategy and first-person shooter games, instead looks at the...
It's the first time with a computer mouse problem in my life. I bought the Kensington minimouse approximately 2 years ago. The function comes in and out due to bad connection of the line between...
Developer: Blizzard (US) Publisher: Vivendi Universal MSRP: Around 49g 99s at vendor ( Shop for this title ) System requirements: Windows 98/ME/2000/XP, Mac OS X 10.3.5 Hello! Nice to have...
"The Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle-earth" is a spectacular game based on the bestselling (and rightfully so) book (not a trilogy!) by J.R.R. Tolkien.
That pretty much says it all. The graphics are nice and the two good and evil campaigns were fun. The game is a little simplistic, however. The on-line feature doesn't interest me so, once you play...
The performance by Michael Therriault who played Gollum and again plays him in the London production of Lord Of The Rings was breath taking in his ability to move, speak and create the same...
At last, the Xbox 360 version of The Lord of the Rings, The Battle for Middle-earth II has arrived, and we can see if EA's experiment to translate a PC real-time strategy game to a console is a...
I ordered these speakers. Little skeptical but it seemed like a good deal and from reading reviews I am glad I purchased them. These speakers sound just as good at a $300 set of BOSE. Good Trable...
Laggy at some points of game, and kind of buggy when leaving a game. Great game if you want to know what it feels like to be able to manage new york city. Customization is awesome. This was a...
As tycoon games go, this one's pretty mediocre, all right. However, what's really fun about it is not the recreation, but instead the re-creation, in loving detail, of Manhattan Island.
Although business sims don't offer the in-your-face action of first person shooters (FPS) or the addictive head-scratching of strategy games, there's a certain sense of accomplishment in beating...
Back in 1992, PC developer Westwood Studios released a PC game called Dune II. The game was based on the Dune universe, but in the end, the licensed sci-fi setting really didn't matter. The...
I have to admit that I have never actually parted with money to buy a copy of National Geographic . I am a big nature and animal lover, and I like to travel too, but I still refuse to pay the high...
War World for the Xbox 360 is a port of a game by the same name that appeared on the PC in 2005. It was received with lukewarm reviews on the PC, but it was applauded for doing many things well,...
If you like PC Games to do with war, I would whole heartedly recommend Soldiers: Heroes of World War II to both new-comers and old hands at RTS/ World War 2 gamers.
If you've been to a computer game store recently, you may have noticed a trend: There are a surprising number of new PC games with the word "tycoon" in their titles. Then again, one of the most...
It's all good clean fun, and a few fun incidents occur along the way to add a little variety to the build, perfect and maintain routine. For example, monkey's are often liable to use the branches...
Right what I came here to say if you want to make a huge army and so forth but start running out of money just use the add_money 500000 cheat do this 3 times and you should have enough to last a...
Conquering Europe is never an easy task, in real life and in Medieval II: Total War. It's a big place, after all, and there's no shortage of foes, as you might have learned in Sega and Creative...
"Great game IF it works. Major compatibility issues."
Great game IF it works on your computer. Most video cards are NOT compatible with this game. Be sure to check their list for your exact video card. If yours isn't specifically listed, the game...
I really enjoyed the original game, that is what prompted me to buy this game. I really love the AGE OF EMPIRES games. I would recommend this game to everyone I know. It is also great for...
When Age of Empires III arrived last year, it updated the famed real-time strategy series with gorgeous new visuals, though the sequel played it safe and offered only evolutionary improvements to...
I think Microsoft has consistently maintained a high quality series. I think it is the best AI game on the market today.....I am very pleased. Asian Dynasty is the icing on the cake...I...
This is not all that great, but does give a few more scenarios. I am disappointed that a company with such capabilities would not take a step up with this game. I find my self playing The...
When you first play Age of Empires, a warm feeling develops in your gut. Warcraft meets Civilization! Real-time empire-building! And does it ever look sharp and feel right. But an uneasy feeling...
This pack is very addictive and fun! It's a great value for both the original game and the expansion. The addition of the Zann Consortium in the expansion is alright, but I like it more for the...
The game is a great amount of fun, however the advanced graphics run very slow on systems meeting the minimum requirements. Expect to upgrade if your comp just meets the minimum requirements
This is a real good game. The first 5 or 6 campaigns keep you thinking and mastering your skills. Then it gets real hard. I have been stuck on one campaign for weeks and can't seem to win. Even...
When you first play Age of Empires, a warm feeling develops in your gut. Warcraft meets Civilization! Real-time empire-building! And does it ever look sharp and feel right. But an uneasy feeling...
This game is sort of like a beautiful aging celebrity who just gets more elegant with age but doesn't get any wiser. I bought it because I thought I would like the "blast from the past" (and it...
The only improvements this game shows are the graphics and the addition of third race "Scrin". C&C games always sucked and will suck forever. The cutscenes between missions were unbelievably cheesy...
"Very good, but needs a patch for some minor issues"
Just as fun as the original. Two new sides in the Brits and Panzer Elite create tons of frantic action. Pathways for vehicles and soldiers needs a fix because bridges become an annoying obstacle...
When Company of Heroes shipped last year, it proved that there's plenty of life in the World War II real-time strategy genre if companies take risks and innovate. THQ and Relic's superb real-time...
The initial release of Heroes V sometimes got faint praise, such as 'its a Heroes' game and it doesn't suck, yay!'. I thought it was better than that, but it did have some problems, such as...
A new faction is added to the Heroes V series, the orcs. But in addition to that there are changes made to several of the other classes, with the most notable being another entire set of upgrades...
I'm a long time fan of the series (Started out with King's Bounty back in the days)and I've enjoyed most of this expansion. The last part however is extremely frustrating and you have to...
Orcs top the marquee in Tribes of the East, a stand-alone expansion pack that is expected to put the finishing touches on the Heroes of Might & Magic V franchise. If not, it probably should,...
Conquering Europe is never an easy task, in real life and in Medieval II: Total War. It's a big place, after all, and there's no shortage of foes, as you might have learned in Sega and Creative...
