Stick to the PC

I have been a HUGE fan of Command and Conquer games ever since they first debuted back in 1996. I was pretty excited to see the N64 release only to be gravely disapointed. All of the levels were the same as the PC version, there was no multiplayer (best feature of C&C games!), and the graphics were 3D but screwed up! Using the stick instead of a mouse to control your units is so hard it seems useless to try. Why spend $ on a jacked over version of a classic when you can buy the perfected computer version for cheaper? The answer is you don't!

they should have left it just a computer game

I was not impressed by the nintendo64's interpritation of this great computer game. I thought that this game was not only a wast of my money but a wast of my time.

Don't buy this game under certian suggestions.

Well, let me tell you. This game is the pits if you have already played the original Command &Conquer on the PC. Only difference is 4 new missions and the ability to launch nukes. If this is your first Westwood game, I would suggest you buy it. It has actually true 3-d enviroments. To me, this game was a dissapointment. Just the same old stuff. If I were you, I would buy something like Tiberian Sun or Command & Conquer Red Alert. Especialy Tiberian Sun has better graphics, new units, and uncharted missions. Anyway, I'm talking off the hook,just don't buy it if you catch my drift.

Just "More Of The Same" kind of game

I loved the computer version of this, and when i heard it came for N64, i was delighted, but when i rented it, i was dissapointed. it had better sound, frame rate and graphics than for the pc, though. but if you have a good pc, there is no good reason to get the N64 version. Just to be safe, if u r a fan of c&c, give this a rental. Newcommers would be delighted, while veterans will be bored.

fun, but a disapointment

This game may look awesome at first, but if you buy these war games for skirmishes (like me) then you will be VERY disapointed, there is no skirmish/free game mode! Not to mention the lack of multiplayer and choice of color. If you like awesome in-depth stories, this is THE game for you...

Okay Game

Command & Conquer is a good game, but you get stuck a lot and it gets kind of boring after a while, it isn't a very rewarding game to play either. The graphics stink.

I got this game and I thought it was going to be just an okay game. Did I ever find out how wrong I was! The game is absolutely addictive! You can play as the Global Defense Initiative (GDI)the good guys or the bad guys, who are simply called the NOD. There are 15 GDI missions and 13 NOD missions. There are also two exclusive N64 only missions for each side. The grapihics are okay, but not anything real fancy. If you want to run the game in High Resolution mode make sure you have an expansion pack; this also makes the graphics better. Just remember to go to the opions menu and select High Resolution everytime you play because if you don't the game will run on Medium Resolution. When you use and airstrick for the GDI or use a lot of flamthrowers, flamtankes, or a Nuclear Missile for the NOD, the game play will so slow down to a crawl until the fire stopsm but after the napalm is it out the game goes back to its normal speed. When a soldier dies he spills over and a little pile of blood comes out and then it disappears along with the body. If you run over enemy troops with tank or something, you get a squishy sound. When a soldier dies you may hear a scream. These are the only violent grapcis in the game. The music is great at times, but some of the tracks are boring. This is the best strategy game for the N64! A little hint to help is that the NOD are great at whiping out infantry while the GDI are better equipped to handle tanks and defensive positions. When you are capable to produce tanks and vehicles build vehicles instead of infratry because a NOD flame tank or a NOD flamethrower can wipe out a lot of infantry with no problem at all. If you play as the NOD then build turrets and light tanks to take out the GDI forces. You can use a group of light tanks to run over infantry. Also another hint is that if you play as NOD build some recon motorcycles in the later missions when GDI uses ORCAs, they are kind of like helicopters, to harrass you and if the recon units are in guard mode they will attack the flying pests. This is definitely a must have since new N64 games are no longer coming out. Some of the later missions can take up to three to four hours to complete. Have fun!

Nice try,but it falls a little short.

This game was good on 64,but it was somewhat disappointing.I was disappointed at the way your commanders mouths dont move when they talk to you,you'd think they would have added that in. The 3-d animation is really good in some aspectes of the game,not so good in some others.The boxes with a black stick coming out is the best impression of a tank they can give you,frankly its insulting,and the controls are way to hard to master if you are in a heap of trouble.The N64 control is too small with not enough buttons for C&C.But it does have its advantages.If you dont have a computer,then get C&C,just to give a taste of C&C on PC.The thing that surprised me was the "ghost" cursor they give you.If you move the cursor over a hill,it looks like its climbing over a hill,I like that.I think that the game is a good challenge for people who beat C&C,its the same,but it will feel REALLY wierd the first couple of missions.But even with all that,I still like the game.

Unique, Fun Game

This game is cool. It's the only N64 game I know of that allows you to command attacks and build things to help you in your conquest. The graphics are only OK if you don't have an expansion pack.

awesome war game!
