This is the absult best stragic war game ever. It has sweet graphics(looks almost real), great sound, good gameplay, and all around great game.

technically great, but I got bored quickly

I have only ever given up RTS games before because they were too simple graphically or in gameplay. I have played Warcraft I & II, AoE/K, Starcraft, RedAlert, etc obsessively, even still like LoTR II despite the simple graphics and dated structure as its a great game.

Earth 2150 is a technical and visual marvel but just doesn't quite deliver the strategy gaming advances promised. Also a lousy manual and not great tutorial secnario.

What a game!

This game is incredible! The graphics are great, the gameplay is awesome, and it really leaves room for some great battle strategys. There are ALOT of controls, commands and buttons to remember, but unless you're a newcomer to RTS games they all make the game even more interesting.

Wowzers!

Wait a minute... Lighting!?! 360 degree look around, angle control, map editor, marvelous storyline, and brilliant graphics? If you've played any of the Command and Conquer series, you will love this game. Earth 2150 is a giant leap from cartoon-graphics, cheezy acting, and EVERYONE EXCEPT THE U.S. ARE "BAD GUYS." You select your country, and work to survive the soon to be doomed Earth. I would recommend this product if you like this style game (overhead view, construction, and war).

A GOOD C&C like game

Normaly I don't play ripoff games, but this one defenatly blew my mind! I often play as the United Civilied States (UCS in short). This game kinda reminds me of Total Annihilation almost too. It's 3d graphics are amazing! So a 3DFX card is required.

To complex for me, dudes:(

Graphics look ok, sound's ok, but I for one do not wish to spend a few hours studying the manual before being able to play a game. And even then it's a drag to input all your commands and having to return all your troops and credits to the staging area at the end of each mission!

How Could You Not Like This Game?

Earth 2150 is the most innovative game I have ever played. It has top of the line graphics, an awesome 360 degree rotatable battlefield, and more unit possibilities than you could ever think of. The combination of parts was ingenious! If you have room on your hard drive, buy Earth 2150. It will pay off!

All other RTS's eat dust

This game is awsome. Not only does it have weather effects but the time of day changes, seasons change, and the shadows even keep up with the time of day. Units left in one spot while its snowing will collect snow, and when they move it falls off. The designers took detail to way beyond another level, they went to a whole other dimension. The game play is also fun and there are many great techs, units, and features. Other RTS's eat your heart out!

Expected more

I bought this game expecting to sit down and not be able to get up for at least two hours. I ended up etting up after 20 minutes. I have played many RTS games and enjoy them very much, but I just couldn't get into Earth 2150. It is very complicated and I had to go over the instruction booklet several times. I also like a good multiplayer game. THis game does include good options, but it is hard to find people to play against. I wouldnt give this game the reviews I have seen it get on internet sites. Its just your average game in my opinion.

Great Concept, Poor Execution

I love RTS games in general, I recently bought Earth 2150 and have put a good 25 hours into the game. Here is what I think of it: Highs: Great futuristic scenario, cool 3d engine, great weapons. Lows: User interface, software bugs, hard to control units in the heat of battle. The biggest problem with this game is the user interface. Compared to other RTS games such as Age of Kings, or Command and Conquer, this game offers a very awkward and counter-intuitive user interface. The so called Total 3D Warfare loses it's "Wow" factor pretty quickly. It is a decent buy overall, especially with the price cut by a third, but I wouldn't call it one of the greatest real time strategy game around. The designers should take cues from other RTS games on the GUI, then this game will be a contender. Overall, the game's OK, nothing to stay up for.
