R u bored of the war games u have right now? So get this Generals, even though u need a fast computer, still a good offer. If u try China have strong tank, but slow money. While the Usa comes along with missile blocking techology, also very fast money. Thy Gla doesn't need power, get a little money. (1st Generals game).

As they go on new techology comes new and improved armys. Like the each armys has a general three 4: China, Usa, and Gla. Now comes with new upgrades, units, and strutures.Install right away. If u want 2 know the new units, strutures, and upgrades, don't ask me. Buy it!!!

the best game ever

The best RTS game so far. I got a soupped up computer & the game is just amazing. Incredible soundtrack. BUT one thing that I have a problem with: the story. In this game, China is going after the terrorist org (which they attacked China for no reason)while the USA don't want to be part of. In the real world, it is COMPLETELY the opposite: the USA goes after the terrorist org while China is a country that doesn't wage war.

Finally, a Real-Time Strategy Game that Rivals TA

I picked up C&C Generals Deluxe on a whim, and was not disappointed. Real-Time Strategy has to remain fresh and engaging to be worth playing, and you have tons of options in this game.

First, you can play as one of three forces -- the U.S., China, or the "GLA" -- a terrorist group. Each of the three forces has unique skills, abilities, and weapons. With the Deluxe edition, you have two mission tracks for each of the three forces, so you have plenty of missions to play. Additionally, the skirmishes are incredible, you can edit your own maps, and online play is great.

I'm still partial to Total Annihilation as the best RTS game ever made, and I don't think C&C quite measures up, since it has fewer options (for example, only four aircraft types as the U.S., two as China, and zero as the GLA) than TA. However, this is still a very solid game, and I've spent many hours playing this title. This is highly recommended.

GREAT!!!!!!!!!!

This is a really good game online and off but you need to have a really good computer.
I have an Amd Athlon XP 2100+ with a g-force fx5200 ultra and 256 mb ram..
And guess what?!?!
It still lags a lot
With China it has the best tanks in the world but slow gathering.
The USA army is good but not really powerful... the Air Force General is not that good either.
Once you get this game i suggest you get the usa: laser general, but hey that's my opinion.
The GLA are good at gathering supplies but the are weak in small numbers. Any way you count this this is a solid game...
Oh and one last thing the stuff i was talking about like the generals that's all in Zero Hour which is still a solid game.

Great installment to the series.

I bought this without reading very many reviews because I've loved all the C&C games in the past. I'm very pleased with it so far. The graphics are a huge boost from the previous installment, and the little details like civilians and foliage are great, and the little cut-scenes are right on. Character sounds are awesome and kind of amusing the first times around for some. Money-harvesting is pretty slow, and there's some slowdown in the game even on my new computer, but as of yet I haven't been very annoyed. The 'story' isn't too indepth, but that's to be expected. I haven't gotten to the expansion, Zero Hour, yet but by reading the manual and the few reviews that I did it apparently makes the game even better. A great installment in the series.

good but should be better

First off: Can't skip cutscenes. Sometimes they are up to 2 mins long. Jeez.

The interface is lacking a bit; it's tough to pick one unit out of the crowd (like say a sniper). When selecting a large group of different units there is no way to tell how many of each unit you have. So selecting just the tanks is difficult or impossible. Rise of Nations has a far superior interface.

On the upside, it's pretty. Many cool units on every side. Skirmish mode is fun. Great superweapons.

one of the best RTS games to date

I am a big fan of the real-time strategies and an even bigger fan of the C&C series ever since I was introduced to it. Everything about this game is fantastic, from the controls, to the 3-D graphics and fully rotating screen, everything! I was a little disappointed with there only being 3 sides to choose from, however it was nice of EA to include the 3 variations for each side so as to increase the game's longevity and fun factor. That was really my only complaint with the game, but don't a limited number of sides to choose from deter you from this amazing game!

Amazing

This is one of the best RTS out there. Battle for Middle-earth from the same developers will beat it, but for now it is the best. I rarely play this game singleplayer now, but it is fun and if youdon't have an internet or LAN it is still worth buying because the computer is really good. When palying against friends thats when the havoc unleashes. There is nothing more fun than to appear in your friend's base with a huge group of upgraded Overlords (best tank in the game with radiation spreading shells) and blasting the his base or hacking into his superweapon just a few seconds before it fires. It is a great game that anybody will like. I've been playing ever since it was released at my friend's house and than I bought this Deluxe Edition a while ago. The datadisk adds a lot of new weapons and vehicles that are perfect for every side in the game. There are three sides in the game: USA (the technical one), China (heavy machinery), GLA (Global Liberation Army - terrorists). They are all unique but I prefer GLA most in the game because they have no power source so your opponent can't take out your power plants and completely destroy you with one attack. The Datadisk gives them motorbike riders which are great for wuick attacks and the ability to have tanks invisible. This is a great game that u should buy if you're looking for great RTS gameplay. There is only one problem. Requirements. The engine has to produce lots of units at a time and that drains your memory. I would recommend to have about 1.5 - 2 GHz of processor power, a graphics card as good (or better) as Radeon 9100 or maybe GeForce FX5200 ULTRA. I played it on Radeon 9000 and GeForceFX5600 and it wnet fine but you MUST, I repeat MUST have a RAM of 512Mb. Otherwise you will get a lot of lag. Buy this game, it is great!!!!!!!!!
