This game is very fun and strategical yet it lacks fast pace action. the pandimonium of the game is actualy quite sentrifugal to the story and moral of the game.
Wierd...

This is a verry fun game. It offers lots of playing time and a thick plot to go along with it. When playing you have controll of a small army trying to find objects, conquer enemies and establish bases. This game is good for kids 9-15 i'd say. There is little blood.
Absolutley Amazing!

Awesome. This is indeed a strange game at first but after 20 minutes you'll be hooked. After playing RTS's for the PC like Starcraft, Emperor:Battle for Dune, and the like, I got Goblin Commander as a Christmas gift. There are 5 clans in the game:the valiant Stonekrusher, brave and quite humorous Hellfire, magical Stormbringer,insidious Plaguespitter, and of course, the evil Nighthorde. You start out with Stonekrusher but end up controlling all of the clans. A good tactic with multiple clans is tough melee troops(Stonekrusher, Nighthorde) and devastating ranged units in back (Hellfire, Plaguespitter, Stormbringer). Different clans excell at different areas, for example Hellfire is excellent at ranged warfare (Hunters and Bombardiers absolutley shred other units) but are poor at melee, quite opposite from Stonekrusher. A goo game overall with a reallly great multiplayer mode! I beat the game in about 12 hours the first tim I did it, pretty long.

This may not be the absolute best looking game, but it is beginning to look good, right now on 10/11/03. The inspiration for GC was Pikmin, a game resembling a strategy or RTS game. This should work well for GC, I think, because in Pikmin it worked well, and it was an awesome game. So far, I would suggest this game to anyone who likes RTS's and wants one for a console, and most fans of Pikmin.

This is a pretty sweet strategy game for 1 player or 2 players in skirmish mode (2-p Battle). here are some tips:
Suicidal turrets: If your enemy is in his base all high and mighty, a good way to bring him down is to have two clans (prefferably one being plaguespitter cuz they are fastest)
send out 3-5 semi-strong goblins from the faster clan. take out 10 goblins from the other clan. take direct control of your fast clan, and run straight into the enemy base. youre guys might auto fight, but keep walking and they will follow. when you have the entire enemy base in sight, zoom home with your cursor, grab a turret, and you'll be able to build it in the center of the enemy base. while your enemy is distracted by the turret or turret(s) run in with youre 10 gobblins from the other clan and destroy their base, leaving them demoralized.
Retreat Fire: when your controlling a warpigpult and hes about to bite the dust, use the c-stick to turn the catapult at a 180 degree angle. now Turn around and run. while running you'll be able to chuck a couple rocks before the enemies disappear beyond the horizon.
Enjoy!

This game is Awesome! A great military strategy game. You control a horde of Goblins and your job is to go and destroy the other tribes. At times it is difficult to figure out what to do. The multiplayer is extremely fun but unfortunately only two people may play at a time. You can creat titans that are very large and powerful. The game is very fun and is fairly challenging.
OMG AWESOME

this game was overall perfect however far off graphics r a bit lacking but when u get close up it makes up for the far off view.
it is very challenging as u progress and the 5 races make for a great game. the 5 clans are really cool. multi player is where this game truly shines. controlling 3 clans and fighting another 3 or same 3 is extremely hard. unless ur trying to intreduse a friend to the game lol... a definite buy for all 9-16 yrs old.
The Best RPG for the 'Cube!!!

Goblin Commander is the newest RPG for the Gamecube, and it is nothing to joke about! The graphics are amazing, the control is unique, and the variety of goblins at your disposal is almost endless! You are Grommel, the clan-chief of the Stonekrusher clan, who must find out the reasoning behind the death of your Master, and try to convince the other clans of your innosence. As you beat the other clans, you control them and use their powers against the next clan. The best part is taking control of the huge Titans and reaking havoc with a huge ogre, and giant boar outfitted with a catapault, or even a ball of slime that envelopes everything around it. This is one awesome game! Just don't get discouraged if you can't win automatically. I've gotten stuck on some levels for forever, but I beat it in the end.
