GameSpy writes: "Command & Conquer 3, the return of EA's seminal Command & Conquer franchise, brought back the kind of brute-force action-oriented "meat and potatoes" RTS that the genre's brainier grandchildren like Company of Heroes almost put out of business. The result was an enjoyable, hyper-speed RTS geared toward those who enjoy creating huge armies of toy soldiers and watching them blow each other up -- a lot. As the inevitable expansion pack for C&C 3, Kane's Wrath clearly isn't looking to mess up the nice little niche the series has carved for itself amongst strategy gamers. The result is a by-the-numbers addition to the Command & Conquer universe that offers some enjoyable new content to the faithful (along with a few missteps) but is ultimately an eminently forgettable addition to the game.
The expansion pack's best addition for single-player fans is easily Global Conquest mode. This is a turn-based RISK-style capture-the-world meta-game that, while not particularly original in concept, stands out as an excellent example of the breed."
Pros:
-Enjoyable campaign
-Global Conquest mode
-Campy cutscenes
-Sub-factions
Cons:
-New units are only for sub-factions
-Useless epic units
-Campaign puzzle maps

PC Games shows how C&C evolved from C&C 1 to Generals 2. Check out the screenshots.
Never played generals but I have played c&c 3 and red alert 2 and 3. Is it anything like those?
They need to re release the older ones with hd graphics and compatible with smartphones and tablets. Would love to replay the older ones from 90's and early early 2000's with touchscreen controls.
