Post by: an0n on November 16, 2003, 01:04:37 am: I like real Zero Hour better. Those little plasti-rubber guys with the trains and towers and helicopters and ****.

They were like D&D for cool people.

Too ****ing right. Try as I might I just don't get on with the RA style CnC. I'm just going to wait patiently for Tiberian Twilight... though I suppose I may be here for some time...

Single player was fun but the new units and abilities and the Generals challenge make this expansion pack really cool.

Post by: übermetroid on November 16, 2003, 07:52:47 pm: No, but you can do dial up from your computer to your friends! That is about the only game my spare 160 MHZ computer can do!

Post by: Knight Templar on November 17, 2003, 07:25:30 pm: As much as I loved CnC, I'd be afraid to play another Tiberian game after TS. :blah:

Generals was.. well.. too realistic.

Post by: IceFire on November 17, 2003, 10:49:17 pm: Too realistic...in a hollywood kind of way? It was way over the top if you ask me and fun that way too!

Post by: Stryke 9 on November 17, 2003, 11:14:59 pm: "Realistic". Heh. Cute.

They did a pretty job of what they did, but 'tweren't exactly hard strat, or an accurate portrayal. What exactly was supposed to be real about it anyway? "Realistic" games don't sell for ****, at least not since Close Combat.

Post by: phreak on November 18, 2003, 08:25:10 am: that was a little far fetched, especially when it came to tanks. i would imagine them shooting faster and being able to take more punishment

Post by: 01010 on November 18, 2003, 11:59:43 am: I liked Zero Hour a bit more than Generals, though that's more to do with the fact that it's the game that Generals was supposed to be.

Post by: Knight Templar on November 18, 2003, 07:18:49 pm: Realistic = America being blatently the strongest side (not just a little in-balance)
