Wonderful, Great, Awesome, Fantastic, Amazing...I think I'm running out of Synonyms....
Learning Curve: 0 to 15 Minutes (Depends on your level of RTS skill and familiarity with C & C)
Time Spent: 10 Hours or Less
:|First the Basics|:
Gameplay: It's wonderful, all of the amazing RTS action that you have been waiting for....Stealth missions...monstrous base building...non-stop action. Don't worry that one side is better than the other because you can tell a lot of time and I mean A LOT of time was put into balancing this game out.
Graphics: No matter what your system is this game still looks good from the jet trail of your Vertigo bombers to the tracer rounds of your infantry this game just plain looks gorgeous.
Sound: The sounds are good, what you would expect for an RTS, the screams and "Kill them all" screams your squads make as you send them into battle can get repetitive, however the voice acting is wonderful.
Value: More bang for your buck, a undeniable must have.
Tilt: Didn't I say enough already?
:Just a few words:
This is an in your face action game that will convert you to one side or the other. I started playing NOD right away and I must admit, if the NOD was recruiting today I'd sign up in a heart beat. The acting and story line is gripping and the campaigns are fun. It's constantly changing objectives so no two levels are apart. If your given the choice of going after and Air Base or the White house the next level is affected by what you choose. Say you take out the Air Base, then when you go to the White house level, they lose their air support. You actually feel like you accomplish a mission when moving on the the next.
If you actually read all the way here then there is something wrong with you. You should have been picking up the game after your read about the Gameplay. Tisk tisk, please do yourself a favor and pick up this game.
