Horrible and out of date.

The first thing that stands out is that the graphics are probably worse than some titles from 2002. There are absolutly no lighting, no shadows, and everything is low resolution. EA sells this as a "feature" saying it is "style", fact is it took the programmers about 1/10th the effort to give you cardboard box buildings and units.

The camera will no move out and you cannot see what is around you, kinda like the games from 2002.

Units are limited to rock, paper, scissors, cheese. No really, they are all cheesy. There isn't any strategy here, it is the same old, build this to counter that. If anything there is less because you don't have harvesters to protect any more.

This game is another example of the hype machine that is the game industry today. Market the crap out of a shoddy product and throw in a poster is chicks in mini skirts for the kids to wank off to.
