Childish, cartoon-ish gameplay and graphics will appeal to 7 and under crowd... until they quickly get bored as well.
They should immediately fire everyone involved with producing EE 3. Did anyone involved in EE 1 and EE 2 ever even play this game in beta BEFORE they released this garbage to the public. Horrible gameplay, zero strategy, cartoonish units, all add up to no reason in the world to play or buy this thing. It's a joke. Too bad... another good series ruined by attempting to do too much and not understanding the appeal of the original.
