Official rating completely undeserved.

User Rating: 9.5 | ParaWorld PC

First of all id like to say that Gamespots rating is completely undeserved. If this had been a popular title such as Command and Conquer, or another piece of generic, EA eye candy, the Gamespot score would probably be atleast 8.5.

The game itself introduces a completely new and innovative unit control design that I think provides an easier way to control the units strategically. The dinosaurs in the game are impressive and the special abilities they utilize show great animations, and the diversity of the units available is great. I do agree with Game-spots opinion on the poor cut-scene voice acting which does show cheesy voices (Especially from Cole) but I think the other features of the game make up for this twofold.
It is also probably on par with some next gen games that came out in 2006-2007 when considered graphically, which provides inventive environments. Only problem is there could have been more space for units on the sidebar, but i would recommend this game to any RTS fan.
