Very Disappointing

First , the graphics are very good. The cities and landscape are realistic as well as the battle animations. One thing I find odd is that you may have a helicopter sitting over an enemy tank, and it just sits there. You have to tell it to fire on that tank3, I was expecting it to just do it like most games.

For me the interface is very awkward to use. It took me forever to discover how to play against the computer but not in the campaign. The option to add bots is particularly confusing, partly because there is no mention of bots that I could find in the instruction manual.

Creating a local server is I guess a skirmish mode. Why there isn't an obvious skirmish menu option in the single player menu is beyond me, very odd.

I have no interest in playing the campaign at all, in this game or any other. Campaigns are just boring stories that you have to wade through. I also have no interest in playing against other people in this version, when it comes to Xbox Live then maybe.

What I was looking for was a game I could play against the computer in scenarios I create. But of course your not allowed to, I have to pick maps that are only for certain game types that I am not interested in playing. So for me this game has very little replay value. Hopefully some cheat codes will come out to allow me to play it the way I want to, not the way the developer wanted me to play it.
