First of all, if you're gonna play the demo and review it based on the demo, you're a moron. It's called a DEMO for a reason--not complete and finished product. If you like RTS games and are a fan of the command and conquer series, this game transfers great from PC to console--surprisingly. Just read game reviews from other sites and you'll see what I mean. Graphics aside (good graphics), gameplay is simple, yet challenging. Good pick up--especially for multiplayer aspect via Xbox Live.

Game is Garbage!

I tried out the demo, and I don't see how people can actually play this game, it is a waste of time, I don't even know why I demo'd it. It's garbage, save your money and your GB.

The Best RTS on Consoles to date!

Command and Conquer 3 is the best example to date of how a console controller can sufficiently control an RTS. Couple the best controls to date with great visual and game play design and you have a game worth picking up. One thing notable in C&C 3 is removal of some of the unnecessary babysitting other games make mandatory. This is a fun, well designed, fast action RTS, if you have an HDTV and an XBOX 360 this is one worth picking up.

Not the best but great non the less

I loved CC Generals and Zero Hour expansion, they took RTS to a new level and really made it a skill to win a game. It seems like all you have to do in this latest version of CC is to build a huge army and attack fast! Though that's not such a bad thing, It misses out on the careful planning you had to do. It rewarded thoughtful structure building and placement as well as resource management. Seems like they took the S out of RTS. Dispite that it's a very fun game. There is strategy, just not in the same way as before. quick thinking is essential if you plan to take on anyone online.

Graphics are fantastic. The 360 version doesnt look as nice as the PC version but it's hardley noticable when you're in the thick of it. If you dont have a high end gaming PC, then the 360 version is the way to go. Online is where this game shines with a multitude of options to keep you busy. The controller took some getting use to. It's much easier with a keyboard and mouse but after completing a full campaign I got the hang of it. Hopefully CC3 will make use of the keyboard adapter that's due to come out soon for the 360.

CC fan?... PICK THIS UP.... new to RTS?...PICK THIS UP!

Gets Borring

Overall it was ok but the older starcraft beats this over. It starts to get borring after a while. You have to keep waiting for your units to build very slowly and you keep running out of money and have to reload especially at Sarajevo map. I gave up, it started to be too tedious. On the 360 it is just too slow to move around and the reload/restart of level takes a long time. You just can not move the controller to build fast enough before you are wiped out and have to start over again and then wait awhile for slow loading. Suggest waiting till cheats become available to increase money/resources in game.

Not the best RTS You could buy...

C&C3 is a very fun game, don't get me wrong. However, pretty much any RTS on a videogame system is bound to have control problems and C&C3 is no exception. This game is very fast paced for an RTS, and when there's a horde of bad guys attacking your base, you dont want to be fumbling around with a control stick trying to select your soldiers.

For me anyway, this game is just to fast paced for an RTS, but usually awesome battle scenes and graphics make this game at least somwhat enjoyable. RENT IT if you just want some gamerscore points and BUY IT if you like RTS's.

Great RTS!

Most of the negative comments from previous reviewers are probably from those who are used to playing RTS games on PC's. I, myself, have never played an RTS on a PC, so I cannot relate to those folks. What I can say is that this game is addictive and insanely fun on the 360. You'd be surprised how quickly you can get used to the controls. The graphics and sound are terrific. Movement is smooth and fluid. There is hardly any lag during intense battle scenes. I think EA is doing a great job of bringing RTS games to consoles and would also recommend The Battle for Middle Earth II. The controls on that game are very similar to C&C3. Give both a shot.

i suck.....

i am a big fan of this type of strategy game, especially warcraft and starcraft. i even loved command and conquer generals. i guess i'm too slow or i suck or something, because i can't get through a certain level, even on EASY. would be fine, if it were a later level, but its not. this is like, the third level. tired of reloading my game, etc.. would rather go play backgammon or something....
is this the new age of rts gaming? am i too old school for this sh#t? i love this genre, and if everything is going this direction, i am already tearing up. i like to spend time and think about my strategy before i attack or whatever. in this game, by the time i've worked out my strategy, i'm toast.
i think i'll just go back to age of mythology for a while......

its ok

This game is pretty good, but theres not that many units, maybe 6 different types of ground troops, 6 types of tanks, 2 types of aircraft. I guess thats not so bad. theres few upgrades cant count exactly. the story line is great. online is great. It just does not compare to Company of Heroes. its just as good as Lord of the rings battle for middle earth 2. Thats why i gave it 3 stars. just wait for Starcraft2 or any other Bllizzard RTS. But since there is very few RTS's for Xbox360 buy this one if you absolutely need a console RTS.

Excitement
