Customer Reviews

A worthy expansion!
After the worldwide acclaim of Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars, EA manage to bring us a worthy add-on this game is awesome with new units, infantry, all new epic units which a so big they need their own structure, new sub factions and additional upgrades. However ATI graphics cards will struggle with my Geforce 8600 GT i can just manage running it at full tilt but no worries this expansion doesn't require any extra RAM so you'll be hooked in no time!.

Pretty good, a bit rushed
Overall I'm a fan of the C&C Tiberium games. This latest expansion is pretty good in that it takes the existing factions, puts on some spin, and adds new ways to play them, as well as adding some new units and sub-factions. The addition of the global conquest style of play is a nice touch, clearly competing against the equivalent style in the latest Dawn of War.

If you're a fan of the series, well, you'll be buying this anyway. If you're looking for a good expansion to an RTS, well, it's not bad. The video cut-scenes are mostly all cast on the same set, and the plot could have been dramatically expanded over what it is, but nonetheless it's the same C&C we know and love, so, criticisms aside, it's worth a look.

For those boycotting SecuROM and their awful copy protection rubbish, sadly, this game does come with it. If you can manage as a paying customer to get it to actually run, you'll probably enjoy the game. I did.

More of the same....but better!
As expected, Kane's Wrath is fairly similar to C and C 3, same graphics, same game engine, same principal. BUT the plethora of added features breathe a good few years more life into the game: World Domination, the new campaign and the new factions.

However, if you experienced game errors with the original...bad news...they weren't fixed with this expansion.

Beware owners of ATI graphics cards! Most of the problems are caused by these, while new drivers etc may fix them. Mobility (laptop grpahics cards) seem to be the most prone to crashing.

Unfortunately I am plagued by these errors so feel like the game is constantly working against me...but when it works it is brilliant!

And for anyone missing the factions from Tiberian Sun, you will not be disappointed: Titans and Wolverines return!
