Yes it is good but your computer isnt all that good if i remember,im not sure if it will work on you're computer dude. I may be mistaken, correct me if i'm wrong, but It takes A LOT more to run than Command and Conquer Red Alert 2 i think. Does anyone know anything more about this?

yes Empire at war needs much better hardware to run properly than any of the C&C franchise. as long as your pc was built in the last 2 years you should be able to play it, can you post your system specs for me?

Yeah EAW is one of the best Star Wars games for the PC yet. If I were you though, i'd buy the extension pack, Empire At War: Forces of Corruption.

Trust your feelings. It is a good game and also if you happen not to enjoy it. You can always return it with your receipt.

Empire at war is a great game. It's very detailed and there is alot you can do. But it is very hard (button wise0 and takes a week or so to fully understand.

Trust your feelings. It is a d**n good game and also if you happen not to enjoy it. You can always return it with your receipt. You can't in many stores now because stores have cottoned on to the fact that people buy the game, copy it, and then take it back and get their money back. The only thing they will do is give you another copy of the game if it is scratched, broken or faulty. Its not like this in EVERY shop, but it is in a lot of stores that i have been to. - Dark Anakin |

People who do that are stupid. I mean.. I want the disk and box and everything as a collectible item to go with it, I guess some people don't care about that. lol. I sure as hell do though.

Yea me too, i agree fully. I am the same with music as well. I am a musician and i HATE downloading music, i would much rather have the packaging and the lyric book inside to add to the collectability of the music, because music is basically my life, but alas people copy music and steal it off the internet. The only reason i download music is if (a) it can't be bought in stores, if it is a bootleg or live gig that was never released, or (b) if there isone song on the album that i like and its not worth the £20 to buy the album if i hate all the other songs on it. Other people dont care though and just wanna save money.
