More work… and I got really addicted to CnC Generals Zero Hour. Yea its an old game but its friggin awesome. Its better than Warcraft 3 or Starcraft. Best RTS ever… Um… so far… I'm just a command and conquer fan and I like its political issues aspect that is very similar to real life politics.

Why not just call "GLA (Global Liberation Army)" into "Al Quaeda" or something? Is this about political correctness again? And alot of people bitched about that game cuz its like making profit out of an ongoing war thats in iraq and afghanistan (and possibly Iran?)

Some article Ive read about it even accused the makers of that game of being racist and the usual comparison to hitler. Cuz of the bad arab and chinese accents of the GLA and China units and funny statements…

"Ow ok I will work!"
"Can I have some shoes?!?"
"Cannot we live in peace!"
—GLA WORKER—


"China can use this!"
"China do not forget me!!!"
—RED GUARD—


Well bottomline its a great game except for a few unrealistic stuff…

- too easy to shoot down aircraft that theyre almost useless in the battlefield. Theyre expensive and theyre just shot down like that wtf?!? At least make em move faster and make them less vulnerable to AA fire. Realistically, bullets shot into the air cannot really take down fighter jets. But since its a game, make it like 10% chance for AA fire to hit it.

- infantry can take 10 tank shells and still survive.

- Humvees are made of paper and softer than Quad cannons… Well supposedly humvees are supposed to be able to take alot of AK-47 bullets and small RPG shots. Quad cannons are supposedly large trucks mounted with anti-aircraft machine guns made of low-technology.


- Suicide trucks should be more powerful. Suicide bombers should also be stealthed (cloaked… or would require special units or upgrades to be seen by the opponent). Cuz without stealth, they are useless and even dangerous to your own units.


Well… its a 4 out of 5 rating for me.
