First Command & Conquer 4 Review from Ve3tro

Recommended Posts

The first, of many, reviews for Command & Conquer 4 has been spotted at Ve3tro. This isn't a very in-depth or detailed review though. Its one of those "review it quickly to get be the first gaming site to review it" type of reviews I feel. However a very respectable 7.5/10 was awarded. Here's part of it.

 

The production values have greatly increased for everything, the story is mostly affected by this presenting a story, a heck of a lot stronger and different than the previous Command & Conquer titles.

 

This is probably down to the story being far shorter than any of the previous and all that money for the production hasn’t been wasted on “big” actors.


The live action scenes have now probably reached B-movie class with good set design, brilliant lighting and some pretty good acting from all the cast, especially Joe Kucan (playing Kane).


 

The game presents a whole new look and feel to the Command & Conquer series, which makes the game feel more like a reboot than an end to a favourite series of mine since first playing Command & Conquer Red Alert, which is a little disappointing at this point as I feel the developers need to be asked a question; Why change the series now, when it’s the end?

The review felt a bit rushed, repetitive and there's grammar mistakes everywhere. But it's not a bad review nonetheless. It looks like he really liked the story, and was boggled by the gameplay changes. It looks like a few questions weren't answered in this game.

I actually found him commenting on what questions weren't answered to be kind of a spoiler...

 

Spoiler avoiders be warned.

I made it in about 5 paragraphs and then had a sudden desire to play Starcraft II instead.

Just a guess (especially since I don't know the story yet):

If this is going to be the end to the Kane story line but not the end of the Tiberium story line itself, then I guess it is most likely that whatever comes later is somehow related to the Scrin.

 

Btw. he says that one question is still answered which I actually believe is more suited to be answered in the Red Alert series but, of course, there has to be something "left" for an expansion (if one is going to be released).

The number of word-errors in this review is insane. It's very hard to read and not too coherent at times.

It's too early for reviews and even GameRankings got an early average of 68% from 4 reviews. Metacritic has yet to collect any score data for C&C4.
