VGGen Gives 5.5/10 To Empire Earth III

David Pulgar writes:

"I've never played Empire Earth I or II, but it doesn't take prior knowledge to know Empire Earth III is an unfinished game. The concept is great, a historical-based RTS with three unique civilizations, but the implementation stinks. Glitches and overall poor design make playing Empire Earth III a chore. Like a B movie, it entertains, but the end result is a feeling that you've wasted precious hours of your life."

Pros:
- Good visual effects (even if units look horrid)
- World Domination mode is entertaining
- Each race is unique and plays differently

Cons:
- Poor unit AI and pathfinding ability
- Limited diplomacy options
- Enemy AI is easy, even on hard mode
- Very, very, very small multiplayer community
- Random glitches
5.5 / 10
