I really have to agree. The balance of a game cannot be found by all of
us shouting and yelling. Had Westwood been given more time to test the
balance of this game, it could have been a lot better. After all, there
are certain elements of this game which are poorly constructed, but
still, who can deny it is still the best strategy game around??? Look at
all the things, not just the tank rush before you decide which is
better. Those graphics in C&C were disgusting.
