  • Summary: Meteor showers rain down from above. Climate changes affect how weapons and vehicles function. Fog rolls in early during the morning obstructing view range. Weapons recoil after firing. And full warfare occurs beneath the surface of the earth. [Mattel Interactive]

  1. Three unique perspectives and a host of missions make this a program that can be played over and over again.
  2. Ultimately, Earth 2150 delivers complex and challenging gameplay - and even an absorbing story.
  3. Introduces many new and interesting elements into the sometimes stale RTS genre; although it has a moderate learning curve, fans of the genre will want to pick this one up.
  4. The most important thing to do before setting out to play Earth 2150 is to remember to synchronize your watch, because it does not count to be slow in this game, or things will burn up.

  1. This RTS is manly. Very manly. In fact it requires so much more brain usage in comparison to most games (even of it's own genre), that it scares away most of the wannabe pro (aka casual tryhards) rts players back to Starcraft 2 or Red Alert 3. The amount of things you can touch, change, modify, create and destroy in this game is ridiculous (from terrain reshaping, tunnel digging, etc. to researching insnane amount of things (no, not just new units - everything from chassis types, weapons to the types of ammunition, shielding components, radars/radar jammers, cloak fields, YOU NAME IT!) and composing your own units from the components you've reaserched. The game lacks nothing in a sense that there's ground, underground, aerial and naval combat, wmd's, artillery, bombs - the options are almost limtless. For the amount of fun and options this game gives, there can't be given any less then at least 9. Expand
