90Three unique perspectives and a host of missions make this a program that can be played over and over again.
-
My favourite touch is that your forces have only limited ammunition, while in many RTS games your guns seem to have an infinite supply of bullets.
-
90A first-rate RTS game that just may revitalize the genre. [Sept 2000, p.110]
-
Earth 2150 has without a doubt escaped the dull shadow of its predecessor to emerge as a well-crafted, highly complex and beautiful game.
-
89While it's not perfect, Earth 2150 is one of the finest examples of a classically-styled RTS I've seen in years, and I look forward to more out of TopWare in the future.
-
Average AI and somewhat less-than-breathtaking graphics and sounds aside, it introduces some elements that I would like to see become part of the 3D RTS genre on a regular basis.
-
88A fun RTS game that comes almost as a surprise considering how much hype Blizzard and Westwood RTS games generate.
-
81Ultimately, Earth 2150 delivers complex and challenging gameplay - and even an absorbing story.
-
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.
-
80The lighting system more than makes up for this lack of colour though, with pyrotechnic multi-coloured dynamic lighting, and full day and night cycles.
-
80Cool, complex, and full of action, Earth 2150 extends the tradition of classic sci-fi RTS warfare with a few new twists.
-
78It could have easily been a "great" game if more time was spent making the interface cleaner and less micromanagement was needed all around.
-
75If you can get past the brick-handed interface and get into the game itself, odds are you'll enjoy it.
-
75It's also great to see something as real-world integral as a searchlight become almost necessary in an RTS wargame.
-
75Topware Interactive has made a solid real-time strategy title with some interesting gameplay elements, but buyers should research a little and know what they are buying into before the final purchase.
-
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.
-
70The most interesting thing about the game is its very nice looking 3D engine.
-
70A game that looks and sounds great, but sometimes feels more like work than play.
-
As fun and addictive as any of the high profile RTS games on the market.
-
69There's a lot of gameplay here but most of it is either excruciatingly dull or annoyingly derivative.
-
While Earth 2150 clearly takes its inspiration from the best of the RTS breed, it fails to establish any identity that is clearly its own.
-
A mixed bag of great ideas and poor implementation.
