Okay, but doesn't play like Empire Earth

When my old Empire Earth install stopped working with a windows update all the way back in 2008, I decided to pick this game up. It wasn't the best experience, they tried some new gameplay ideas which I found interesting but dropped the ball in other ways. The graphics were dated even then, the campaigns weren't what I expected, and probably the most damaging thing was their attempt to chase the trends seen in other games in the genre, falling right into the RTS decline at the time. Something I can praise is while the graphics weren't the best, the designs were very solid and gave each faction a distinct feel, and you really get that feeling of your faction changing over the eras. They did a good job making each one play differently as well, and it was quite fun doing a few games as each faction and figuring out their strengths and weaknesses. The Middle-East faction has some cheesy tactics you can pull with stealth, which was definitely my favorite part of that.

Decent game, but not Empire Earth

Empire Earth 3 is a decent game, but besides the name it has almost nothing in common with EE1 and EE2. Graphic and gameplay are very similar to Warcraft 3. you have 3 factions to choose, build units and buildings, resource gathering is done with a single building at resource points, which you can find in any area. The only thing EE3 has in common with the other Empire Earth games, is the fact that you can advance from one age to another, which gives you new units and buildings. If you want a game like EE2, don't buy this! If you like Warcraft 3 though, this might be a nice game for you.

WORST RTS EVER !!!

The game is not comparable to its predecessors. The epochs have been reduced from 15 to 5. The civilizations have been reduced to three, but they differ in terms of gameplay. The world conquest mode is very boring. There are occasional events, but they are often buggy or completely ruin the game. Expect crashes every 30 minutes, which is extremely frustrating. The AI is incompetent in the world conquest mode and fails to advance through the epochs. In my three campaign runs, I always ended up fighting Stone Age units with futuristic units, which feels extremely unchallenging. In the RTS mode, the AI struggles with the Middle East and doesn't know how to properly place its buildings. I have often experienced situations where it simply sends its city buildings into my base or doesn't use them at all. Conclusion: Stay away from this game, even though it says Empire Earth in the title, because it is an absolute punch in the face for every Empire Earth fan.

Terrible

I really enjoyed the first EE, but this game is garbage. Very annoying voices for the characters, glitchy graphics, and crashing every other time I try to play it are just a few of the numerous problems. Do NOT buy this... I am really missing my 10 dollars now.

Don't

I ve always been a great fan of Empire Earth, played it a lot...When this game came out, I bought without thinking twice, paid 50 bucks on it... I tried to play it, I forced my self for some hours, but it was so boring and annoying that i could not take it any longer.So go buy EE 1 and 2 and don't waste your time with this one.
