Command and Conquer Generals: Zero Hour Expansion Pack - PC

Hey I'm a big fan of wargames ever since panzer general, steel panthers I,II and recently medal of honor and battlefield 42 and nam....I have to say generals zero hour is the best war game ever made...simply because of the near realism and ability to command weapons of mass destruction and modern military machines. The game is just flat out fun and its fast - yeah there are some issues with load time in installation and quirks online but this game rocks....firing nuke missles, scud storms are satisfying....controlling bombers, snipers, tanks make it seem like you're really controlling a battlefield and fighting a war....there are other fantastic weapons to command like carpet bombing, spectre gunship straffing runs, artillery barages...its just fun as heck to unleash "heck" on your command...there are superhero's to command to like general burton, jarmen kell, and black lotus...this game has it all and it is eerrily accurate portrayal of today's world military landscape, china, USA and Al Qaieda as the main forces at battle...The GLA have suicide bombers, truck bombers and biological attack weapons that are crazy...don't believe the negative reviews on here cause this game is all that and a bag of chips...I wish they would come out with another expansion pack...the message board at EA is helpful too when learning strategies to play and watching highlights of the top players and how they manuever their forces...the game plays real time so the action is fast sometimes but enables strategy and planning in attack and defense formations....fire a nuke missle and feel the power of a WMD only in this game.

Hard to get this game compatible with Win 10 , too many issues involved with playing as a multiplayer, the game is so old now that itss difficult as hell to use as multiplayer, as a solo game it still works.

Haven't downloaded it yet, but it isn't the expansion pack advertised in the picture, I owned this game several years ago and had the expansion pack. This is just the disc. False advertising. Probably wouldn't have gotten it from this seller if I had known. But it's a great game, hope it installs correctly.

If you have never played GENERALS - grab it and this expansion pack and enjoy. Great CnC game that at the time I really enjoyed. A year or two ago i tried loading it again on Windows 10 and had some system issues - I think they can be overcome and the game played from what I read but I gave up eventually. But a really fun game that people were making maps for at the time and I recall myself and 2-3 friends playing for hours against each other and bots.

The game didn't even work. I was to lazy or to busy to send it back. Have a nice day.

After struggling with installing Zero Hour, I realized it required the base game software as well.

This game took some time for me to learn but once I mastered it, I got a full summer of FUN.I wish they would make it work with windows 7. I'm thinking of buying a used XP computer just to play it some more.This game is almost pure strategy and doesn't depend on quick young nimble fingers. If you like chess you'll probably like this game. You set up your defense/offense strategy and the enemy comes rolling up while you are making your preparations to attack him/the computer. No joystick is required.UPDATE: THIS GAME DOES WORK ON WINDOWS SEVEN. This would NOT work on my acer windows seven computer but it works fine on my Toshiba with windows seven.

Bloatware. The "artists" spent their time and energy making some pretty graphics that will challenge your video card, and frustrate your internet connection if you have anything less than state of the art. As far as game play, step backward regarding on-line playing. Serious lag even with a high speed connection. No way to communicate effectively with other players and hard to turn off the audio to enhance performance. Starcraft Brood War(a 4 year old game) is superior. The AI is less than top notch. And forget about the QA people actually getting the bugs out. Maps have all sorts of bugs, and for an upgrade, try to import older C&C maps?Where are specification on unit performance? It trial and error to figure out ranges and weapon effectiveness.EA games seems to want to "challenge everything" except producing a top notch game. I was disapointed by this expensive add on product.My recommendation, hold off and get Zero Hour on the cheap.
