Any help on this? 
2008-04-01
Does anybody know why this game will not work on my Dell 6400 laptop? It crashes about 5 minutes into gameplay back to windows. What I can tell of the game from what I have seen it is amazing with really good graphics but cannot review it to the full extent since I have not played the full game. Any help is appreciated and yes I know this is not a help forum but have done a lot of research with no good results.

I've always been a fan of the C&C games... and by far this one is the best. I've only played a few of the missions so far, but I'm looking forward to seeing how the multiplayer works.
CnC3 Tiberuim Wars Patched version review 2008-02-19
First i would like to say that I have been playing this series since Red Alert 2 and have played Tiberiun Sun and Firestorm as well as Renegade.
I have been playing CnC3 since the demo was released and have pained through all of the patches to its current patch of 1.09. (patch 1.10 forthcoming with no real major changes just minor tweaks)
My opinion of this game is that the graphics are much improved over previous titles of this series.
Single player missions are doable in one sitting...if you want to sit for hours on end. Ever since patch 1.09 where the economy was nerfed it is difficult to squeak by a couple missions that were originally programmed for a different economy structure.
Skirmishes are for killing time because the AI does the same thing in all difficutly levels.. rush for 10-20 mins then sit at their base waiting for you to kill them off.
Multiplayer is plagued with cheaters and hackers and I quit playing online months ago. And there is no signs of it stopping even though there are entries on the forums from the EA community manager to the contrary.
The forthcoming expansion Kanes Wrath looks "promising" and I will stop at that.
All in all its a fun game if you are into the RTS genre and with the mutliple difficulty levels and handicap feature..you can set yourself up with alot of scenarios to work thru...but without online play..its just plain not worth the trouble meaning that if you cannot use them online then you really do not know if your strat will actually work against a human opponent.
The Automatch feature was supposed to match you up with someone close to you skill and rank level..but it is broken and doesn't work like it was advertised to.
With exploits abound.. getting an honest match is a crapshoot at best.
If EA had addressed the cheating and exploit and hacking issues I would have ranked this game higher..but I am an online player and this game falls short of the hype given it pre release.
Good 2007-12-27
It was a good time waster while deployed. If you are looking for a game to kill some time and have a decent system this is it. Long gone are the days of westwood studios and real games htat people spent time makeing.
Try again, I am not impressed 2008-06-24
I have all of the C&C games plus their expansions. I have been waiting for this game for two years. I got it the day it came out, but, I did not get the C&C experience. I don't know where this game goes wrong, but, I was dissapionted
Graphics. Seeing as this game was on Game Trailer's list of the best looking games of 2007 as number three, I only wondered why? This game does not have the graphics that I was expecting.
Sound. Umm, no? Besides some nice sounding explosions/effects, the game did not really make an audio impression.
Gameplay. Yes, it is C&C, but not as fun. I remember getting Generals, that game was really fun. This game does not have as much fun in it
Plot. This was the highlight of the game! The story is first rate, involving and interesting. It even involves a new race from outer space, the Scrin. I am not giving any spoilers.
Multiplay. Bugged, I need a patch.
Replay. Unfortunately, since all the environments in the game are either deserts or urban areas, the gameplay gets pretty old. All the missions in the campaign revolve around killing the enemy, defending your base, or holding a territorial point.
If you are a hardcore C&C fan, get this game, but if not get C&C: Generals.
Graphics 6/10
Gameplay 6/10
Sound 6/10
Story 9/10
Multiplay 4/10
Replay 5/10
Stability: Stable, but downloading patches is a nightmare
Overall: 6/10 - Passable
Great Multiplayer Strategy Game! 2008-05-19
I can't get enough of this game.
I love to develop new strategies with my friends who own a copy both on Windows and Mac platforms.
The Internet component is great too, with automatic matching, simple-to-use configuration interfaces, and a ranking system to make the player feel like he is progressing.
I highly recommend this game for countless hours of strategy fun with friends at a LAN or on the Internet.
Great Game 2008-04-30
Great game. Played it many times, but the new updates give NOD an unfair advantage.
Great Game, but it has its flaws. 2008-04-20
Command and Conquer 3 is a great game, well worth playing. The Campaign is awesome, the hi-def cutscenes are beautiful, and the multiplayer is also great. The gameplay itself has a few flaws, though. Infantry units are basically worth nothing. They should've just called the game "Command and Conquer 3: Vehicle Wars" because that's what it is. Even though that is true, it doesn't really take too much away from the fun of the game. SO if you like RTS games, or you're a huge fan of the C and C series, I would recommend this game.
Exactly what a C&C Fan Expects! 2008-04-06
This game reminded me how much I like the C&C series. It is a cool, relatively fast moving, and incredibly fun strategy game. Maybe some would say it isn't the most sophisticated game, but I don't care. If I feel I need something that forces me to think more, I can always play chess. This game on the other hand makes you think enough, and then things move and you feel good about it.
Oh, and boy do things blow up! When you get a good attack going, the screen lights up wonderfully. It just feels like you pulled off something grand, and you just can't help but feel good about it all.
What I really appreciate is that this game updates the series to make it state of the art, yet still preserves the typical C&C vibe.
If you like C&C or these types of strategy games, give this one a go. If you haven't really gotten into these types of games yet, maybe this one is a good one to get started with...
