In the name of Kane! The Command & Conquer series continues to thrive with Command & Conquer 3: Kane?s Wrath. As the expansion pack to the critically-acclaimed and fan favorite, Command & Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars, this Real-time Strategy (RTS) game returns to the Tiberium Universe with Kane at the center of an epic new single player campaign spanning 20 years ? from the rebirth of the Brotherhood of Nod after the Second Tiberium War through the dramatic events of the Third Tiberium War and beyond. This story will be told through a new set of high-definition, live action video sequences starring a celebrity cast including Joe Kucan, playing the megalomaniac leader of the Brotherhood of Nod, alongside new talent Natasha Henstridge and Carl Lumbly. With your help, Commander, the Dark Messiah may rise again!

bit-tech Review

"There are still problems – we'd have loved it if it was possible to zoom out just a tiny bit more for example and the multiplayer side of things does feel like more of the same and is essentially untouched, but by and large Kane's Wrath represents an excellent step forward for both EA and the franchise.

Do we recommend you pick up a copy of Kane's Wrath? Kind of. If you've not already got a copy of Tiberium Wars then, to be honest, it isn't really worth it. You're obviously not a big strategy fan and you'd be spending a lot of money for an expansion pack which isn't standalone.

On the other hand, if you've already got the original game then picking up Kane's Wrath is a definite must – if only because you get a beta key for Red Alert 3 - and that always goes down smooth!" - 30th March 2008

Time with product: 6 Months

Strengths: Even more maps to play.

Weaknesses: None.

Summary: This expansion pack is for the C&C3 player who just can't get enough of that game. So needless to say, I really enjoyed playing a bunch of new maps. If you loved playing the original C&C3, you certainly will welcome even more of what you love.

Rating: Rating 6 6

Time with product: 7

Strengths: A few more units, sub groups within the three fractions, and more single player campaigns.

Weaknesses: Single player campaign only showcased Nod's side of story and online player crashes or goes out of sync

Summary: Overall its a decent expansion pack with additional units and provided additional background information on the conflict between Nod and Global Defense Initiative. The new units provided a new twist while the new fractions aid in promoting new strategies. I really hated when you playing an online session with a friend and game goes out of sync making all efforts futile.
