Cnc3

[monkey_spanker]

Have just bought CNC3 for PC and have to say it's pretty good. After the same old same old of RA2 etc this has taken things a good leap forward. I'm still crap at playing it though but at least when I die I look good.

i have played the demo and intend to get the full game

I loved the demo of this.


Great cast too!

Billy Dee Williams (Lando Calrissian), Michael Ironside (V, Starship Troopers, Total Recall, etc., & also Sam Fisher in Splinter Cell), Grace Park (Sharon in BSG), Tricia Helfer (No.6 in BSG), & Josh Holloway (Sawyer in Lost).


I'm not sure whether to get it for PC or 360 though. PC = cheaper, but playing via XBL on the 360 could be v good. Although the PC controls (kb/mouse) would prob. be better than using a control pad.

That's a tough call.
It's pretty hungry resource wise on the PC but what isn't these days. I agree with you on the control system but having played Oblivion on 360 found that quite easy to control. Mind you I've got Oblivion on PC & 360 and find the loading delays easier to handle on 360 for some reason.
Try a 360 demo if you can find one and see what you think.

Just like to add maybe not worth the extra for the Kane edition. Unless you like to watch 'making of' documentaries.

I think there's a 360 demo due out, so I'll take your advice & wait for that. Then I'll have a better idea of which version to get.

Im on ACT IV and getting whupped by aliens, there's hundreds of the little gits.

The 360 demo came out today... well, yesterday, as it's now Sat.


Just tried it (took a while to download - seems demand was quite high & XBL quite slow!).


Not bad.


Controls are a bit strange compared to mouse/keyboard, but seem to work well.


Has a training mission, teaching the basics & the controls, plus two single player missions (same ones as in the PC demo) & also an XBL multiplayer demo mission. Haven't tried the mp one yet.
