Description official descriptions

It's the year 2140, earth is almost completely destroyed after numerous wars and environmental catastrophes, and the people primarily live underground. The two enemy parties are the United Civilized States and the Eurasian Dynasty. In this RTS game, both are trying to conquer as much land as possible.

Earth 2140's game concepts overlap with those of the Command & Conquer lineage - mine resources, build units, and send them into battle with an enemy which must be tracked down. The two sides have different units, with the UCS advantaged by its Mercs and robotic infantry. There are cinematic cutscenes for each mission

A surprisingly good RTS game.

The Good
The story. if you're a sci-fi fan, than you'll love it. You get two campaigns. You get some surprising variety from the missions. You'll love commanding some enormous battlemech like machines against legions of troops. The sound effects are good and really enhance your game experience. The graphics are very nice for a game of this period and it is kind of sad that it has not been more widely recognized.

The Bad
The only problem I had worth mentioning here was how difficult it was. The game is very tough, even the first few missions.

The Bottom Line
A surprisingly good RTS game and you should get it if you find it in the bargain bin.
