Innovative gameplay plus amazing graphics equals RTS of the year contender.
No offline skirmish mode is disappointing. The Final Word One thing I was disappointed by was the lack of an offline skirmish mode. There is no Soviet campaign, so there is way for you to get a feel for the Soviet units without going online, which is a...

Nothing flexes our imagination like alternate history scenarios, and World in Conflict delivers one that has us on the edge of our seat. It’s the late 1980s, and the Cold War is far from over. The commies have already made a push to invade Western Euro...
Amazingly detailed battlegrounds; highly tactical. Also: Accessible and fun.
Online "support" class not particularly great.

The game itself though, is not a true real time strategy game. Perhaps its just the strategy purist in me, but when I think of this genre, I think of heavy hitters like Starcraft, Warcraft, Total Annihilation, and more currently Dawn of War, Company...

Awesome multiplayer; solid combined arms strategy model; fun single-player campaign; good storyline; great audio; voice chat support.
Occasional disconnects in multiplayer; still drawings during cut scenes; multiplayer dependent on teammates; skirmish AI.
