Review of Empire for those who like historical correctness

[Didz]

No, I'm saying that if they didnt release the game because it wasnt historically accurate to the level that Didz requires then we would have been denied it.

And all I'm saying is that if instead of producing a sub-standard historical game they had dropped the pretence and concentrated on making a good fictional game, it would have made no difference, and they would not have made themselves look so stupid.

How does didz being annoyed at a lack of historical accuracy equate to me being annoyed if it *is* accurate?

It doesn't your imagining things again.

The game isn't historically accurate end-of.

What's going on here? Does everyone here have a poor grasp of basic logic or is it just me?

not being angry because the game is not accurate != being angry because the game is accurate

Jesus.

Yep! your definately confused.

The point is that we wouldnt EVER get the game if we had to wait for the approval of every grognard before CA was allowed to release it.

Of course we would, it just wouldn't be a shoddy attempt at a historical one. I fail to see why this is causing you so much of a problem to grasp. Command and Conquer does not pretend to be a historical game but its still a good game. Why are you obsessed with the idea that CA have to pretend to make a historical game for it to be good. Stick a few wizards in and make it even more fun.
