More information

Empire Earth III takes the legendary real-time strategy franchise and gaming genre to new heights. The ground breaking new game truly puts the EARTH into Empire Earth by introducing a spectacular global perspective to conquering the world. The globe will serve as the battleground between the 3 unique factions (Western, Middle-Eastern, and Eastern) that have been created with a stunning new artistic vision. All of human history and beyond - across the entire globe - Empire Earth III commands all!

Freeform Global Gameplay – Empire Earth III lets players battle across the entire globe as they make their bid for world domination. Gameplay unfolds in a richly detailed Earth made up of 60 skirmish maps (provinces) representing real locations on the globe or create a randomly generated globe to conquer. Players can choose both the starting location and starting era.
Unique Customisable Civilisations – Civilisations are divided into three factions Western, Middle-Eastern, and Eastern. Each faction has its own unique tech tree, units, structures, and game play style. Each faction's tech tree allows players to create completely custom civilisations of their own choosing.
Fully Persistent World – Unlike any other RTS, Empire Earth III will let players keep their spoils of war. As the player builds their empire across the globe their cities and outposts will grow and improve. Their units and structures will evolve over time. You keep what you create, so long as someone else doesn‘t take it from you.

Worst game ever. I've bought some real clunkers in my time, but this one takes the cake. Useless pathfinding for units, terrible game play, atrocious voice-acting that gets on your nerves, pastel coloured units, units that can't find their way out of a dead-end valley, and three near-identical civilisations. Game review sites have rated this consistently below 50% - some as far low as 35%, only to give credit for EE3's global strategic section - which was done better by Rise of Nations FOUR YEARS AGO.

Do not buy this game. Spend your time emailing Mad Doc Software and Sierra and tell them how much this game sucks, and save yourself a lot of money.
