PC Game: C&C Generals Zero Hour

Saturday was full of driving around to find all kinds of things, just to find out it was mostly a waste of time. At least I got hold of two capitvating comic books. :)

Sunday I was supposed to get a visitor (client), but that was postponed due to a boat show. That visitor will come this evening.

The afternoon consisted of visitign a friend, who had a visitor and a client visiting at the time. The client had a problem with an iPod that disconnects automatically shortly after connecting it. That iTunes was the cause of a lot of those issues.

Later on we played a bit of Command and Conquer Generals Zero Hour. No matter what some people say about the game: it is a very good game, except for the annoying intro videos that EA wants everybody to watch all the time. Unlike WarCraft 3, the resources are more or less infinite. The computer can be a nasty and an easy opponent.

The different specialities of the Generals take a different way of thinking to properly utilise them against others. The GLA seemed very different from the USA and China in regards to playing, and they don't have an airforce, but they don't actually require micromanagement of power stations and airbases. To make up for the lack of airbases, they have their tunnels, which have to be built first. The tunnels can be lifesavers.
