GS:
Let me admit something to you my friends, before I even get into this review. The last game that even comes close to Etherium that I played was Command and Conquer back in the mind nineties and I was awful at it, I had no talent at all for managing squads, or building resources. I was a platformer guy and I am fine with that.
While it is not a bad game, for the price, there are numerous titles which do Etherium's best elements better, and often with: cleaner language, less stability issues, better maps, and a far more capable A.I.
If you fancy some free RTS this week then now might be the time to give Etherium a look. It's entirely ours to play for nothing at all until next Monday, July 20th. It's also been discounted 50% for the promotion.
Outpost building, resource management, fancy sci-fi units to unleash upon our enemies... the only thing to top that would be giant colossi. Oh wait, it does have giant colossi.
GamingLives takes a look at Tindalos Interactive's real-time and turn-based strategy game.
"Company of Heroes, a game that was released nearly ten years ago, offers a better single played and multiplayer experience, with improved graphics and audio. I’m still playing that today and, unfortunately I probably won’t remember Etherium in ten years’ time."
