Rating: - LOADS OF FUN!
This game is far better than most FPS games - the teamwork and strategy of online play make it quite interesting and unique. You really need to communicate with your team, cooperate and plan if you are going to win a match.
The campaign game is... well. I've never bothered to finish it. Buy this to play online. You won't regret it.
There is no better thrill than sneaking into your enemy base and, while they are busy blasting away at your airstrip you place a nuclear strike beacon right behind their power plant.. Muahahahahahha!
Rating: - Best game ever..
HehE i Dont have an amazon account...Well anyways back to the game. The Game C&C Renegade in my words is a good game. There are two teams you can be on which are GDI and NOD. NOD is red and GDI is yellow. Some of the maps that you start out with are Islands,Walls,Walls (Flying),Under,Volcano,the city one,and Hourglass. You can also download other maps from the internet that other people make that why if you see a gray map in the game it means you dont have it. When i say Flying it means your allowed to purchase helicopters and in the others your not allowed.

Rating: - This is not C and C close up
Okay yes this was a good game and all,but truthfully i was so disapointed to see that the characters looked nothing like what they were in the original c and c. In the original c and c the gdi infantry didnt look like a plumber. All the troops had on a modern solider oufit. The weapons may I say first are cool, but there not the m-16 or shoulder fired rocket launcher like in the original. The tanks and stuff there good with the exception of the artillery and humm-vee. The look nothing like in the original game. A second thing back to the weapons was that with the exception of the obolisk of light and ion cannon there were no laser weaponry. Also if nod had lots of lasers in 1999(yea 1999)then why didnt they have them in Command and Conquer Tiberium Sun for every solider. A DUH!!!
Rating: - One of the best attempts at a cross-genre approach
Greetings General - It looks like this time, we're going to need to get our hands dirty. That's right, this time there's no advantage in numbers, we need you to go in solo. Command and Conquer Renegade places you into the first shooter in the C&C universe. Playing the role of Nick "Havoc" Parker in your quest to stop Nod's most evil plot to date.
Gameplay: As far as first-person shooters go, this sits on the arcade side of the market. Everything from hit detection, weapon physics and enemy AI lacks what could be considered realistic direction. Yet, as far as arcade shooters go, this one has its merits. The enemy density is quite challenging at times, especially on the hardest settings, and their accuracy will give even a seasoned FPS gamer a run for their money. The downside is that the enemy AI reacts with more of a bot mentality than an 'intelligent' one. For those of you unfamiliar with bots, this means that regardless of the enemies using any cover or environmental awareness, they just come straight at you. Often in straight lines if you take the time to string them out. Their lack of intelligence is compensated by their inhuman accuracy. Any of lack of polish exhibited in the game is more than covered by it's definite C&C feel. As a GDI commando, you have access to weapons and vehicles made popular in the original C&C world. Whether you're driving a flame tank, or placing beacons for your ion cannon, it definitely feels like you're playing a small, albeit important, role to take down the Brotherhood of Nod.
Graphics: The game looks dated, even for only being from 2002, it is really blocky. The character and vehicle models have extremely low polygon counts. The FMV's between each level also use a modified version of the game engine and the eyes and mouths look completely off. However, I'm never one to downplay a game because of it's graphics unless that is all it has going for it. Just being able to walk around and inside a Hand of Nod, or being able to get inside a mammoth tank and crush the opposition is enough to satisfy anyone's visual needs.
Sound: Renegade uses a ton of sounds familiar to any C&C vets. Even the music is highly reminiscent of the original. All this adds to the feeling of being inside the C&C universe. The only downside is that because the sounds are old, at times it feels like your weapons really lack some oomph. You can unload 100 rounds from your assault rifle into an unwitting rocket soldier and the sound can make it feel like your shooting spitballs at an over-ripe watermelon.
Overall: This definitely has to be the best cross-genre attempt made by any gaming franchise. I was highly worried about buying this after having gone through X-COM's attempt at FPS, but I was pleasantly surprised. For the going price, this is definitely a must buy for any fan of the C&C series and barring a few bugs, the only downside to this game is the bot-style AI. Just make sure to update it ASAP and if you're looking to stretch your gaming dollar even further, be sure to try it multiplayer where you take part in a Tribes / Savage mix.
