Real War: Rogue States Critic Reviews

This is proof enough that a cliché rather than an original idea and a decent instead of excellent code and design can sometimes be sufficient for achieving success.

If you're looking for a real-time strategy title that takes a look at modern day warfare in a realistic fashion, this is probably about as good as you're going to get.

A tremendous improvement over its predecessor. It's just too bad that the original "Real War" needed way more improvement than this to make it a great game.

An improvement over "Real War," but only in parts. It's still a clumsy game to play with a major frustration factor.

The A.I. is far superior to the original, having gone from pathetic to passable.

With the poor storyline, unchallenging missions, and poor enemy AI, the single player portion of the game is totally disposable. With enough patience, players could find Rogue States worthwhile, in a multiplayer capacity.

The game's outdated look and obtuse artificial intelligence make it hard to recommend.

Having to deal with Rogue States' frustrating AI is a bit like playing a multiplayer game with some guy who keeps breaking up the game by walking away from his computer to grab a snack from the kitchen.

Rival Interactive had their chance to fix its onerous product, and for all the tweaks, it's still just not enough.

The same shabby AI and pathfinding that plagued the original have survived the trip. It's truly despicable that none of the problems were fixed.
