The RTS game [Act of War](http://www.atari.com/actofwar/) was recently released in the US. Have any Dopers had a chance to play it yet?

I tried the demo a while ago and thought it was reasonably fun but I wanted to wait for a longer/multiplayer demo to get more of a feel for the game.

So, for anyone who played the full version: What do you think of it? How does it compare to C&C Generals? Anything new, terrific, or just plain cool? Anything you especially _dislike_ about it? Is it just Yet Another Mediocre RTS?

Just wanted to hear some thoughts. Thanks 🙂
