Command & Conquer Fans

I received an e-mail earlier yesterday, but only read it just now and I wanted to share the happiness with any fans out there.

We all know that Command & Conquer games have gone from amazing to good, to horrible. The latest game was absolute trash. Not even worth playing. I play through every game I can but that game.. I didn't even play through 5 levels. It was THAT BAD. It let most of us down.

Rejoice! There will be a new chance for Command and Conquer to revive from the ashes!

I give you..Victory Games!

Enjoy the read. ;)

It sounds really good, but i'm going to be skeptical and wait. They usually sugar coat it, so let me see the product first.

Re: Command & Conquer Fans

they did not say much except "new C&C game"... not even if they intended to go back to the older style or if they intend to maintain the current style...

Generals had pretty much nothing to do with command & conquer...
It can be summed up in one sentence...
"Look at the hyper-technological Americans beat the communist Chinese and the terrorist Muslims."

the engine was decent and all, but the story was hopelessly poor and generally boring... Not even close to worth of the C&C name...

Agreed. Completely. My buddy and I used to have so much fun on Red Alert 2 and Yuri's Revenge. I loved rocking a quick rush with Navy Seals/Engineers. :lol:

Re: Command & Conquer Fans

my only problem with C&C is that its hard to make it playable in LAN,especially Yury's Revenge...and when you actually make it work you will get tons of errors and the game will crash.
But yes, i admit, they are fun to play :D

Re: Command & Conquer Fans

story-wise, the tiberian games are the best, but fun-wise, red alert 2 is best...

we do recall something about wanting to acquire "Command & Conquer: Red Alert – Counterstrike" back in 2005, simply to answer silly gamer classmates "CS" when asked what we were playing... but we never did...
