I don’t think this is a good move by EA, true the game play and graphics are freaking awesome, they have failed the Command and Conquer community in one critical area…
They completely changed the story line, tiberium was a toxic plantlike life form, not a radioactive material, if it were so radioactive that it destroys all it touches, how would you explain the mutants, and tiberium life forms spawned from it?Also, its NOD not NAD, the aliens, a.k.a. the Scrin, launched the tiberium meteorite at earth, it didn’t draw them to Earth, and GDI, which sported high-tech mechs in Tiberium Sun/Firestorm, now have downgraded to using tanks. Sure i missed the classic Mammoth, but i thought the Mammoth Mark II was much cooler. Finally, The GDI’s objective in the other games was to stop growth of tiberium, and control it, not put up with it.
I would give it
* Graphics : 5/5
* Gameplay: 4/5
* Story : -100/5 (lol ) since they changed the story almost entirely.

This is an awesome game in its own right, but it disgraces the tradition of the command and conquer label, and muddles Westwood’s great name. It is my opinion that EA is becoming a monopoly, with its pursuits targeted only at profit, instead of pleasing the community as a whole.

One more note, it appears EA is recycling weapons and names from old Westwood games, the iron curtain? In Red Alert and Red Alert 2, it was a Soviet super weapon that made all buildings and vehicles invulnerable, but massacred any infantry it was unleashed upon. I think they need some new ideas instead of just recycling old material that was made by Westwood….

Nice review there I so can’t wait for the real game as the demo version I had would not install and would not install on my friends computers either. I pretty much grew up with CnC so Tiberium Wars is a natural progression for a game that I would play.

C & C has always been one of the top serious that I have followed since the very first one. I guess many of its long term fans would be awaiting for it here as well.

Looks promising. I haven’t played Command & Conquer game since last year. I think it’s time to take a break from the online MMORPG and go back to old-school RTS games.
