Command and Conquer 4

I believe it's just called Mechanical Man! The original Hell March was awesome, never played the 2nd RA, so no idea what the 2nd version sounds like!

I thought it was, but it isn't apparently, was looking for it on itunes, was it on the original or was it from tiberiun sun? I can't remember, lol.
 
Nevermind, used my google fu, and apprently it's off tiberian dawn, but I'm still sure I can remember it off a different C&C game.

EDIT: Used better google fu, and apparently it's called "Target" on the original C&C soundtrack, I thought so, as I don't think I've played tiberian dawn, lol. Just bought it on itunes now, lol.

^ Both great games.

First I've saw of this game, watched half that campaign video and couldnt take anymore, looked truely awful.
 
Apparently, they've taken a few ideas from Dawn of War II / Company of Heroes, etc etc. Where you don't have a base, like you know it from the older C&C games, but you just have a HQ and you upgrade / build everything from it. Which completely takes away from the whole "Commanding" and going forth and "Conquering" aspect of the game if you ask me, haha.

Either way, I'm probably going to be buying it to see how it all ends - because let's be honest, who's not at least a little interested to see where Kane comes from, or what his deal is, eh?
 
C&C - Great fun. Made in the same spirit as Dune, but with tiberium and Kane.
C&C: Red Alert - Much fun, another new application of the successful base building formula.
C&C: Tiberian Sun - Touted as the best of the series, not sure i disagree tbh. Brilliant game :D
C&C: Red Alert 2 -Another contender for the best of the series. Included a great variety of units, maps and countries to play as which just keeps you coming back for more.
C&C Renegade - Nod soldiers, guns with which to kill them and you can go inside the Hand of Nod. What's not to like? :D
C&C: Generals - I liked this game a lot. I know lots of people had trouble with it and some just didnt enjoy it, but I had a lot of fun with it.
C&C3: Tiberium Wars - Great fun. I found it to be a good update to the C&C franchise with an interesting story, a happy level of graphical detail and gameplay which remained true to previous titles.
IMO, Kane's Wrath was a great addition to C&C3. It added new units, strategies and even a whole new way to play the game and conquer the world.

C&C: Red Alert 3 - I'm going to go on a quick off-topic rant here. Yes, I enjoyed all of the previous C&C games and I'm very much aware that historically the FMVs have catered more to the..male demographic of gamers. Red Alert 3 decided, however, that this would end up being one of its big 'selling points'. After all, who wouldnt want to play a game with (possible spoilers) this at the end, right? :rolleyes: But perhaps i'm just being prudish. It's just this kind of thing really puts me off.
(oh and substandard level and unit design etcetcetc)


On to C&C4 first impressions:
Command and Conquer games have been based on a winning formula that has worked since the days of Dune.
The challenge was in building a productive and well protected base (or maybe more than one :eek:) in one location while securing and protecting resources in various locations around the map.
Now our base is already there in one neat little package, and we can move it wherever we like. (do we even collect tiberium in this game? :confused:)
I'll give C&C4 its fair chance, but what appealed to me most about C&C games (and other RTS games such as SupCom and TotalA..can I mention dune again? :D) seems to have been stripped away. :(
