| KungKras said: Tiberian Sun and its expansion are so brilliant. Easily one of the defining games of the RTS golden age. The limited unit production and structure building really made those games a bit more about the strategy than Blizzard and Ensembles games. Such a shame it went downhill after EA bought westwood. I read somewhere that if EA hadn't bought Westwood, the mutants would have been their own playable faction in Tiberian Sun. |
It's a shame as well since half of Westwood went to EA which got disbanded after C&C 4, EA then tried to merge a version of Bioware into a newly created Victory studios specifically created for a new C&C Generals 2 title, then merged with the other Bioware to become Bioware Victory (not the same Bioware that made ME). After a year or two of testing with fans they just out of nowhere cancelled the game and dissolved the two studios they merged together because they felt they couldn't make a new C&C for the fans (which seems like bull when you go to great lengths to merge two studios and spend two years with an Alpha and trailers showing off Frostbite with an RTS title). It's been a few years now since they cancelled generals 2 and about nearly 6 years since C&C 4, I pretty much consider C&C to be a dead franchise, at least the other half of Westwood are still alive and they made Grey Goo, which while not the best RTS I've played in years is still better than not having one.
