I have just heard that the name of C&C3 Is Tiberian Twilight, has anyone else heard anything about this game? I would be very interested.

C&C was originally meant to be a trilogy, hence the names, C&C:TDawn, C&C:TSun, and C&C:TTwilight.

The names are old news, and since Westwood is... gone... ...

Well, C&C Generals had nothing to do with Westwood, and it was a great game, although I do think the other command and conquer games were better.

I guess it'll be another molestation of strategy gaming just like all the other "westwood" games.

Considering the monumental contribution that Dune II and C&C: Tiberian Dawn were, I demand you take that back...

I will take it back on Dune II, that was quite possibly the mother of all strategy gaming, but after that it was downhill.

Command and Conquer brought the formula of Dune II to a hilt, and it was so damn fun...

I didn't know that Westwood went kaput also.

I heard rumuors that C&C Twilight is humans vs aliens , the aliens that introduced tiberium into earth.

Do not forget the Red Alert series. [img]smile.gif[/img] Westwood was the first company that got my devotion. While others were playing Blizzard RTSes, I was still playing with the C&C games.

Sigh... ...

Oh, and I find the comment that Westwood "molested" strategy gaming to be amusing, since Westwood are considered the pioneers of RTSes.

In the same vein that ID (DOOM) are considered the pioneers of FPSes. Even Blizzard acknowledged that they were inspired by Westwood (the Dune series).
