C&C Red Alert 3: In A World Without Nukes, At Least There Are Armored Bears

The storyline of Command & Conquer Red Alert 3 revolves partly around a mad scientist played by Peter Stormare (better known as Karl Hungus) mucking around with the space-time continuum. Somewhere along the way Albert Einstein gets eliminated from the historical picture which takes tactical nukes out of the military playbook. But that’s not to say that war in the world of Red Alert 3 can’t be a good time. The wrinkle in time results in new materiel like armored War Bears, Proton Colliders, Psionic Decimators and Orbital Drops. Hit the jump to check out the new trailer of weaponry. Or just click here if you just want to contemplate Gemma Atkinson’s (aka Lt. Eva McKenna) various talents. Read the rest of this entry »

EA Cans Production Of C&C Shooter, Tiberium

Unfortunate news in video game development land. EA has closed down production on the first person shooter offshoot of Command & Conquer, Tiberium. According to a post on Kotaku (they also got their hands on an internal memo circulated to the internal development team) the game just wasn’t up to par and wasn’t going to get there by its intended release date in 2010.

It’s more than a little disappointing that EA can find the money to hire a dozen high-priced actors to make dance remix videos of Command & Conquer Red Alert cut scenes but doesn’t want to spend the cash on fixing the kinks in Tiberium. The real lesson here? Even the C&C brand isn’t enough to support a game if it isn’t already firmly lodged in the warm, sales-generating bedrock that is Gemma Atkinson’s cleavage.
