“Command And Conquer”

This article is about the first Command & Conquer video game.

Command and Conquer 3 Novel Announced!

Westwood was eventually closed down in 2003 and absorbed into EA Los Angeles which has become the current development center for the ongoing Command and Conquer series.

Starting from the load-screens and straight on ’til morning, Command & Conquer is one of the most brilliantly designed computer games I have ever seen.

Tiberium Wars is Command & Conquer at its best, and an absolute blast for series fans and newcomers alike.

Command & Conquer is a video game franchise, mostly of the real-time strategy style as well as two first-person shooter games based on the former.

One of the quintessential titles of the modern real time strategy genre, Command & Conquer’s gameplay mechanics will typically require the player to construct a base and then acquire a flow of resources, in order to fund the ongoing production of various forces to assault and conquer the opponent’s base with.

EA and Del Rey have announced they are working on a novel for Command & Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars.

The 1996 title of Command & Conquer: Red Alert, otherwise of the Red Alert series, was made the prequel to the original Command & Conquer game by Westwood Studios, establishing Red Alert as the prologue of the entire Tiberium story arc.

Command & Conquer: Tiberian Dawn is a 1995 real-time strategy video game produced by Westwood Studios for MS-DOS and released internationally by Virgin Interactive.

The two new titles of the franchise, Tiberium and Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3, are also being developed for PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.

The Command & Conquer series was initially developed by Westwood Studios between 1995 and 2003, with development being taken over by Electronic Arts with the liquidation of Westwood Studios in 2003.

Set in an alternative history Earth within the year 1995, Command & Conquer tells the story of two globalized factions; the Global Defense Initiative of the United Nations, and the ancient quasi-cult, quasi-state organization known as the Brotherhood of Nod, becoming locked in a mortal struggle for control over a mysterious resource known as Tiberium.

The origin of the Command & Conquer franchise, the Tiberian series originally features two factions of globalized power and influence the Global Defense Initiative of the United Nations and the ancient quasi-cult, quasi-state organization known as the Brotherhood of Nod becoming locked in a mortal struggle for the future of the world.

While the United Nations’ GDI focuses on research on attempting to mitigate the damage the Tiberium crystals increasingly begin to cause to the Earth’s peoples and ecosystems, Nod’s position is to embrace Tiberium as a gift from God and the herald of a new age for humanity.

GDI units are intended to be sturdy and are often more powerful than their Nod counterparts, at the cost of being more expensive and having slower movement.

On August 31, 2007, current publisher and owner of the C&C franchise Electronic Arts made Command & Conquer freely available for download from their official website, to mark the franchise’s 12th anniversary.

For now we will bring you plenty of great information, screenshots, trailers, and whatever is available for you to digest.

Unlike its predecessors, the plot line of Command & Conquer: Generals is completely unrelated to the other games of the Command & Conquer series.

Electronic Arts is doing a superb job of delivering on this much anticipated real time strategy game, thank you EA!
