Awsome news. I'm not too excited for this title , until I can see gameplay first hand. Only time will tell.
(Also , EA: Challenege everything Slogan will be quite weird with a C&Cgame.)

My topic about the rumor was correct. I'm excited, but at the same time I'm not. I'm excited that C&C has continued, but I'm not excited that EA Games is the maker. Let's just hope they don't fuck it up, which is a 90% chance they will.

the reality of what... they are making another CNC game?
EA does suck HARD! At least people who made the original C&C are working on it. Renegade single player was so homo-erotic, I really dont know. It was SOOO BAD!
There better be live action FMVs

How is this news item different from the other one? If that one was fake, this one could easily be as well, they just added "someone at EA told us"...
Also, the game will suck.

The people who made the original C&C are mostly at Petroglyph now.

EA's Business Model: The customer does not matter unless it interfere's with financial income. Making money is the sole function of our business. Nothing else matters.
This leads to half assed games in every facet possible.
An example is why C&C 3 will probably suck. The General's engine is not that great, but they'll use it again to save money. They will either use crappy CG for the movies, or just wont have any. In my mind this is like Starwars with CG Luke Skywalker. The story-line as it was intended to be will no doubt be re-written for mass appeal. As soon as sales die out they will stop supporting the game, because they are not making any money any more. In other words, CNC will be robbed of all its integrity in favor of a making more money for an company that all ready has WAY too much.
By buying an EA product you support this model, and I strongly encourage you to not buy another EA product again. They will buy every last company, there will be no healthy competition among businesses. You will be left with a company that lacks all sense of creativity, and just wants your money. If you give it to them its a downward spiral. Break out of it now.

Yeah, they're so half-assed, that's why 90% of their games are getting 4 out of 5s in most game reviewing magazines and shows.

That's because magazines are often OMG GRAFIX!!!!11 and don't give a shit about things known as replayability.

You want to know what is wrong to my opinion with Generals?
First of all the SP is not very inspiring, louzy storyline and not many missions. But oh wel, if the SP isn't really that good let's look at multiplay. This game could be a good MP game, if they actually used their brains when making a MP. I think it's a shame that they released the game without it being able to check who was disconnecting in a game. Come on, after so much experience with RTS games, you should know by know, that people will use disconnection, as a way not to loose points. Oh well, people at first didn't really had to disconnect. EA made it easier, why not put the stats on the users computer. That way instead of modding cars in NFS:underground people can now modify there scores, so they look uber 1337. But oh well, maybe it wasn't so bad if they actually made a team of people who watched over who was cheating, Lke they promised in the beginning.
Why would I buy a game, just to wait a few months, for it to be actally patched in a way that it's playable online, and with a ladder. If I waited those months I could have bought it cheaper.
The sad thing is, I actually read somewhere, how proud someone of the team was. For actually develop a game in such a short time as they did. You know why you were so FAST!!!!, because it needed a few more months, after release to be actually playable.
Oh yeah, and there new forums are a joke.
Size doesn't matter.

Haha, reviews. They're clueless as to the real reasons why Zero Hour and to a lesser extent Generals sucks--support. The history or lack thereof is not really worth explaining. And reviewers wouldn't really know about the games that came behind the C&C name.
If you've played the first C&C, RA, TS, and Emperor (though it is not a C&C, but it still had the WW label on it), you can't tell me that when you look at Generals, you haven't been spoiled by the WW games that came before Generals. If you've never experienced the old games (which is really impossible these days, considering how advanced games have come), it's really too bad, because you don't know what you're missing. You'd think Generals is a good game because your standards are not as high as those who've been with C&C for so long.
If EA designed Generals to be primarily a single player game (considering the vast majority bought the game never intending to go online), just think how incredibly badly EA is shortchanging its players. And if EA designed Generals to be an online game, then where has the support for it gone? The game is just not strong enough in ANY aspect to hold together a significant community.

Do you think this applies to EA's support as well?

yeah reviews are just one person's opinion. They reviewer is the first person to play it, so they get no one else's perspective, and they have about 2 weeks to decided whether a game is any good or not. These reviewers are not gamers, they look at playing games from a work standpoint rather than a hobby standpoint.
