It was the working title of the followup to Tiberian Sun before Westwood studios closed. Then EA decided in their ignorance to upend everyhting and "redefine" c&c. We see how well that worked out...
Less and less people know this old school stuff. Sad really

...how in the world is that sad?

It obviously is sad when less then 50% of your memory is filled with computer game-facts. Duh.
Btw, kirby; do you have a dictionary sitting next to your keyboard all the time?

Funny you say that because it isn't true. Tiberian Twilight was NOT a working Title for the 3rd game. Never was. What it was, was a tentative title that the C&C community came up with. The actual working title for Westwood's C&C3 was called Command & Conquer: Incursion. (Or so we can tell from a few sources such as released concept art.)
And as a matter of fact, most people don't even realize they do this but they are all saying "OMG C&C3 IS SUX CAUSE EA MADE <Insert gameplay mechanic, art decision, unit design> LIKE THAT WHEN WW WOOD OF MADE IT LIKE THAT <insert idea>"
That statement is totally wrong. EA used Westwood's concept art to plan out Tiberium Wars. The Nod Power Plant you see in C&C3 was actually a concept that Westwood created. And did you know that it was Westwood's idea to cut the Mammoth MKII? Yes, as a matter of fact EA's Mammoth Tank in C&C3 is basically a rounded form of Westwood's C&C3 Mammoth Tank! (Or so I can tell from this early tech demo screen shot of the UI: http://www.cnc-source.com/forums/index.php?autocom=gallery&req=si&img=60 14)
My point is, people should not complain about stuff in C&C3 and blame EA when they don't know where the idea had roots in. This is why I keep on saying that people don't really hate EA, they just say they do because they think they are cool.
