    yes i am

    I've loved pretty much all of them - but then i'm a huge RTS fan anyway. I _even_ dared to enjoy generals/zero hour too - something that makes you an outside in the C&C forums

    i loved all the command and conquer games, although i hope they fix the LAN gaming, as trying to get red alert 2 to work across a network was just appauling!

    Still, the gameplay is always fantastic, i just hope they can keep the originality and create some fantastic new units.

    Im also lookin forward to supreme commander

    I luuuurve C&C, can't wait either. I don't care if people say they are all the same etc, it's C&C and you just can't help but love it.

    this is very cool, i loved playing red alert and c & c before it, wasnt too impressed with tiberian sun but red alert 2 was awsome
    heres hopeing that this will be just as good as the originals but maybe with a bit better AI as that was one thing that anoyed me, they were either really easy and predictible or it was just impossible

    jan 07? i guess i can wait for that

    Sounds good

    I'm still holding out for a better sequal to Red Alert..more in keeping with that style of play - but I guess since westwood don't exist we'll get another EA Pacific rendition similar to Generals, but with the original storyline.

    Don't get me wrong I love generals/zero-hour, and have got hours of play out of them - I just dislike the new interface (click on certain buildings to build certain things etc) - I much preferred the CnC style of building anywhwere at once, but only one building/unit at once etc...generals was way too much like Warcraft 3 and similar heh

    Yep me looking forward to it too, had much office fun with Generals/Zero Hour and the humour factor of the different units was great.

    "Can I have some shoes?"
    "Make my own road?"

    The sides were pretty well balanced too but rushing became a 'mare and the community feel apart under cheating, think we need Punkbuster or some thing similar. Also much better matching and forums software! I know EA have an agreement with GameSpy but try a little harder...please. After all, this could be a good way to capture hearts after the BF2 saga.

    After Generals? No, I'm not very excited. Red Alert 2 was the best of the series.

    looking forward to the new C&C, but I think I'm more excited about Supreme Commander and Medieval II, wasn't too impressed with generals really, hopefully the new C&C will do alot better.

    It's was not as good as Red Alert but you have to admit that generals was funny. I loved the shamless stereotyping, it's like playing the game of Team America at times.

    My favourites are still actually the original C&C for 'feel' and Red Alert for balance.

    lol Well some people act like it's a 'sacred' franchise and fail to see how much fun there was in generals - as someone said lots of pure comedy moments
