Even the install sequence is to be marvelled at. Between each mission is a superbly rendered cut sequence, featuring digitised actors and computer graphics the like of which I've not seen before on a game of this ilk. GlitzĬ&C is very professionally put together.
#EMULATOR FOR COMMAND AND CONQUER ULTIMATE COLLECTION TV#
The value of TV as a propoganda medium for both sides becomes clear quite early in the game, with NOD hell bent on turning world and UN opinion against the GDI.
#EMULATOR FOR COMMAND AND CONQUER ULTIMATE COLLECTION MOVIE#
The intro sequence heightens your game expectations - short movie clips from different cable TV channels put you into the mood of the world the game is set in. It looks quite similar to the Dune II manual, but then I guess it would! Glossy and well presented, very much like the game as a whole.

The manual is as complete as you could probably want. And as C&C comes on 2 CDs, you can play a 2-player game on 2 PCs with just one purchase of the game - nice one Westwood! While C&C is still a challenging and enjoyable game playing through the missions, the immense satisfaction of hearing the guy sat opposite squealing as you nuke his construction centre is second to none. This makes network play, with up to 4 players, a rather awesome experience, and probably the most fun part of C&C, if you have the hardware available. However, if you choose network play you are able to have every weapon buildable, right up to satellite beams (GDI) and nukes (NOD). For each side, winning overall means winning about 15 scenarios, but the scenarios you get vary to an extent on how well you do in each mission, and the difficulty of the mission can depend on the success of a previous mission. This means you can't play with the advanced stuff too early, and you get new units to learn the pros and cons of as the game develops. These two forces compete for control of the world, and the invaluable tiberium (which for Dune II fans equates rather similarly to spice).Įach side has as arsenal of weaponary at its desposal, most of which only becomes available as the scenarios progress. For another the protagonists this time are the Global Defence Initiative (the good guys) and the Brotherhood of NOD (the bad guys).
For one, it's set a small time into the future rather than in the Dune world. While C&C might to some people be Dune III, it's rather more than that.
If you've played Dune II you'll be very familiar with the control system used in C&C. C&C was hyped a lot, and its release date slipped a few times, but in my view it's been worth the wait. Whether C&C will have staying power is a debatable question, but its initial impact is rather explosive. Very few games have that initial appeal, but also very few games stay at or near the top 10 for very long. C&C has been out now for a couple of weeks and has already nipped up to number 2 in the unofficial Internet Top 100 game chart.
