The first two C&C games in the Tiberium storyline were my favorites of all the RTS games I've played, so this just might be a game that will get me back into the genre again.

RTS games are harder to play on a gamepad.Lukas wrote:the best thing about this game is... its coming out for xbox 360!!!!!!!
I've never heard of a RTS that didn't play much better with a Keyboard and mouse configuration...especially since you really Need 87 'quick keys' when commanding an entire army at once, and multi-tasking construction, defense and attack.
Playing RTS on a console (without keyboard and mouse support) is a diluted experience, no matter how pretty the graphics look.

Regardless its still not any better than a keyboard, on a keyboard you can set squad numbers for what ever unit, for example all infantries can be squad 1, all tanks can be squad 2, all snipers are squad 3 and etc. Plus you can react faster with a mouse. Any way I love C&C My favorite being Red Alert 2 and Tiberium Sun, Ive never played the first. The problem with Tiberium Sun was that there wasnt much strategy as Red Alert 2 in the single player campaign. Usually you get a certain number of units for the level and you make do with what you have to complete the level and thats it. But this Tiberium Wars is on my watch list.
I have:
Tiberium Sun
Tiberium Sun Firewall
Red Alert 2
Yuris Revenge
Renegade
Generals.

i played that lotr game, and two notes:
-the factions weren't very deep, all the units were pretty basic.
-the controls mad the game playable, but a mouse and keypad would have been 100,000,000,000x better.
but if it comes out for xbox i wont have to by a new pc to play it XD XD XD XD XD XD XD
***firewall? dont you mean firestorm? AND WHY HAVN'T YOU BOUGHT THE FIRST DECADE!?!?!?!?!?!
