Looks like (http://www.flickr.com/photos/43392327@N00/131265061/) a PS Lightning and Mosquito :lol:

I am cautious personally since Westwood is not involved anymore.

I think he meant corny shit pancakes.

Because, you can flip shit, and you can flip pancakes. Now, eat corn first, and then flip shit pancakes. Presto.

Thank Peace for that wonderful visual, not me.

It better be better then generals. I love the C&C series (except for renegade). I've been playing them since they came out. I would only hope to see it constantly improving.

why exactly is Westwood not involved with this one?

Westwood was eaten up and shat out by EA a few years ago. There's probably like 1 or 2 Westwood guys left cleaning toilets or some shit.

And this game better not be made by some EA wannabes.

I've been obsessed over the C&C series ever since RA2 came out in 1999..my favorite out of all of them is either C&C2 or Aftermath. I always knew they would start work on C&C3, just never thought they would fire Westwood. If this game is like Generals I will never forgive EA for fucking it up :( The screenies look like shit, but I cant fucking wait! I want to find out what happens next in the storyline.

I only mentioned generals because it was an EA game. If you want Westwood go play Star Wars: Empire at War.

Hmm.. Good memorys playing C&C..

I think I was playing RA:2 when WTC happened.. And it just happened to be on that mission where you play as the soviets attacking these 2 large skyscrapers (I think in Chicago)...

I felt bad... really bad..

Ohj shit!@! Mammoth tanks will be back then right?!

Indeed! Honestly... I'd love to see a game with buildings and the such within normal proportions...

It looks like they're in some type of power armor though. So you could say it is proportionate.

They're in some kinda power armor.

I think the buildings are very very small however, look at the size of a car compared to those offices!

of course in all fairness if you had everything porportinate. it would be fucking hard to have your city battles. your view would be blocked by all the tall buildings and you could hardly see your troops.

C&C's infantry have always been way too big. Don't try to defend it, they are ridiculously large, power armour or not :p

defend nothing, I've never had a problem with it. you do. I like it the way it is.

There's a simple way to fix that... building transparency (ala Sims, where the walls get cropped if they're in your camera angle...)
