Anyone played Emperor: Battle For Dune? These guys look very Tleilaxu influenced... very nice.

I agree RaiDK, they do look Tleilaxu infulenced. I'm not saying it is a bad thing though!

Can anyone tell me what magazine is this from? And will it be available to Canadians and when?

Games for Windows magazine.

Seriously, go to the EA C&C3 forum right now... Someone's put pics of cut scenes, Scrin aircraft (Which look like BANSHEES!!!) and some other stuff.

We finally see the real reason for the GDI's abandoning of hover and mech tech: The Scrin get it :)

Looks like the Scrin get a cool laser tank as well... They actually look like they will be a good side to play. Organic yet hightech.

Anyone played Metal Fatigue? They remind me a lot of Neuropia...

Star Gate eat your heart out! I like the portals, which probably serve as a kind of war factory.

Looks good.

These are going to weed out the sucky expansion modders from the good ones.

I like it, although the hair roll bugs (shock troopers) annoy me a bit - unless that's a weapon they're concealing there.
Lifes a shit.. deal w/ it..its impossible to have a good day wow fuck this gay earth much??

Well, now I saw this, I belive they might actually do a good job on the scrin. But what really pissed me off when I read news about CnC recently "there will be an addon is BEING WORKED ON" which, of course means, it'll be a second generals, half of the good features will be "scrapped" and reintroduced in the addon. I'm sure.

Oh and as for the gate: either I smell starcraft or I smell teleport attack (done in a lot of games but I still love it :))

GENERATION 8: The first time you see this, copy it into your sig on any forum and add 1 to the generation. Social experiment.

All we can do is hope. The scrin looks good, but let's hope they stabilize SAGE a little , because then, we'd be shitted all over again, like with generals.

That sounds true but remember, the earlier we get an expansion, the earlier we get Shockwave II to make it better :)

Yep, just need a purple and green color scheme.

What was the name of the old race they were digging up? Hegoth or something?

Very nice, now fix the damn Brotherhood. Now. Fuck they piss me off.

GDI & Scrin = the best though

The only aparent downfall for this game would be the high system requirements.

But enough with the negatives. Kick-ass screens. I might like the Scrin/Aliens more than the GDI...

I can see the direction they've taken with the sides now:

GDI: Modern military force
Nod: Futuristic Army
Scrin: Organic alien force
