C&C3 conquering May 8th?

by David Dreger { Mar 29th 2007 at 12:45PM }

Canada's little brother to Best Buy, Future Shop has a release date listed for Command and Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars. Apparently the game will release on May 8th, 2007, but you can never tell with site just trying to nab pre-orders. In any case, it looks like Command and Conquer 3 will be joining the ranks of the other major titles coming at the cusp of summer. Will you be looking to get your Real Time Strategizing on in a couple scant months?

[Thanks, Colin]

ebgames has had 5/8 as the release date for a few months now.

Futureshop is actually more like failed older brother to BestBuy as they bought out the existing chain a few years back and have kept both store brands going as seperate entities.

And what does Sony have coming for the PS3 to combat the variety of 360 games in the next few months?

Sony fanboys, you can start sweating now.

Sorry, but your one or two decent exclusives don't justify the purchase.

Just took a break from playing it on the PC, but yeah, I'm gonna pick it up for the 360 too.
Damn this game is fun.

I'm not trying to hate or anything, but why get the game for two consoles? Different control schemes? More networks to play multiplayer on? Again, I'm just wondering, not trying to diss you or anything.

Also, do RTS games work on the 360 with the controller very well? I didn't play LOTR: BFME2 on the 360 because I had it for my PC. I've been a fan of RTS games on the PC for a while, just wondering if the transition is smooth.

I personally do not like Rts on consoles however, LOTR: BFME2 the controlls were ok i got use to it, will rent C&C see how that goes.

After playing BFME2 on the 360 recently (I originally played it on the PC) I decided to pick up C&C 3 on both systems just because with the 360 controller it feels like a completely different game. It's just as fun, but feels different.
Another reason is the fact that a lot of my friends have given up PC gaming in favor of console gaming, so I don't have as many people to play multiplayer with on the PC side of things.
It's the same reason I got Rainbow 6 Vegas on the 360. I would've prefered it on the PC but most of my friends would only buy the 360 version. I'll always prefer RTS games on the PC, but once you go through the tutorials on the 360 the controls are actually pretty good.
