RUMOR: Command and Conquer 3 coming to PS3 and Wii?

Please make the ps3 version include usb mouse support.

If my PC blew up? I'd buy the version for the only "next-gen" (this gen?) console I cared to purchase. The PS3 of course!

if this game doesn't support keyboard and mouse on PS3, it can shove this up their you-know-where.

and for Wii users, are they going to dumb it down tho? and I don't think Wii will be fast enough to run this.

i would buy it if it had mouse and keyboard support. maybe a rental if it doesnt.

I would want to play it on NES with a Power Glove.

On Wii, the watered down graphics will surely be more than compensated by the use of the Wiimote.

I will require exactly:
1 Demo of this game
1 Bag of garlic parmesan kettle-cooked chips
1 Bottle of Jones Soda

At least the 360/PS3 versions will have "waggle" support due to supporting cameras(pointed at our crotches...get it? waggle?).

if it does come out on PS3 ill eat my hat (even though i dont own one).

>On Wii, the watered down graphics will surely be more than compensated by the use of the Wiimote.


Didn't they also say that about Far-Cry.

Wiimote doesn't not equal mouse and keyboard.

"Which version would you guys ultimately buy if your PC somehow exploded into tiny bits?"

Hmmm gee let me think about this... The major selling point of the game is the online skirmish mode. ONLINE!!! So I guess that would mean I would get it for the console with the BEST online capabilities. What a coincidence because that is the same system I will be picking it up for TODAY!!!

I'm thinking Bored was using hyperbole.

>10. I'm thinking Bored was using hyperbole.


you might call it "hyperbole", I call it "Nintendo philosophy"

Cool if it comes out for th ePS3 I will get it for that instead of the 360 version.

I definitive "maybe" but agreed, has to come with mouse and keyboard support (bluetooth may I add.... USB works great but no wires is better : )

i use a wireless usb mouse and keyboard. it can't be that hard to add usb support. bluetoth would be great but i htink sony needs to firm that up on their side of things first (in the xmb) to see that in games.

"Didn't they also say that about Far-Cry."

No. In fact, I recall everyone saying the opposite about Far Cry: Vengeance, even before it's release.

"Wiimote doesn't not equal mouse and keyboard."

Because you would know, being the almighty God of Wii. Give me a break. Even if the Wiimote didn't equal mouse/keyboard for this game, how would you know? Did you play the currently non-existent C&C3 Wii game?

"you might call it "hyperbole", I call it "Nintendo philosophy""

Silly kow. It'd be "Nintendo philosophy" if Nintendo was the company making horrible games. They're not. Its a few third-party developers who just want to port everything over as fast as possible. You should know that, considering your original example was Far Cry. Unless of course you're implying that every Wii game is like that, in which case, you're a moron.

Yeesh. The guy acts like he's never seen a shitty third-party game before.

>Because you would know, being the almighty God of Wii.
let's go with the idea of deduction, shall we?

And you would know to disagree with me? Yeah, because FPS games on Wii works flawlessly like ones on PC with keyboard and mouse combo.

or because when you accidentally take the pointer off TV, you NEVER go into an endless spin like you do in CoD3. I wonder if the PC version does that with keyboard an mouse. hmmmm

"And you would know to disagree with me? Yeah, because FPS games on Wii works flawlessly like ones on PC with keyboard and mouse combo."

Really? And since when was Command and Conquer a FPS franchise?

"or because when you accidentally take the pointer off TV, you NEVER go into an endless spin like you do in CoD3. I wonder if the PC version does that with keyboard an mouse. hmmmm"

Again, you're talking about a game that, as of now, doesn't even exist. You make it sound like its impossible for a RTS on Wii to act similar to a PC RTS. As if that huge assumption wasn't enough, you decided to base it on a FPS title.

>Really? And since when was Command and Conquer a FPS franchise?

who was talking about C&C? have I ever mentioned C&C in any of my post? All I'm saying is, Wiimote does not equal Keyboard and mouse. it's obvious in all games.

and frankly, it doesn't take a genius to see this game will SUCK on Wii (in sooo many ways, from graphic prowess to controls) unless you disagree otherwise, we can always just wait and see.

Are you two going to take off your training bras and start slapping the shit out of eachother with them?

"who was talking about C&C? have I ever mentioned C&C in any of my post? All I'm saying is, Wiimote does not equal Keyboard and mouse. it's obvious in all games."

If you're not talking about C&C, then why are you even talking? Did you you forget where you were? Read the title of this entry. As for the Wiimote not equalling keyboard/mouse, tell me how many RTS games you know about on Wii? After all, this is about a RTS (not a FPS). Prior to Lionhead being purchased by Microsoft, Peter Molyneux stated (in an episode of the now-cancelled G4TV.com) that the Wii is perfect for point-and-click games. While I would agree that such a statement doesn't PROVE anything, it sure gives a little more hope for the Wii.

"we can always just wait and see."

At least you finally said it. That's what I've been trying to tell you. You don't know because it doesn't exist. And if it does exist, you still don't know, because it isn't out yet. Wait and see.

>Are you two going to take off your training bras and start slapping the shit out of eachother with them?

why? would that turn you on? ;)

and yeah, that's why we are still using the barbaric method of solving an disagreement.. the Method of using words

Maybe they'll just release C&C N64 to the VC?

>Wii is perfect for point-and-click games

see, there's the difference, Wii is "theoretically" perfect for point and click games, if the motion sensor is perfect, which it isn't

In fact, Wii is even MORE perfect (if that's possible) theoretically for FPS games, but we all know how that turned out. :)

And as an aside WHY THE HECK ARE WE ARGUING ABOUT A GAME FOR GC 1 1/2 anyway. This is PS3Fanboy isn't it?

*shrugs*, Nextgen gamer here seems to be thinking C&C is the god sent for Wii because it will play flawlessly.

and as for Wii = GC1 1/2.. are you sure about that? so far, Best ranked GC game (RE4) is much better than best ranked Wii game (Zelda)

I have to say, it's more like GC .75. :)

Is it impossible for the Wii to better resemble mouse/keyboard in one genre than another? You can't keep using the FPS excuse when discussing RTS. Does C&C3 play like Perfect Dark: Zero?

"Nextgen gamer here seems to be thinking C&C is the god sent for Wii because it will play flawlessly."

You are aware that you were mentioning the Nintendo/Wii in posts 3, 9, and 12, correct? Its not like I just randomly started up about the Wii.

I also said nothing about C&C3 being a godsend. In fact, not but minutes ago, I just pointed out that you proved my point. Its a wait-and-see situation. And that's even if the game exists. Of course, through your vast knowledge of this entire situation, clearly that means C&C3 is coming to Wii.

If an infrared pointing device was superior to using a mouse and keyboard for playing RTS games it would have been implemented in this fashion on PCs a long time ago where the power and tech to implement such a device has existed for years.

Since it hasn't found a market in PC usage I would assume this is because it is not suitable for this type of game.

Instead of trying to convince yourself that the Wii controller is manna, spend some effort getting Nintendo to implement open standards that allow for a keyboard and mouse on that machine of yours.

"Instead of trying to convince yourself that the Wii controller is manna, spend some effort getting Nintendo to implement open standards that allow for a keyboard and mouse on that machine of yours."

The point obviously went right over your head. I'm not saying the Wiimote is just like mouse/keyboard. I'm not saying its as acurrate. I'm not even saying this game is any good (I despise the RTS genre). The entire point was that some people are jumping the gun on judging a game that, as far as we know, doesn't even exist. I don't consider the Wii 'my machine', considering I'm fortunate enough to play all three any time I want.

I have to say I agree with kingofwale. The wii remote sucks in first person shooters(and most other games too). Hell to be perfectly honest with you I have only played 2 wii games that didnt have shitty controls, Wario Ware and Zelda.

To get back on topic, I doubt it will support keyboard and mouse via usb. The 360 has always supported a keyboard and mouse setup via usb and EA didnt make it an option for LOTR or C&C3.
Also his comments about the controls for the ps3 being nearly identical lead me to believe that they would use the same control system with a little bit of sixaxis support(probably to the rotate camera) thrown in for good measure. But RTS games are best played on PCs anyway.

I wouldn't buy it for a console.

That's like buying a racing game for a PC. I did. Without a driving pad, it's almost pointless to play.

I would love to play some C&C on wii. Ever since I became a console gamer again I haven't been keeping up on the newer RTS games. The wiimote could help the transition from PC RTS to console RTS. The latest RTS I've played is Age of Mythology :P Yeah I'm pretty behind.

This would be the perfect time to release a USB keyboard for the Wii.

I have to say, it's more like GC .75. :)

By your logic no game system is next gen because the NES has games with better reviews than any ps3/wii/360 game out rirght now
