Rumor: C&C FPS "Tiberium" headed to 360

Game Informer is a pretty good magazine. I have been a gaming magazine subscriber to dozens of different mags over the decades and their info is solid. Like all gaming "authorities" their reviews mean nothing, but other than that there isn't a bunch of subliminal (and laughable) marketing like you'll find at places like GameSpot and IGN.

Well, granted, my review of GI is a bit old, I haven't read it since I actually worked at gamestop. Maybe it's gotten a lot better since my last read. I understand that they're trying to eke out another C&C fps, but unless it's got some killer multi-player it's most likely going to tank. (mammoth tank?) Dunno, guess only time will tell. Good points though Josh.

Unforunatley, this doesn't sound very much like Renegade, being that it's a "tactical, squad based FPS". Me (and I'm sure many others) who actually played Renegade's multiplayer absolutley loved it. The game had a really interesting, really original home base mechanic that literally worked how it does in an RTS. The barracks and war factory allowed you to buy a better infantry unit or tank, with the money supplied to you by the tiberium collector. You also had base defense that prevented most infantry incursions and a power plant that was very important to protect, as all other buildings were crippled if it was destroyed. This lead to many interesting and original tactics that I have yet to see in another game. Fients to draw attention to the front of the base, while a small team of demoltion engineers destroyed the power plant. Rushes of flame tanks to destroy the main defense. Blockades to disrupt the flow of resources.

I really hope they atleast keep the multiplayer like renegade, it was my favorite multiplayer game ever.

Wow, that is exactly what my friend does with his GI.
