The plot, it thickens - like an ultra-syrupy plot milkshake or a rail-thin wisp of a plot that's been secretly lifting plot weights for plot months. A few weeks ago, EA announced that it had canceled EA Victory's free-to-play Command & Conquer pseudo-reboot and closed down the studio altogether. This left the series' future very much in doubt, especially given that Victory had been established…

EA's free-to-play reimagining of Command & Conquer just keeps on growing. Next year, it'll slowly but surely roll out a full single-player campaign set in the Generals universe, replete with triumphant returns (or cackling callbacks) from the Global Liberation Army and revamped Chinese and US factions. But how exactly will these missions release? And what lies beyond, after what essentially constitutes Command & Conquer Generals…
Electronic Arts and Victory Games send word of one of those explanatory videos, where serious people talk about how games are made. Specifically how the forthcoming Command & Conquer gets made. It all seems pretty exciting, and no one appears glum says "well, we go into this big glass building every day, and eventually a game happens." In fact, this video makes the work of…
Command & Conquer's march into free-to-play territory has been fraught with confusion. Will it have single-player? Won't it? Is it even technically Command & Conquer Generals 2 anymore? I guess not, seeing as EA's taken to shaving off that grizzled, battle-tested moniker in favor of the simple, sprightly Command & Conquer. And that, it would seem, wasn't some careless "why not?" decision made on a…
Welcome back, commander. We know EA's deathless strategy titan C&C is due for yet another reboot, but we don't really know anything about what form it will take. Turns out EA - or at least their new strategy studio Victory Games - haven't entirely worked it out yet either. Hence, they've put out an open call for suggestions and requests from players. It's been a…
Monday this week we had a surprise. A new Command & Conquer game! This was surprising on two counts. Firstly, EA had rather publicly given up on the series last year. Secondly, there was no build up, no tiresome PR campaign. Just POW! News! So of course it was an accident. The site so keenly spotted by VE3D was hastily pulled, the story buried. But…
This happened all of sudden, and quietly. EA stealth-rebooted its Command & Conquer website, announcing in quick sucession a new community manager, a whole new studio and a brand new, mystery C&C game. We thought it was all over. (C'mon, we didn't think it was all over for even a second). It isn't now. Sounds like they're really going for it this time. Commandingly, they…
