If you can’t get enough of teaser trailers that show nothing but CG animation, then the first video from Command and Conquer’s first foray into the FPS world will be right up your ally. With today’s graphical horsepower, let’s hope what we see here isn’t too far from what the game will really look like.
Jerry O’Flaherty, art director of Gears of War, Unreal Tournament 3 and Command & Conquer has landed his first gig as director of a feature film, with Warner Bros. upcoming CG-animated Thundercats movie.
O’Flaherty is currently working on the script with Paul Sopocy, and plans to remain faithful to the franchise that children of the 80’s will remember so well. Speaking of the jump from games to movies, O’Flaherty told Variety:
It feels like a natural thing for me to step into, […] Games have come so far now. The last four years of my life have been about bringing the energy of filmmaking into the videogame experience.
August 31, 2007 marked the twelfth anniversary of the release of Westwood Studios’ prolific real-time strategy game, Command & Conquer. To celebrate, EA have released Command & Conquer Gold for free - the same Windows XP compatible version of the game that was released as part of the Command & Conquer: The First Decade collectors pack.
