    I hope it gets canned :/

    C&C works best as an RTS.

    Then I suppose it'd not be EA if they didn't bend a good franchise over a table :/

    I think there is scope to make a really good FPS based on the C&C, it just needs a really good involving side story (or tie in the main theme GDI vs NOD Win or Die etc) like COD:4 and the squad type play like GRAW offered.

    I wait with much anticipation, and prepared for disappointment!

    I liked Renegade a lot. The only problem with it was that everyone was unorganized. If they combine Battlefield style squads with Renegade gameplay then they'll make a great game.

    This just in! EA spams the market with another crap, unoriginal and uninspired C&C game. News at eleven.

    I'm still waiting for Red Alert 3, still got the email from EA, stating thats what game they are working on, then C&C3 was released.

    I hope so, Renegade was brilliant. I dont get why people didnt like it. I never did play online because for some reason every time I tried to play online it says insert game disk although I had the original game disk in my drive. Only played on a lan then on.

    It was a great Idea and I thought it worked well. Lots of tanks and weapons etc. Much better game than the likes of Battlefront.

    I really enjoyed Renegade, and I actually still play it from time to time. The multiplayer was (and still is) very unique compared to most FPSs. I'm hoping that Tiberium revives C&C Mode from the original Renegade in its multiplayer.

    All the reviews I saw on Renegrade said it was terrible, I never even tried a free demo I had from a mag cover disc. I can only think of one example of an RTS that was also a capable FPS and that's Battlezone, I thought that was pretty good.

    I've still got the game somehwere in my junk pile, along with the sequel, I think I'll dig it out again and see if I can get it running with XP.

    renegade is an awesome game, very unique at the time (the graphics did suck, the units did look like toys), it has a very nice modding community, and the gameplay is now being ported to the crysis engine and the ut3 engine.....

    single player had its ups and lows... but i think if EA did not eviscerate westwood then renegade would be much superior than it was.
