Kane LIVES!!!!

[Hassat Hunter]

 

You're female?

 

Some people tried to convince me that it WAS ingame (we are talking about the heli takeoff and attacking right?) but it has all signs of a cutscene with ingame foolishness (soldiers as large as tanks )

 

Gimme SupCom above this anytime

[Jumjalum]

Colour me unimpressed.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

And me uninterested in your unimpressedness. <_<

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

I'd have thought the direction and acting would be a little better in this day and age but it didn't seem so from that clip.

nope. the gameplay movie is on the website. (the tanks actually get a little bit of air after zipping over a hill.)

[Hassat Hunter]

Oh. ok. Thought you meant the movie on the main page; and didn't look too much further due to crappy website design. Now that I founc it though I am STILL unimpressed.

I mean; 2 tanks and 2 aircraft at the same time on screen only? What's the fun in that?

 

Gimme SupCom above this anytime

 

And I knew about Kane returning; IS it the same actor? (nobody confirmed NOR denied that)

Is that Joe Pantoliano?

[Deraldin]

It is a good thing

 

I much prefer Westwood's 2D C&C's above EA "enter whatever location here"'s 3D *C&C in name only*

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

Considering you only have Generals to look at when talking about EA's C&C, you'll find that there are many, many C&C fans that agree with you. Heck, some don't even consider Generals to be a part of the C&C franchise no matter what the title says.

 

And Metadigital, it's Joe Kucan.

 

Hassat: I recall reading that it was confirmed that Kucan is back as Kane, but I can't find where I read it. I'll keep looking for you though.

I linked to a new movie with Kucan in it earlier.

[Hassat Hunter]

Aye... found it... thnx... altough from the movie I cannot be 100% sure it IS the same actor...

[alanschu]

The one I saw it sure looked like him.

 

But his face is partially shadowed.

There was some speculation on the internet whether or not it was actually him or just a really good look alike.

I'm still sad Westwood died

 

although I liked Generals, when I finally had a machine that could handle it. Holy crap what a resource hog!

Generals was fine, although it just wasn't really C&C. It was missing that something.

FMV. And a plot that actually made you care/pick a side. I mean generals was great gameplay but it tossed out several C&C trademarks, the pallett that took up your right side of your screen that had all the building stuff and all your info (this got moved into the warcraft esque bottom of the screen). FMV sequences, the story was told by live actors in suits and they were trying to be campy as heck. Generals was told using the ingame engine and voice overs. (in zero hour they had some fmvs but they didn't have the level of interaction that the other C&C's had). psycho twisted science, Tesla coils and Oblisks and ion cannons. Nothing was sacred and nothing didn't work in C&C. then we go to Generals where the only real outragous thing was the particle cannon. and that actually acted like it should, were it plausable.

 

It should be pointed out that Joe was origionally one of the execs of Westwood (I think)

Ah yes. That would be it.

 

Although wasn't Red Alert 2 the only one that could really be classified as "campy"?

Red alert one counts, and the origional command and conquer was campy with out meaning to be.

There is a video with Joe Kucan as Kane in it. He DOES play it! :D

 

 

 

PS1: Meta, don't make fun out of my favorite hobby actor.

(my second favorite is 'Seth'. He dies so nice! )

 

PS2: I also don't consider Generals a real C&C. C&C is based on the Red Alert/Tiberian storyline. Generals is like having Warcraft3 but in the world of Faer

I won't be getting in the gloomwagon for this one. It looks nice enough from the trailers, but at this point it's probably still too early to say.

 

And what Generals lacked was personality. It was a much better RTS than the previous C&Cs, but it was bland and generic...

That scene was so cool at the time... finally, dealing with the big cheese!

 

You've inspired me to rip the movie. I've posted it to

I wasn't making fun, Cypher is one of the coolest characters in The Matrix because of Joe Pantoliano's fine acting.

Trust me, that there is good old Kucan, I remember that smug/evil grin from a million of Nod games!

 

This alone will make me buy the game, screw you haters! :D

Lucius just gets a boner from all bald megalomaniacs who command million-men sects and have a wicked grin.
