Command & Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars 360 In Stores

cc3TWpcSCRNjoshHolloway.jpg

Full-motion video, the return of Kane, and flawless real-time strategy action are the highlights of of the comeback of one of strategy's most beloved franchises. Released for the PC in late March, the Xbox 360 version of EA Los Angeles' Command & Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars debuted in North America and Europe this week. The freshest C&C entry in a good long while, Tiberium Wars uses a console-specific intuitive control scheme to pull you into a deep single player campaign as well as robust multiplayer with Xbox Live Vision Camera support (so you can look the bastards in the eye when you crush their hopes, natch).

Besides: how many games feature live action video with actors from such hit shows as Lost, Battlestar Galactica and House, or films like The Empire Strikes Back, Return of the Jedi, Top Gun, and Starship Troopers? I love my Billy Dee, but I'll take Tricia Helfer any day. Well, not take her, but you know. Lunch and light gossip.

Or we could just all share Josh Holloway.

Read the press release if you so please.

My boyfriend was playing the demo the other day and I nearly freaked out when the girl from House popped up... then the girl from BSG then Billy Dee... I mean its like a nerd's wet dream or something. AND I DIDN'T EVEN SEE SAWYER!

OMG I'm tempted to buy it for the actors alone, screw the game.

And girls who like girls who like rumble packs!
