PSA: Sign up for Command & Conquer 4 beta now photo

Hot on the heels of the news of an incoming Command & Conquer 4 beta comes... the Command & Conquer 4 beta!

As expected, Electronic Arts has partnered with Gamespot for the program -- anyone who signs up for a free Gamespot account will gain access to the beta. The program launched today at noon Eastern, so you should be able to sign up and start downloading as you read this. 

Speaking of which, I think I'm going to go do that now...

don't bother to go into this beta, it's all about spammy wars and a D/C nightmare, also this pathetic try to a C&C game doesn't even deserve that name, i'll buy it just for the campaing, play it, and unistall it, then blame EA for destroying the entire franchise, cuak

It's so bad... So... bad. I thought being different from previous games was a good thing. It could've been. But this... it's truly horrific viewed as a game. And even more as a C&C game.

I can't stress this enough. DAMN. YOU. EA!!!

Screw all this Kane and nod and GDI crap. I want a new Generals damn it. With all the RTS games trying something different them going back to the regular formula would of been a breath of fresh air.

Here's a hint for you EA. Don't fuck with established franchises with complete changes of what they are. You make new games for that sort of crap. Now you've alienated the long time C&C players by changing what a C&C game is, and new players by putting all this in a game that is the end of very long story.

I tried to enter my code but the site was being down/messy. When I thought about trying it again, I apparently already closed all the tabs. Ah well!

Can't we get an Act of War 2 please?

Meh. I got mild enjoyment out of C&C3 and I've yet to play RA3.

I might play this when it is down to bargain bin prices but unlike most, I don't blame EA for the demise of C&C. Westwood took a big trip downhill with Tiberian Sun and then Renegade (which I still found OK). I thought RA2 and the Generals games were great but then they were both made after Westwood basically was EA.

I'm thinking of checking out the reviews and YouTube videos that are inevitably going to show up within a few days. It's easier and requires less time. And if the game is nearly as bad as people are saying it is, then I should solemnly say that an amazing game franchise has been butchered today.
