¿Cómo? ¿Qué? Pero si esto no es una novedad. Si, lo sabemos, pero la nota de prensa
de Electronic Arts ha sido publicada hoy en www.gamepress.co.uk y a continuación la
reproducimos. Lo que si es una novedad es que al final de su nota de prensa viene la dirección
de la página Web del juego, aunque por el
momento es algo “sosa”.
EA ANNOUNCES COMMAND & CONQUER GENERALS

17-million selling franchise brings modern war to life
LAS VEGAS, NV (Mar. 19, 2002)
– The war you might see on TV in 20 years is about to be interactive. EA announced Command &
Conquer™ Generals today, a 3D real-time strategy game for the PC that will deliver the intensity
and chaos of modern war. Generals will be published by EA (NASDAQ:ERTS) under the EA GAMES™
brand this winter.
Generals is the next game in the 17-million-selling Command &
Conquer franchise. It’s being created by EA Pacific, the developers of the wildly popular
Command & Conquer Red Alert™ 2 and Command & Conquer Yuri’s Revenge™.
"Generals
will give gamers a Hollywood version of modern war with intense combat and spectacular special
effects," said Mark Skaggs, general manager of EA Pacific and executive in charge of production
for Generals. "We're creating a game of global conflict based on issues relevant to today's
turbulent world. Gamers will be in command of this modern war, and they'll win that war by
using weapons they see on today's battlefield, plus new weapons and vehicles fresh off the
military's drawing boards."
The armies that will clash in Generals are the super powers
of United States and China, and a massive underground organization, the Global Liberation Army,
bent on drowning the world in anarchy and terror. Each of the three sides represents a distinct
geo-political viewpoint and will fight the war with vastly different tactics and
weaponry.
To make the experience of modern war as immersive as possible, EA Pacific is
using a proprietary state-of-the-art 3D engine, code-named “Sage,” which delivers unprecedented
detail and interactivity. Because of Sage, Generals’ battlefields will include fully modeled
urban cityscapes, rugged deserts, vast forests and frozen wastelands. Amazing special effects
will allow players to crush cars with hulking tanks, blow out the windows of skyscrapers, or
lace the skies with smoke from dueling fighter planes.
Generals will include a full
single-player campaign along with a full multiplayer component played over a LAN or the
Internet. Generals will also feature:
More than 80 all-new units, buildings and
upgrades such as the top-secret Aurora Strike Fighters, devastating Daisy Cutters, militant
Angry Mobs, and skilled Hackers.
Innovative gameplay with new features such as
thrilling air-to-air combat, customizable forces, enhanced veterancy, and intense urban combat.
An improved interface that will give gamers more control over the battlefield than
ever before.
A full map editor for players to build customized war scenarios.
Spectacular cinematics that will immerse players in the storyline.
