Opposable Thumbs snagged the Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars demo last night, quickly played through it and posted their impressions this morning.

Frank Caron seemed suitable impressed with the game. Top of the list was the "gorgeous presentation", "gorgeous interface" and solid gameplay and balance.

The gameplay itself is as solid as ever, and it appears that there have been many different tweaks for the sake of balance. As is the tradition with RTS games, a more extensive play time is likely to reveal small little details that stand out as either fantastic or flawed. The interface has been tweaked and the presentation as a whole is impressive. Heck, even the FMVs that I was skeptical about add a certain personality to the game. At one point, I even found myself giggling and yelling out (as one of our readers put it) "Break on through, Micheal Ironside!" Overall, I really enjoyed my time spent with C&C3 and I'm looking forward to picking it up come March 28.

It sounds like this is going to be a Supreme Commander versus Command & Conquer 3 sorta season. Which do you think will win and do either top Company of Heroes? Brian Crecente
