They better do an addon for C&C 3, otherwise it'll go down in history as the only boring C&C.


Are generals and zero hour still top down? I've seen a couple where they went 1st person, or did some other fancy gibberish with the camera, and it didn't seem right for C&C.


I'ts still a real time strategy, so it's still top down (though you cna change the camera angle to take a closer look at your units or to look behind things (a masive improvment over the old C&C game engine that).

I cant believe you've never played Generals. It is (or more accuratly the Zero hour addon is) IMO the best C&C game there has been. C&C 3 is just not as good.

I think you may be thinking of the First Person Shooter they did based on the Red Alert universe.

As for Wreckage, there's a couple in FP. But it's at the inflated price of £11.99. Hmm, I might go and look in Woolworths for 08 BB. You lot really need to stop encouraging me to get more tf's.

My comp has never had the spec required to run the newer ones. The original and Red Alert are the only one's I have. I love the commando's on the original.

We'll see about Wreckage and 08 BB. Wreckage isn't worth £11.99, is he now.

I would never pay above standard RRP for a deluxe figure.

I am sure you can find him at a TRU or WW somewhere for a tenner. Then that's £2 towards another tf, or lunch!

Lunch? I need not lunch.

I suppose it could go towards BB. Although my local Woolies probably won't have anything in, so it's a moo point anyway.

You need to set up a system. Find out when your locals restock.


I know my local TRU restocks at 3 pm on a Thursday.


I get there before 3pm, check stock out, and then nick things from the pallets.


Ensure that you get the goods, not some snot-nosed punk or scalping scum.

Only the most northern city on the west side of England. Newcastle is slightly further North but not by much (sorry couldn't resist, I'm a geography student).

Cheers. Interesting fact about Scottish people in York - if they are within the city walls, wearing full Scottish dress, then any citizen of York is legally allowed to shoot them with a crossbow, between the hours of sunrise and sunset.
