of all the people to play the role of the commander it had to be Michael Biehn. there was so much hype about this game when it was released. damn it was so long ago when i played this. 10 years exactly. this is the first time i have watched it again since then. hanging out with mates after school to complete the mission just to get a glimpse of another storyline. and now we can get it instantly on youtube. how much things have changed. how impressed were we about the graphics lol...
I was 7 when my family got their first computer in China back in 1999. The guy who came to install the modem gave me this game to play, and i thought this game was like the most exciting thing ever created.
I didn't even speak a word of english back then. HAHAHA . Ahh the good old days.
I read on Wikipedia, that General Solomon in this game, might actually have been the player character in Command & Conquer Tiberian Dawn. I'm not sure if it's true, but it would be funny if it was because you'd be looking at the character you were playing in C&CTD
I find it kind of distracting that they used well known actors for the FMVs in this game. When I first played Tiberian Sun in '99, I couldn't focus on the story because I was too busy thinking about Star Wars and Aliens after seeing James Earl Jones and Michael Beihn.
Watching this scene reminds me once again how badass this game is. I'm trying to find out if it'll run on vista (Original Disks, not TFD). Some people say yes, others say no.
GDI Jumptroopers > ODSTs (by a MILE).
A lot of ideas for the Halo series came from this game. And all of those 12 yr olds think it's original.
I like the Halo storyline, but multiplayer got really repetitve and boring when Halo 3 rolled around.
Anyways, when I mentioned the 12 yr old thing, I was talking about the stereotypical Halo 3 player, who think that Halo is the greatest thing since sliced bread. Those guys drive me nuts.
In a display of remarkable prescience, I remember actually feeling a shiver of pure fear go along my spine when James Earl Jones uttered that terrible line: "Get me McNeil." When McNeil's first line was "Chandra! You son of a bitch!" I knew that something had gone badly wrong...
General James Solomon Is a superb - commander. McNeil Is a field commander. A superb - commander doesn't fight, but gives orders. And Is higher In militairy ranks.
It's hella cooler than ours though. Heck everyone would have a more interesting life. We'd rather have this reality, but that's because we haven't seen the upside to the Tiberian one.
I like RTS games better when the commander is an actual character that interacts with others, instead just a "supposed to be you" guy that you never see.
Actually, there are many of them. McNeil's command center during the Third Tiberium war was another Orca command ship called the Huron. You may want to check out Command and Conquer wiki if you haven't.
