  • Conglomerates ruin creative industry, developers are best left owned by nobody, a publisher should publish, nothing more. No intervention, no cutting deadlines, no management of the developer. The developer should make a game, and have it published, nothing more. And with the internet, and digital distribution, this might become possible without publishers even existing, a developer should be able to make a game, and sell it without being fucked over.

  • The lone trooper in the pic is Chuck Norris

  • i whould give all my money to get C&C back to westwood, i grew up on this game, i learned english from it,fighting tactics,and most importantly: teamwork

    FUCK EA

    Long live westwood and its games

  • Get "the first decade" and u get tiberian dawn to generals in one pack! works on xp and vista very well!

    And i played em all! even Renegade.

    The old ones are the best for sure.

  • @PriusRider I bought that, it´s awesome deal... and RA 1 brings so many memories...

  • Sounds alot like something from Max Payne.

  • I still play Tiberian Sun in 2012!!!! I'm gonna complete a campaign in hard mode now =)

  • @remyrickymartin me too. c&c since 1996, with some years of "collage" break but now back with "the first decade". not on win 95 but vista

  • Woah. Hey. I just noticed a "flaw" in this rip. At about 2:04, the intro is repeated in the BACKGROUND of the "real" track. This isn't supposed to happen.

    It only runs for 15 seconds though, granted...

  • Best music to listen to when the mission is lasting several hours and you are at a stalemate with the enemy.

    There's a lone trooper in all of us. Life doesn't give a shit about us, and its better to accept the hard truth we are on our own in this universe.

  • im not doin shit today...lets play some tiberian!!!!

  • Westwood, epic forever ))))), Fuck you EA

    Long live Frank Klepacki, a genious ))))

  • Do you remember mission in Firestorm with Stalker(GDI), when he have to free mutants,it really fits there, I just lost all the soliders and used him...

  • I never realized this theme was so epic, I always skiped it when i was a child.

  • This one would fit as a theme of my life 

  • this is probably my favorite song from any cnc game

  • I need this for my iPod... so heroic... anyone know where to get it?

    This theme is the theme of the Global Defense Initiative. It is solemn, as their duties are, but heroic, and speaks of hope of a brighter future yet to come. Tiberium WILL be stopped, and if they have to pave the crystaline fields with the blood Kane's zealots to do so, they will do so. Nothing will stop them from fighting for victory, for the eventualy freedom of the world... or they'll die trying.

  • @GeneralSpy The entire OST for this game is on iTunes, I'm pretty sure

  • god i loved this song i would listen to it over and over in game

    

  • hey thats chuck hehe

  • One of the best songs. Mutant is good!

  • Last 25 seconds are orgasmic

  • Ahhh theme of my life :p

  • This track is a Magic! What it really, really stands for is : NEVER, EVER EVER GIVE UP!!!!!!!!!!!!! NO MATTER WHAT, NO MATTER THE ODDS, NO MATTER THE COST, NO MATTER ANYTHING : FIGHT LIKE A FREE MAN, FIGHT FOR ALL THAT YOU LOVE AND STAND FOR, BE YOUR OWN HEART ON THE FIELD, BE YOUR OWN LOVE AND YOUR OWN DREAMS IN FLESH AND BLOOD ON THE FIELD -

    AND NEVER, EVER EVER EVER

    GIVE UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Playing this song in the final mission always gave me goosebumps!

  • I wonder if discus shaped grenades would work well?

  • Эту музыку частенько гоняют в программе человек и закон, эх давно уже так не впечатляла музыка из игр

  • @pirat1988rus А ведь действительно... проверил - так и есть... а НТВ ,кстати, обожает Hell march в программы про оружие вставлять.

  • Some of you might disagree with me but with the music for this game I think Mendelson did the better job.

  • @birdsofafeather1990

    I agree and I always wondered why EA didn't ask Mendelson to do the Tiberium Wars soundtrack when Frank was unavailable.

  • finaly EA choosed a good track for a game when you open mass efect 2 launcher they some things in common

  • @Harrallak Well the Generals was good i think. But anything after that sucked ass.

  • Best RTS i've and i've playeed a lot. This track is one of the best, but has nothing on pharotek. PEACE THROUGH POWER!

  • Comment removed

  • FUCK DUBSTEP xD

  • Commandos don't need backup.

  • Listening to this in bed with headphones. Some pretty damn immersive music.

  • Probably my first introduction into the RTS genre. This game was simply epic, still my favorite game soundtrack to date.

  • Back when creative could be put in gaming none of this realistic sh!t Video Game are meant to let you do what you cant do in real life

  • i got addicted to this song since i found it on youtube 4 days ago. got to listen to it everyday... this game was just awesome. reminds me of better days and stuff..... ;)

  • this tune alone is enough to tell you OLD C&C was THE shit , EA make shit games everyone knows that now XD

  • @TheStealth86 damn right you are! :D

  • i played Red Alert and Tiberian Sun in elementary back in days.

    Recently checked the C&C franchises, realized this series ended up as i did not expect. Just hoping that first decade of C&C series will remain as historical PC game.

    Sincerely from Japan 

  • @sanpei220000 :( i am the same as a kid i wondered how most people havent heard of red alert i realized they all play sc and sc2 :/

  • @sanpei220000 At one point i thought C&C was bigger than starcraft x)

  • @sanpei220000 you could say that to Petroglyph on facebook or twitter because petroglyph has memebers of westwood who created this game

  • @sanpei220000 Back in elementary school, me and my best friend were the only 2 people in the school who played C&C. We felt so cool being able to make jokes and references to C&C games without other students knowing what the hell we were talking about.

    I still make jokes and references with friends and I just graduated in June. Westwood's legacy lives on.

    And Frank Klepacki's music is what got me into electronic music.

    Cheers, Westwood and Frank! Peace through power! :D

  • @sanpei220000 Wow! your english is terrific! and you played C&C? I didn't think anyone from Japan would like an American game

  • @filipinowhiteboy I think he knew it from ra3

  • @abcd5799 hmmmm? what do you mean?

  • @filipinowhiteboy well, maybe he was just looking for a game with his country in it and he found it in red alert 3

  • @abcd5799 maybe but he sai he played Tiberian Sun during his elementary school days and Tiberian Sun Pre-dates RA3

  • This was back before EA took over full control and completely ruined the series. DAMN YOU EA!!!!!!!!

  • @Hellmarch5000 I think they did a good job with Tiberium Wars, so it's not totally bad, but it would have been cool too see what Westwood would have made.

  • Their helmets when I look back totally remind me of Battlestar Gallactica. And I never really figured out why the hell the genadier transformed into a discus thrower...

  • @jakethemistake19 because disks can bounce, and thus have a greater range

  • I AM GDI TROOPER!

  • 2:39 best part of the whole song

  • I still get chills when I listen this soundtrack...

  • 1:00 is legendary...

  • Tiberian sun easily one of the best RTS in terms gameplay,story,atmosphere and 2 balanced faction (sure you cna argue this and that are imba IMO the only unit that was way to good for cost was the orca bomber it made orca fighter almost 100% useless -_-) but anyways the weird thing is that if EA didnt rush the game it could have been much MUCH more...

  • They dude's suit on the video says "Chuck" on the left breast plate. That's my dad's name :D

  • @SlyNicolai Granted, the edit function can be abused. However, if you read everything from historians, such as basic SOCIAL STUDIES AND HISTORY TEXT BOOKS, you will find that everything I said is true. Wikipedia is correct much of the time. Its just when there are errors made by careless or malicious people that the discrepancy occurs.

  • @SlyNicolai pfft.

    Are you saying read sources other than mainstream? Like what? This is history as historians describe it man.

  • @SlyNicolai What the fuck?

    One: What show are you talking about? Coast To Coast AM or something?

    Two: What point are you trying to prove? that the medieval people had some sort of special knowledge to go to the Americas?

    Three: Read Wikipedia, it could do you some good.

  • @SlyNicolai they knew it for a long while. Dont be fooled by repeated fallacies where it was "columbus proving it was round". The world was known to be round much longer than before columbus. It's been known to be for about 2000 years. Much longer than laypeople think.

  • @SlyNicolai Dude, are you for real? They WERE trying to get to the orient. I just said why they went the other way. They thought that going that route would be quicker and less hazardous. AS for "in charge of the luxury", I dont know what you mean.

  • @SlyNicolai No man, no thinking. Knowing. This is documented fucking history.

    All European nations were trying to race to find a quick way to the orient so they could get the riches there.

    then they stumbled upon the natives in the americas.

  • @SlyNicolai No man. Seriously. Thats what. Several voyages. You know why they call native americans "indians"? because they actually thought they were in India. They tried making several maps when they hit land a ton of times.

    it was about a hundred or so years later that they figured out 'oh shit there is a whole fucking continent blocking us from China"

    They didn't know a whole lot during Medieval times. We have the documents to prove it.

  • @SlyNicolai nothing gave them that idea. They stumbled upon it. They were trying to get to the Orient to gain access to the riches, delicassies, and luxuries that could be found there. They attempted to cross the "world ocean" because there were too many hazards and tolls over the land route.

  • @SlyNicolai We do know. The concept that Atlantis was a real city was never taken seriously until the modern day. The greeks of the day took them as the thought experiments they were. Plato said outright that it wasnt real.

  • @SlyNicolai He made it up as part of a thought experiment. You are one weird kid.

  • @SlyNicolai Atlantis isn't real, period. It never existed. It was a figment of Plato's imagination. The only reason people speak of Atlantis is because of Plato's philosophical work "Timaeus". The concept of the ill-fated city was used in a philosophical thought experiment by Plato. He even comes out and says it's not real.

  • @SlyNicolai Atlantis never existed.

  • The name of the soldier on the picture is Chuck? D:

  • i say this: If i was at EA i wouldnt creat shits like C & C 4 or Twilight, best thing was to improve Tiberian Sun, Graphics like C&C4 and improved units, to look better etc... RIP Westood.

  • The only C&C game EA got right was Generals and its expansion. Everything else they did WRONG!

  • @SlyNicolai who ever said it wasnt possible

  • Tiberian Sun is a milestone in realtime-Strategy Games. The concept of the game and the huge variety of different units was and is unique.

  • For those who can't stand what EA did to the C&C series, pick up your brain and start working on a mod or standalone game that servers your ideals. Best to something about it, than just sitting there hating.

  • Lone trooper song. Old memories are coming. I am 26 and I remember these songs like it was back 10 or 11 years. God damn I missed those days... Westwood where are you now? :( EA ruins everything. their management system is to make 100 of games, but it has no quality. Games like this will never be the same!

  • if EA did not took over then westwood will make crawlers you know, a guy from EA explain they make the crawler is from Westwood's blueprints.... WHICH IS TRUE AND THEY GONNA PUT UNIT CAPS. like Star wars empire at war, which built by petrograph which is westwood and please, if you wanna say you hate EA, then why not put a riot then break down the studio. or we can do mods, and when the president of EA dies, then thats our chance.

  • This was the best C&C game. Ever. It just kind of got ruined once EA took over. :/ At least they recognize it as a classic though and have it for free now because I lost my Battle Theatre(I think that's what the set was called) and my First Decade disks. You just can't beat a Westwood C&C game. Especially Tiberian Sun and Firestorm.

  • Omg o_o

    Does his name tag say chuck?!

    Chuck norris lives in the future as well xD

  • Comment removed

  • @ShadowGKCP

    Actually it DOES say Chuck

  • Correct, good music is what makes a game immortal. Tiberian sun was/is one hell of a game, it really had a special athmosphere.

  • @Rodriquez124

    IE world of warcraft, lets be real

  • @ollfriezallo

    Sorry but you cant troll in CnC, its not fantasy.

  • @Vesperr11 Cheesy win?

  • @Rodriquez124 i too LOVED the atmosphere it had. i wished tiberium wars had a good atmosphere as it did

  • @Rodriquez124 It's the only RTS I can play, all the others are garbage.

  • Frank Klepacki really nailed the soundtrack for Tiberian Sun. In my opinion it really catches the futuristic, somewhat dystopian feel of the game. On that note he blew my mind with Tiberian Dawn and impressed me with Red Alert as well. His later works have been less impressive, but on the other hand what has he had to work with? RA3? Bleh.

  • @troll21 Troll you may be, but truth is what you speak.

  • @troll21 Red Alert 3 wasn't as good, but personally I thought the new rock and roll approach (as opposed to industrial and techno) was pretty sweet.

    Hell March and Trenches will always be best though.

  • @troll21 This one's Jarred Mendelson, not Frank. If it was frank, there'd be drums...

  • @troll21 he only did 2-3 themes for RA3, his Universe at War soundtrack is still true to his style. Majority of RA3 and Tiberium Wars tracks are fairly short and unmemorable. It sucks when you don't have trademark ingame playlist and songs get interrupted because they are tied to game events. Just when a track gets to its good part, wham! You eat superweapon or get attacked and some other short track kicks in.

  • @Desolator84 His music in UAW was good as well, i especially liked the part of the intro where the Novus show up.

  • The music for this game was nothing short of perfect. It really set the tone for a great game.

  • The graphics get old but the music NEVER does. Outstanding

  • @hannibalb3 you, sir speak the truth

  • yeah.. ^^

    besides, these discs are like tiny alien sorcers.. they can navigate throught the air using hundreds of tiny flap flaps! awesome! x)

  • THIS, the music, the ambience of the game. this is why Tiberian Sun is such a great game =O

  • When I hear the last portion of this song, I imagine a fighter jet flying off into the sunset!!!!

  • I remember when I used to want to be a GDI troop for halloween....

    But when I showed them the vids n stuff they... um... dang I can't remember...

  • @AccountProto5X to be honest, I wanted to dress up as one of the Nod troopers for Halloween. Their uniforms were the definition of slick.

  • @OldSkoolgamerz and that sentence was the definition of correct! CyberHiFive?

  • The second half of this track is just amazing. R.I.P Westwood

  • *sniff sniff* R.I.P westwood, we will miss Tiberian sun fill with constant reminders about how you need more silos, that your harvester is under attack, that there is a missile launch detected, that your ion cannon is ready, etc.

  • :(

    awesome game, awesome soundtrack..

    and the legacy isn't carried on due to EA...

    *tear

  • @MCAMVP maybe in another universe westwood is still up and the chronoshpere exist.  but yeah i agree :(

  • damn, tiberian sun is the greatest strategy game.Its visuals and music like in no other strategy game...

    thumbs up for their wallpapers. :)

  • infact, this one is from jarrid mendelson, not klepacki, its a common misconception

  • @TheDerHeinrich It's made by both, Mendelson assisted to get the gloomy atmosphere to the music.

  • Did you get the hidden message in this outwordly melody? NEVER, EVER GIVE UP, no matter the odds, no matter nothing! Even a lone trooper is much bigger than he seems to be... HOPE dies last! Magical music! All of TS!

  • Does this music remind anyone else, at least a little bit, of the music from Deus Ex?

    Were these tracks composed by Frank Klepacki?

  • @Sleepy1988 Indeed. Frank Klepacki composed the music for C&C Tiberian Dawn, and Tiberian Sun, as well as the expansion packs (Covert Operations and Firestorm). He also did the music for the C&C games Red Alert and Red Alert 2. Personally, I think some of his best work is split between Tiberian Dawn and Tiberian Sun, but that's just my opinion.

  • Does this music remind anyone else, at least a little bit, of the music from Deus Ex?

  • our beautiful 90s

  • This track change my life. The music is so complex yet so simple but transmits every emotion of the game. I was like mad looking this track all over you tube.

  • yes this is the one ! i freaking with this one :) old good times ! cold winter nights ! ;) spend with the game :)

  • this is by far a soundtrack that i remember when i was kid at age 8 playing this brings back so many child hood memmories and ea just took it and flushed it down the toilet like shit... im not saying i dont like new things but i just wish ea didnt buy all of westwood. ea killed the cnc theme and mood of the game. they took away most of the cool units such as banshees, orca bombers, firestorm generater, etc. all of the soundtracks are good.

    R.I.P westwood.

  • @tsmasta Know exactly what you mean.

  • By far the best Tiberian Sun track. Love it!

  • Tiberium Dawn

    Had this kind of awesome Vietnam alternate reality take for me. Why Vietnam? I dunno.

    Tiberian Sun

    Futuristic Technology awesome gameplay just always fun, mutants had a story and the Firestorm Add on just made the game 100 times better. (My Fave)

    Tiberium Wars

    They dumped all the awesome units . . . and tech levels couldn't be set in multiplayer, I just don't like nukes or anything that's basically a no skill win button.

    Tiberium Twighlight

    No bases and limited units. . . wtf

  • @ANGRYMAPLE: Totally agree with you! The Wars and Twilight were just created using The Good Ol' Frigging Familiar "Copy 'n Paste from other games" system. For example, I'd guess that the EA scavenged that "No base" thing from Warhammer. So the guys at EA thought, "Hey, let's steal some ideas and make all of the world love us for creating shitty, err, good game! Let's make the Warhammer -players love us and let's say Fuck you to the original C&C players."

    The result? A game which everyone hates!

  • @TheTwilightUnicorn As a lover of both CnC and Dawn of War, I can attest to this. The newer CnC games were fucking terrible, an affront to what Command and Conquer used to be. I miss the days where I could lay a beatdown to great songs like this, though technically those days haven't ended since I still have the game. But you get what I mean. The gameplay was a bastardized and flawed mashup and, well, flat out sucked.

  • @ANGRYMAPLE

    C&C4 is not a command and conquer at all... :(

  • There are others better in their own fields, but when is about C&C nostalgia this song has the upper hand.

    I still remember those years, so far ago, so many things have changed and yet some feelings are the same, we are still the lone trooper, still figthing through life in our own secret wars...

  • @kanenash you sir are a poet.I completely agree with you.

  • oh i remember the times i used to play this. my dad would always wake up to find me on this game. he'd say "son what are you doing up this late? and how did you know how to turn on the game?" since i was only 4. I would respond "dad the tanks are killing me!!"

  • You know, thinking about it more, it captures the situation in Tib Sun/Firestorm perfectly; world's going to hell, but there's still hope; they just have to fight for it. Almost makes me wish Frank Klepacki accepted EA's offer to do Tib Wars' music; but that'd be kinda cruel to ask him to overwork himself (That's correct, he declined EA's offer to do Tib Wars music because he was currently busy at the time.)

    Heck, the uniforms in Tib Sun were pretty awsome, kinda wish they were reused later. :/

  • 2:20- Aaaaaaaahh yeaa... x)

    I love this game

  • 0:58 - 1:08

    my childhood.

  • *incoming unknown transmission* "My name is Disk Thrower, i'm a GDI remenent living in the wastland, I am broadcasting on all GDI frequencies I will be at the abandoned seaport every day when the sun is highest in the sky If you are out there, if anyone is out there I can provide food, hospitality, and security if there is anybody out there anybody... please you are not alone, This message is untracable to any NOD radio frequencies, see you soon. *message repeats*

  • VatcanIscariot's right, Hell March was the best track Westwood dreamed up. I think their songs are absolute genius, but the only dissapointment was the red alert themes, EXCEPT Big Foot, that song rocks for it's time, forget Hell March 1

  • I admit, C&C3 was actually pretty good, sure there were some flaws like the fucking overpowered scrin, but i enjoyed it, THEN ra3 came out and i thought it was gonna be pretty good, next day, my computer blows up in shittiness, C&C4 i committed suicide to prevent me to witness such a fuckup.

  • @A20Razorback I agree 100%. I grew up on Red Alert and then they screw it up so much. >.> So mad. Not even funny.

  • im very impressed by most of the tracks in the game. could be better than red alert XD... *not hell march of course*

  • @VaticanIscariot oh right i love it @ 2:36

  • stupid name and kind of soldier: DISK THROWER!!

    why they hadn`t called him GRENADIER or something like that???!!

    would be more serious and realistic than a funny disk thrower ... uuuuhhhh

  • @300pidary Think of throwing a disk like a frisbee, it can go further when thrown compared to a grenade. Plus if you watched the video clip with the disk thrower in action, it shows him destroying a SAM Site with it.

  • @Yrrej8611 you must be kidding ...

  • @300pidary The only reason why in 2030 GDI used disks instead of grenades was that The efficient disc shaped grenades are at the same time more powerful and longer ranged than normal hand grenades. The aerodynamic shape increases range and allows them to skip along the ground. However this also makes it difficult for a Disc Thrower to hit his target sometimes.

  • Starting with the jump back from the dark and futuristic world of TS in CnC3, there is probably nothing in the C&C universe (Red Alert included) that EA hasn't fucked up.

    IMO the best games in this series were RA and TS.

  • Tiberium twilight it's not a c&c game, is EA Shit. No base building + no tiberium harvesting= It's not c&c game

  • Comment removed

  • one vision ! one purpose ! death to EA !

  • @RusBEAR1988 HEIL RUSBEAR! (I am in agreeance with you)

  • @RusBEAR1988 The Brotherhood shall deal with EA soon enough! >=)

    Peace Through Power!

  • Frank Klepacki surly knows how to compose interesting music....Song title always correspond to the music, I feel like a lone trooper for sure....All the others are killed, just one left

  • @jolesco this one is by jarrid mendelson.

  • Let's all close our eyes and pretend the abomination that is C&C4 did not exist.

  • @OldSkoolgamerz There never was a C&C4. The C&C franchise ended when EA took over.

  • @ArianaUO321 Or C&C3 for that matter. The story ended when Renegade came out.

  • If there is a C&C game made by EA

    Its no longer a C&C game

  • good old times, tiberian sun...

  • i agree this game is rad :D esp the tracks

  • Its hard to believe that this game came out in stores 11 years ago...

  • @stopthrm And that it's still miles better than the new ones.

  • and cnc 4 is a fucking shame to us :(

  • there isnt cnc 4 btw...lol

  • @TraceurMikado Tiberium Twilight, a horrible game to end the series, NO base building, NO tiberium harvesting basically. In lamest terms, it's not command and conquer.
