Dune 2000: Atreides - Victory - Long Live the Duke!

Full-Motion cutscene from Westwood Studio's Dune 2000.

With the Harkonnen in full retreat back to Geidi Prime, and the Sardaukar in full retreat, today would forever mark the history of the Imperium. The corrupt House Corrino fell among their filthy allies into shame and exile. The Emperor of the Imperium was crushed under the weight of his own Palace. Orinthopter's filled the skies while Fremen war-cries rang out among the shattered bases. Today the Atreides Emperor would take his place as the man who brought justice and nobility back to the Imperium, while his Commander would go down as the single greatest warrior who ever lived.

I still think Dune 2000 might actually be a better game than Emperor. It's a more challenging game!

[smithdanger]

I know! I still haven't beaten it!

I love the design of the Emperor's palace, I wish I lived in a giant golden pyramid with a sky deck on top...

:)

Ornithopters > Emporer. Not the biggest suprise.

@Titusatreides I didn't like the stillsuits, they didn't fit the description in the book, not keen on the look of the Bene Gesserit either. But there was good casting i'll admit that.

@ShadowTwain dude if there was an fps of this, with as many men an average user gets killed and the likelihood of one random seige tank, id say its halo with human guts and blood and no flood. AND sand so much sand

@icesyncer If they wanted to portray the Fremen storming the Emperor's palace, they might recycle the scene from the Dune movie.

@smithdanger I did beat it on all 3 eventually. The first time I won on atreidies it took 12 hours of play time I have to keep saving and coming back to. There are few strategy games with this much depth and challenge even today :D You really are making me want to go back this weekend and do a marathon lol!

[icesyncer]

aww man, I was hoping to see the fremen attacking the palace, with airstrikes in the background :(

[Fireblasto]

@smithdanger Haha! I still haven't done the harkononnen campaign. I never used the atomics
