Happy New Year!

I just wanted to take a moment to wish all the loyal C&C Fans out there a happy new year. If this last year was the best year of your life so far, I hope you're next can top it. If you're last year has been one of hardship (we're C&C fans and tend to know this well), then I hope the coming year will be full of pleasant surprises and fun to make for a much better year.

Of course, Generals World will be around and we'll keep bringing you what you need for C&C plus a few added bonuses. Quite honestly, this next year is going to be an interesting one for Command and Conquer. It may not be revolutionary in game design but the franchise is still alive (to many people's surprise after EA bought Westwood) but 2006 may be remembered as the year of C&C past. This year will be a good time to look back at the games that the franchise was built on and the mods that made it a community.

Command and Conquer may have a bit of a different direction than when it started but Semisonic put it best in the song Closing Time: "Every new beginning is from some other beginning's end".
