C&C 3 News

Some more C&C 3 News has come out:
  • Planet CNC is reporting that C&C 3 will ship on a multilanguage DVD. It seems rather speculative, but will be something to keep an eye on.
  • Predator confirmed that Zone Troopers will have helmets, a point of much contention for some people.
  • (Thanks PCNC) Some of the cast list for C&C 3 has been announced by 1UP; Tricia Helfer (Battlestar Galactica), Josh Holloway (LOST), Michael Ironside (Splinter Cell, Top Gun), Billy Dee Williams (Star Wars: Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back), Grace Park (Battlestar Galactica), Ivana Bozilovic (Wedding Crashers), Shauntay Hinton (Unfinished Business) are featured.
  • Mike Verdu has been interviewed by Gamespot about the cast. Here's a snip:
    GameSpot: Previously, lesser-known actors were used in Command & Conquer games. What went into the decision of blowing out the cast for Command & Conquer 3?
    Mike Verdu: We knew from the start that we needed a very talented cast to do justice to the story for Command & Conquer 3. I believe we've created a story for this game that has real depth and resonance, featuring interesting and complex characters that grow and change over time, a rich world, and some truly cool moments. We wanted actors who could bring our characters and our story to life...and we found them. In the final product, the live action will be intercut with high-end computer graphics (CG) sequences showing action on a grand scale: You'll see the destruction of the Philadelphia, a full-scale assault by Nod forces on a Blue Zone city, and a number of other scenes with an epic quality to them.
    Something to keep an eye on.
