This is a petition that I found on the Petroglyph Forums in this topic why not sight on it. Here is a short discription taken from the petition page:

Quote:

Petition:
Sign if you want Westwood Studios back and want them to make richfull games again or give the opportunity to Petroglyph Games to develop the C&C and Dune series. (We are going to have to act if we want to live in a different world).


Why not sighn on it.


Seriously people how can you fight a war on terrorism with all of your borders wide open!

Petroglyph has stated a few times that it'd be insanely unlikely that they'd ever be given the license to develop C&C/Dune again.

Also nice fail to whoever made the petition- richfull?


yeah

I think there are more petitions for the same exact thing than there are signatures.

Westwood is gone, get over it.

EA is the ONLY company that I will personally accept for handling the C&C series. They know the most about it and how it's current fans are. Not to mention have the experience of 3 entire games (Which, by the way, have gotten exponentially better than the last. RA3 10x > C&C3 20x > Generals)

And of all companies, Petro would be the WORST one to give rights of the C&C universe to.

Bullshit. C&C3 was shameful. The directing was just way over the top. I don't mind for RA3, that's kind of what RA2 was, and RA3 wasn't meant to be super serious and tie in with the series. But, C&C3 should have been a little bit better. If I recall, Joe Kucan directed the previous C&C games. C&C3, however, he didn't.

I could go in depth as to why C&C3 just isn't very C&C at all, but that should be incredibly obvious when you play it.

Lies. Petroglyph is known for making good RTS's. It's mostly because they're not a super duper huge company that they haven't been top notch quality. However, if EA allowed Petroglyph to develop, and EA simply produced, then it would be amazing.

Completely agree with you...very valid points. C&C 3 was not good and RA3 is basically C&C 3 but with different units/different universe.

Not to mention the shamelessly uninnovative RTS formula that's been beaten to death hundreds of times before.

Plus RA3 went flying through the ceiling for it's overuse/abuse of female characters and too much comedy. RA2 was fun and humorous too but I always felt it had that sort of dark war tone hanging in there.

Unless EA is given an insanely huge buyout, they are not gonna give up C&C rights.

Westwood was great, but you can file this in the "day after flaming seagulls erupt from my toilet" category. Westwood is about as likely to come back to life as Dynamix, or Looking Glass, or Origin. Dead is dead, folks- petitions do not make you into Dr. Frankenstein.

Also, while we're on the subject, EA + C&C = EPIC FAIL. Not gonna stick my arm into the shit any deeper than that; we've had too many topics end in that particular septic tank already.

Remember, kids: illiteracy is cool. If you took the time to read this, you are clearly a loser who will never get laid. You've been warned.
