Tiberium FPS Announced
Set in a stunning sci-fi world with spectacular visual effects and dramatic environments, Tiberium takes players on an adventure through an environmentally-devastated world and places them in the heart of an epic battle for control this powerful energy source.
Featuring a unique blend of first-person shooting and tactical squad combat, every moment in Tiberium is intense, every mission leaves players breathless. To take the first-person shooter experience deeper into strategic combat, players will control multiple infantry, armor, and air squads as the fight escalates. In Tiberium, Vega is the most powerful presence on the battlefield, and the squads are his most decisive weapon. Players can take multi-squad control combat into single-player or bring the action into online multiplayer battles.
Mike Verdu, VP and General Manager at EA Los Angeles added, “EALA has a long history of developing groundbreaking real-time strategy games with the Command & Conquer series. That series also originally introduced the Tiberium universe to gamers worldwide. Now, we are growing Tiberium from a simple backdrop to a fully realized universe with its own unique, hybrid squad-based shooter gameplay. This is the birth of a new franchise — we couldn’t be more excited.”
Developed at EA Los Angeles, Tiberium will be available worldwide in Fall 2008 for the Xbox 360, PS3 and PC. For more information on Tiberium, visit www.Tiberium.com.

I think this should do well. Does it have online multiplayer? That would be great its like bringing FPS into a RTS world, we just need an overlord player to tell each of us where to go and it would be awesome.

[...] Tiberium is another new intellectual property (IP) from EA that managed to excite me not only because of the world it’s set in but also because of the fragtastic transformer-like weapon it has. I think that alone is good enough to get excited about. I’m sure we’ll get more details as the release approaches but until then enjoy the screenshot blast. [...]
