Tiberium Alliances C&C Tiberium Alliances Coming To Steam

[Plok 323]

Even with EA doubling down on releasing their back catalogue on more digital storefronts, this news came out of left field: Tiberium Alliances, the browser game from 2012 most of us tend to even forget exists, received a Steam page. The game whose servers have outlived many core titles over the years apparently has enough of a playerbase to warrant a proper PC frontend.

The release date is not yet known, nor whether a Steam account will be enough to connect or will it still depend on EA accounts.

This reminded me of the old Generals flash game (iirc you piloted a Commanche against the GLA), but I can't find it anywhere. Big sad.

C&C Attack Copter was shut down from Pogo.com 14 years ago. No archive was made.

That's 13 years too late. Should have been a PC game not a web browser game. Gave up on the game years ago.

I find it weird how early internet stuff (digital stuff in general now that I think about it) can just dissapear like that without a single backup anywhere.

Another example is that for some lesser known content (movies, series, games) you sometimes cannot find it anywhere on the internet (only by using physical copies). You would say someone uploaded it somewhere on the internet (at least once).

Same way the effort of one or two people can mean the difference between it being lost and enjoyed by many.

You mean that C&C Generals flash card game? I still have it but I have to find it.

No I don't mean that, but that does sound intriguing.

 

Never mind, found the card game somewhere deep in the CNCNZ archives. It was disappointing, but I guess that's as expected.
