While folks around the Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars are still sour with the tightrope balancing act Electronic Arts pulled off for the multiplayer, EA seems to have something more in store for the real-time strategy title. A banner advertisement at the official Command & Conquer website says that Command & Conquer 3 will be revolutionized soon.

And by soon, they meant by August 7, 2007. Speculations range from a mod to a final solution to the multiplayer issues, but we'll pile the greenbacks on the off-chance that this is another expansion to the C&C universe, just as its later titles have had at least one in the past.

 

Along with the new C&C development is Electronic Arts' full confirmation of the Crysis and Command & Conquer fusion, which they've dubbed Command & Crysis: The Dead Six. Unlike what was speculated in the past, the title isn't exactly a stand alone game - it's being designed as a mod to EA's upcoming Crysis.

But in the tradition of Command & Conquer: Renegade, Command & Crysis will offer players to participate in combat from the "battlefield perspective," experiencing whole generations of C&C history since Command & Conquer: Red Alert up to the present, and even "change the fate" of the universe.

Updates to the story will be addressed through episodes, although freedom will be given to aspiring modders to create their own stories or games through the The Dead Six core.
