Game On! - General's LIVE!!

You'll find this story at just about all the gaming sites, so no link for you.  It has been confirmed that the next C&C game will be a General's title.  I'll be waiting without baiting my breath, because the trailer says to wait until 2013.

While I wanted the next in the series to be Generals, I find myself unsure of which direction I want the team to take with it.

Should it stick with the tried-and-true formula that we saw with it's predecessor?  I think that would be very fitting and easy to get into, but will it generate enough positive views to make sure the title doesn't go the way of a dodo named Age of Empires?

Should it go looser and a bit more over the top ala Red Alert?  I say no to this one, because that's exactly what Red Alert is for.

Or should it attempt to be much more serious, such as with Company of Heroes?  I don't see EA doing that, especially with this series.  However, it's worth looking into seeing as how the original Generals was an exaggerated view of a current world issue.

As I seem to always say - time will tell!
