Command & Conquer 3 developer EA Los Angeles has admitted that it has had a "chronic issue [with product support] for more than four years," and is forming a dedicated support team to try and address the issue.

"I am not as proud of our record in supporting our games after launch. In fact, I'm downright unhappy with that aspect of our business," EALA general manager Mike Verdu wrote on the official C&C site. Read more »

style="border: medium none ;">Being an evil mastermind is a rather demanding job, and one that doesn't really allow the time for proper exploration of career alternatives. Given that, it's easy to understand why Command & Conquer's Kane is continually plotting, scheming, masterminding and worse: he really has no choice. EA understands this, and obliged the man another run at worldwide domination in Command & Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath, now out on Xbox 360. Read more »

Command & Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath marks the third real-time strategy game EA Los Angeles has brought to Xbox 360. One of the major claims this time around is that the studio has, at long last, resolved the controls it says were "lauded by critics."

But is this the control scheme for real-time strategy efforts on consoles? Lead producer Jim Vessella thinks so. Well, as far as next week's one-two punch of Kane's Wrath and Supreme Commander on Xbox 360 is concerned. Read more »

Next week's Xbox 360 release of EA LA's Command & Conquer 3 expansion Kane's Wrath will help the developer "test the waters" regarding standalone game expansions.

While the PC edition of Kane's Wrath, which premiered earlier this year, required ownership of Command & Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars, the cover of the Xbox 360 version boasts that it "DOES NOT require Command & Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars to play." Read more »

Here are eleven new snaps from the Command & Conquer 3 expansion pack Kane's Wrath, due out on PC and Xbox 360 this March.

Electronic Arts has released a few new screenshots and unit renders for its upcoming expansion pack to Command and Conquer 3. Check them out below.

Command and Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath is set for a spring 2008 release on PC and Xbox 360.

The live-action cutscenes of the upcoming Command & Conquer 3 expansion pack Kane's Wrath will showcase the acting talents of Natasha Henstridge (pictured left), described on IMDB as "The Chick from Species," and Carl Lumbly, who played Marcus Dixon in Alias, voiced J'onn J'onzz in the Justice League cartoon series, and appeared in one episode of Battlestar Galactica. The two will be joined on-screen by returning C&C veteran Joe Kucan, who plays Kane, the leader of the Brotherhood of Nod. EA says the trio are the "epicenter" of the expansion's 20-year story, which begins with the rebuilding of the Brotherhood following the Second Tiberium War. Pictures of the three characters accompanied the announcement. There is no word yet if the other famed actors from Command & Conquer 3--such as Tricia Helfer, Billy Dee Williams, Grace Park, Josh Holloway, and Michael Ironside--will be reprising their roles in the prequel. Currently under development at EA Los Angeles, the studio responsible for Command & Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars (PC, X360), Kane's Wrath is slated to arrive on PC and Xbox 360 in spring 2008. The expansion will pack six new sub-factions along with new units, structures, and powers, with the console version said to be sporting "a revolutionary new radial interface."

A trailer for the Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars expansion pack Kane's Wrath is now available, offering cinematic and gameplay footage. Command & Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath is due out next year for PC and Xbox 360.

GameSpot is the first out the gate with a Command & Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath Q&A. Executive producer Mike Verdu is asked about the new features and content found in the expansion pack.

Last night on the first Command & Conquer BattleCast, Electronic Arts announced the first expansion pack for Command & Conquer 3, subtitled Kane's Wrath. The core addition to the game comes in the form of a new "global domination meta-game," described as "Risk on steroids" by producer Jim Vassella. The player will move their armies around a global map, and upon collision with the enemy, the game will shift to a standard C&C match. Upon exiting the match, the remnants of your army will persist in the game world, as in a game like Creative Assembly's Rome: Total War. In addition to the campaign map, a new radial interface will be brought over to both the Xbox 360 and PC versions of the game. The interface allows the player to manage a base from any point on the map, assigning queues on the fly. As far as standard additions go, each faction will now feature two sub-factions, which come with new units, upgrades, powers, and structures. Online play will also be bolstered with over two dozen maps. "As the title suggests, Kane's Wrath is all about Kane, and the rise of NOD following the second Tiberium War, taking the player through the third Tiberium War and beyond," said producer Jim Vassella. The campaign will feature live-action cinematics as before, with Joseph Kucan reprising his role as Kane. "We've been really listening to the fans. We've been looking at the forums. We want to implement as much of your ideas as possible. We've been doing it all throughout development on this," added Vassella. The Xbox 360 version will be launching simultaneously with the PC version, although no time-frame was given. For a closer look, check out the video.
