Nate, Sebastian, David, and Ryan gather to discuss Westwood Studios' COMMAND & CONQUER, one of the games to popularize the Real-Time Strategy genre in the mid-'90s. We talk terrible FMV story sequences, LAN parties, and how difficult it is to open yourself up to new genres even as an experienced game player. Come for the discussion of the rivalry between Command & Conquer and Warcraft, stay to hear about Ryan's new start-up indie terrorist organization. We also talk a lot about Dune.
