I like the way this guy thinks and have often pondered the same thing. Naturally most peoples favourite post apocalyptic universes are Fallout, Mad Max and Terminator and I sure as hell love those too but Command & Conquer 2 Tiberian Sun is probably still my favourite (although Fallout is starting to win me over haha). When I tell people Tiberian Sun is one of my favourite dark apocalyptic universes and they look at me surprised cause they've either forgotten it or thought of it as a scifi game. Red Alert 2 is prob my favourite in the series for gameplay but for me nothing beats CnC2 Tiberian Sun for atmosphere and universe. I loved all those night missions and green tiberian fields glowing in the darkness. I loved all the cutscenes and the actors involved (like Michael Biehn and the late James Earl Jones) even more! When all the FMV is assembled together they actually make a pretty cool cheesy retro 90s apocalyptic scifi film hence why you see people combining them all together as one big 'movie' on youtube. The fact that to this day we have more and more truly amazing fan mods (eg Twisted Insurrection, Shattered Paradise, Tiberium Crisis, Tiberium Resurrection, Crystallized Doom etc) coming out continuing the Tiberian Sun story shows just how powerful and immersive CnC2's world was. Hell it's dark apocalyptic world also inspired me to remake a Tiberian Africa scenario for Sid Meier's Civilization 2 which I'll be releasing soon! I really hope EA let Petroglyph remaster CnC2 one day!
