http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.joystiq.com/media/2007/12/tiberium-command-and-conquer.jpg (http://www.videogamesblogger.com/2007/12/11/tiberium-command-conquer-fps-game-announced-for-pc-xbox-360-ps3.htm)Aptly titled games blog, VideoGameBlogger.com, claims to have gotten a peak at Game Informer's January '08 issue. Featured on the cover of said issue - evidenced by the totally crappy pic over to the right - is a new FPS in the Command & Conquer universe titled Tiberium. Lending credence to the rumor is Game Informer's recent addiction to debuting games on their cover: Borderlands (http://www.joystiq.com/2007/08/15/gearboxs-borderlands-revealed-on-game-informer-cover/) in September, Dead Space (http://www.joystiq.com/2007/09/14/eas-dead-space-unveiled-by-game-informer/) in October, Brutal Legend (http://www.joystiq.com/2007/10/11/tim-schafers-brutal-legend-lands-on-game-informer-cover/) in November, and Ghostbusters in December.
VideoGamesBlogger.com has some additional details of the game, most notably that it's an FPS as opposed to the series' usual RTS format (though not the first C&C FPS, remember Renegade (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Command_%26_Conquer:_Renegade)?); it's set 11 years after the end of the third Tiberium war (C&C fanfic writers, get to work); and is a squad-based shooter "described as Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter meets Battlefield meets Rainbow Six Vegas." Wow, that must've been some meeting.
