Are you a fan of the video game saga Command and Conquer? In this case, we will analyze one of the most famous games on the market representing it, specifically Command and Conquer: Tiberian Sun. In this case, we find ourselves with a title that, although like the others, maintains the main mechanics that made the story famous, it also has some elements worth analyzing.

Although the original game starts with the elimination of Hitler thanks to the use of a machine that made it possible to travel to the past, developed by none other than Albert Einstein, in this case, we must say that Command and Conquer: Tiberian Sun takes place much later, around the year 2030, when the defense initiative has won the earth, so it is a title with much more modern elements than other installments of the saga.

In the first instance, we should point out that Command and Conquer: Tiberian Sun is a real-time strategy game that aims to continue with the original game's story so that the fun proposal continues. Indeed, on this occasion, we have a dispute in which three sides appear: the Global Defense Initiative (GDI), the Brotherhood of Nod (Nod), and the Forgotten.

You have to know that beyond the presence of the three sides, it is essential to consider that we can only choose between the first two because although the third ones appear in the game, we cannot select them. We don't know why the developers have made this decision, but in any case, the entertainment is assured with the two factions we effectively have.

Obviously, and no matter which of the factions you choose, the fundamental thing about this game is that you will have to eliminate all the enemies before they eliminate you, so try to defeat them as soon as possible. To do this, you will have to think of a series of strategies that will allow you to be safe when defending and attacking without neglecting the rear since the enemy is mighty.

Once you have decided whether you want to represent the Global Defense Initiative (GDI) or the Brotherhood of Nod (Nod), we could say that the game begins. As in the rest of the franchise, we have to first take care of getting all the resources we can and then of the construction of buildings, which will serve as bases since we will store the material elements there. Then it will be time to start attacking and also defend ourselves.

Different scenarios will then appear, and as they appear, we will learn all the details related to the overall story from a series of scenes that even use real videos, a common denominator of the saga. You'll even see Hollywood actors appear in some of these videos, several of them even well-known, so this is an element that is as distinctive as it elevates the level of the game.

An attractive feature of Command and Conquer: Tiberian Sun is that every single decision you make as you progress will almost entirely impact the game's outcome, so you should be careful about that. All the decisions you make will have an almost immediate effect on the plot of the title, and that also helps that if we play it several times, the results will be completely different between them.

Released in 1999, Command and Conquer: Tiberian Sun is a title that has a user interface that corresponds precisely to what we expect for a game that tries to emulate the best of the 90s. In other words, if you have come to this game hoping it to surprise you from the aesthetic point of view, you have to know that this is not its strong point but that the best is related to the entertainment proposal.

As always, you will see that the left and central part of the screen shows us the game itself, while on the right side of the monitor, we will see all the resources we have at our disposal, as well as being able to execute their use. In this way, you may never lose sight of your options and take full advantage of them.

We must think that we can select several weapons and other resources during the battle. The choice is not merely visual; each is activated and produces a different type of destruction. That's why it's vital that you know which weapon to use in each case to do as much damage as possible.

In summary, we must say that if you are a fan of the Command and Conquer saga, you can't miss Command and Conquer: Tiberian Sun in any way, taking into account that it is a worthy heir of the previous versions and installments. Keeping the spirit of the franchise, here appear some unique elements that compel us to give it a chance if we have been entertained with others.
