Re: Missing games from Games list on the Command & Conquer website

@WarrenKWoodhouse 

Retaliation is the just Playstation version of the Red alert 1 expansions, though.

And I don't see why you insist so vehemently on that Westwood logo. Westwood is dead, sheesh. Accept that already.

And btw, World Builder is also not a game.... You indeed just need to accept that Westwood/EA Pacific/EA LA/Victory Games has been bought and closed years ago by EA. So, all the right lay within EA, which would make  it weird to give them credit on the new site when they don't even exist anymore....

@Nyerguds Westwood ain't dead -- just frozen in time!! Merged with EA DICE LA, so technically not dead, just a new name and location. I'm insistent because of posterity more than anything else. Each EA studio has created games and most of them are on the official EA website in the Games page, such as The Sims 4 page which has the Maxis studio and that links to the EA studio page of Maxis. For overall design per page, I would probably include each studio logo in the footer for each game that studio has made. As a nostalgic retro gamer, I can not accept that Westwood Studios is dead, not really.

@WarrenKWoodhouseThe "company" Westwood literally doesn't exist anymore. It is gone, dead, kaput.

Many people from Westwood left EA already since EA aquired them into EA LA/Danger Close Games, where many Westwood-employees got the boot. Most of them went to Petroglyph Games, but indeed some of them also went to DICE LA. As you can see, the employees of Westwood have been splintered all over the gaming-development-world. Obviously your reasons for this are nostalgic reasons, but the reality is that Westwood doesn't exist for 17 years now.... Just accept that and move on... EA could certainly improve the game-history pages, like they did on the old commandandconquer.com when the forum was still up. But referencing Westwood, nah. Especially because Westwood hasn't made any of the CNC-games after 2003.... So, please stop insisting on this as we already told you why this won't happen...

Instead of the Westwood logo I would accept EA DICE LA as the alternative. Also, love the idea of game history pages, kind of like wikis have history pages. Love the idea but definitely want to see all of the games on the games page on the EA website, past and present, expansion packs, etc.

I’ll accept Westwood is dead. Where exactly were they based at originally and at their last place because I’m making a map of the video game developers worldwide and definitely need to add them to the map. :D

@WarrenKWoodhouseFirst of, it is up to EA what it wants to do with the Command and Conquer website. So, they don't have to accept anything you say or do anything that you want them to do. Some of your suggestions are good, but not all of them. Do you know btw that the community also made a nice CNC-wiki? See here: https://cnc.gamepedia.com/Command_%26_Conquer_Wiki

EA DICE LA of course can't be referenced as one of the original authors of the CNC-games, because it is a studio that existed only AFTER the last CNC-game released. Also, only a few programmers that are working there have probably been part of EA pacific/LA/Westwood as most of them have left EA. So, referencing them in general would be weird. They could really extend the history part and could maybe add the name of the studio who worked at each game to the description to each game, but that would only take up space on the site. So, I would recommend them to either make a whole history-part on the site or just not referencing the developers at all. And it seems like no one is really agreeing with you on this, so it would actually be nice if you could not ask it for the seventh time....  haha I agree with that EA misses maybe one or two CNC game on their page, but also referencing all of the expansion packs might me a bit much on the minimalistic site they have nowadays for CNC.

I don't know detailed info on Westwood, but I'm sure Google can help you with this.... Really nice that you are making a map of game developers world-wide. Can we already look at what you added to that map so far? 🙂
