PS: Great cast!

Although I'm completely uninterested in this millionth incarnation of the C&C franchise as a game which, in my opinion, should've moved on to other things around 12 years ago (after the outstanding Red Alert 1 which brought something new design, if not gameplay wise) I must say that I'm very, very impressed with the cast for the FMV sequences! Given today's game budgets MORE companies should do that thing, IMHO, especially since a(n awful) film adaptation follows in many cases anyway and FMV pwns ANY attempt at making CGI plastic dolls if done properly.

I do realize that the videos will be intentionally cheesy but hey, these are recognizable faces for sure!

Tim Curry? Still remember him from one of my favorite thriller movies, "The Hunt for Red October" (I don't know why but I love this film - I watch it every time it comes up in television). =)

Peter Stormare? Played more villains/mad scientists/nutjobs that I care to remember (I saw him recently in an episode of Monk where he played a Russian art dealer impostor. Coincidence? I think not.).

Jonathan Pryce? Two words: Seamus O'Roarke. Or, of course, the movie Brazil although you might remember him from shittier stuff (except for the first movie which was awesome until the franchise was rolled to death by trying to suck out as much money as they could from it) like Pirates of the Caribbean.

Somehow only the actresses I don't care about - perhaps because they hired them mostly for their looks (which in some cases worked and in others, *mumblejennymccarthymumble*, didn't.

I think I might buy the game just because of these. Unless I get it for free but I doubt it - we have other RTS-only experts that get to review most major releases.
