Though some theories hold that the next Mercenaries game is the mystery reveal EA and BioWare have planned for the Video Game Awards, the smart money is still on a Command & Conquer game. And if that’s the case, it’ll probably be called Command & Conquer: Alliances if 15 domain registries by Electronic Arts are any indication.
Ranging from “commandandconquerlliances.com” to “redalertalliances.com” and “tiberiumalliances.com” the domains, spotted as always by Fusible.com, were registered on December 2 by EA. We’ll find out on December 10 in LA, or on Spike if you’re watching from home. The awards show will be live on both coasts, finally.
Domain names point to next game being called Command & Conquer: Alliances [Fusible]

Monday, December 5, 2011 at 2:06 PMDoesn’t it? Think Command & Conquer: Generals – this was the last game to have Technicals. So this leads me to believe it is a screenshot of a follow up of the Generals series. This vehicle probably belongs to the GLA faction.

Monday, December 5, 2011 at 2:54 PMIt had better be a new version of Generals. I loved that game so much and am still pissed at EA for not patching it to run on Windows 7/Vista. (I run it in a VM)

Monday, December 5, 2011 at 5:21 PMIs it going to be a first person shooter?

Monday, December 5, 2011 at 9:01 PMPlease no more Tiberium. That series deserves to die.
Generals and Red Alert are great, but I hope the next game is a new series.
