Command & Conquer Remastered Collection: Joe Kucan reprises role of Kane for promo video the day before the game launches

Pretty good for someone who advised Stalin.
Also the website linked in the video is neat.
Well, he has a little but it doesn't take much touchup to look virtually identical to his old self.

oh shit!
check at 01:32, in the bottom right corner.
I just want to grab a couple of beers with him. Kane must be fantastic at a bar. Probably can convince me to join the Brotherhood of Nod after three... or two beers. Possibly one. At least one surely.

Uzzy there are some files on the secret web page that might be useful for the OT. There's a 4K wallpaper and two video-only mp4s that could probably be converted to gifs of webps.
edit: actually there's more than that lol. The EVA Installation video can be downloaded and converted to either a gif or a webp too. I think it'd be cool to have it in the OT.

Man they've been handling this remaster perfectly. Everything about it shows they really care about the franchise. Hope it sells well.
I still can't believe what a great job EA is doing with this remastered collection. They seem to make all the right decisions. Does management even know that a few employees are making this collection? The budget must be so low that it doesn't appear in any management report.
This might sound a bit odd, but... one of the things about the original Command and Conquer that really stuck in my mind was the install sequence. I wonder if there's any possibility that might be incorporated into the intro video or something for nostalgia's sake, because I've a half-memory that it resonated for a lot of people.

I'm really, really hoping this is the case.
iirc, the Nintendo 64 release of the game had the install sequence at the beginning as a video.
They gave it to Petroglyph. Petroglyph is made up of former Westwood employees.
So you've got Westwood remastering Westwood classics, throwing in whatever old stuff they had left over from the original production as bonuses. with the original composer re-doing the legendary soundrack, and now Joe F-ing Kucan himself doing the launch promo.
It's literally the smartest thing EA has done in terms of their legacy IPs when it comes to pleasing hardcore fans since...... like, ever?
The fact that it appears in the 'secret site' gives me hope.
YES, literally the best install sequence in any videogame to date. They tried to replicate it with Red Alert, but the magic wasn't quite the same.
This video is awesome. I'd love to have a modern C&C around.
