Rumor: Command & Conquer FPS inbound, dubbed 'Tiberium'

Aptly titled games blog, VideoGameBlogger.com, claims to have gotten a peek at Game Informer's January '08 issue. Featured on the cover of said issue – evidenced by the totally crappy pic over to the right – is a new FPS in the Command & Conquer universe titled Tiberium. Lending credence to the rumor is Game Informer's recent addiction to debuting games on their cover: Borderlands in September, Dead Space in October, Brutal Legend in November, and Ghostbusters in December.

VideoGamesBlogger.com has some additional details of the game, most notably that it's an FPS as opposed to the series' usual RTS format (though not the first C&C FPS, remember Renegade?); it's set 11 years after the end of the third Tiberium war (C&C fanfic writers, get to work); and is a squad-based shooter "described as Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter meets Battlefield meets Rainbow Six Vegas." Wow, that must've been some meeting.
