I wasnt really refering to its name, I was just pointing out that it was much like the AvP pulse rifle.

I dont really need to start a new forum on this so here goes: For those of you who have played Tiberian Sun, in the cinematics you sometimes see the infantry with their rifles, they look like Pulse rifles to me!!! Did the designer of that gun from Aliens start a chain of futuristic weaponry for games?

The Pulse-Rifle looking gun in the cinematic is an assault-rifle, it doesn't sound like the M41-A but it just looks very similar, the added bits on it is a recoil pad to stop yourself from flying back aginst the wall or something. It looks quite similar it just isn't exactly the same. That's the only thing that looks related to anything from Aliens or Predator. From what I noticed anyways,

Hmm, I have only played a burned copy of TS so I havnt seen the cinematics of it. I completed the game but nothing really got stuck in my mind because of lack of atmosphere. In other words, TS is horribly boring.

I think the game is too easy, so is the add-on. They are both one of Westwoods blunders. Like RA2, that was easy enough, not much of a challenge to them.

The only unit I actually found interesting was the mobile war factory for the add-on. Now wasn't that a bit fucked up, man. The GDI - mutant - ghost stalker was just to make up for not having Tanya from RA and RA2. Too much of it was orginal to me. At least in Firestorm there is some differences.

I came here thinking this was a discussion about the similarities between SC and AvP now it’s about TS and I know nothing about TS. Perhaps I can get one of my TS loving friends over here.
