Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars, released for the Xbox 360 in May 2007, is a real-time strategy (RTS) game developed by Electronic Arts Los Angeles. It serves as a sequel to the 1999 game Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun, returning the series to its Tiberium universe roots. The game is set in 2047 during the Third Tiberium War, featuring three factions: the Global Defense Initiative (GDI), the Brotherhood of Nod, and the alien Scrin.

• Brotherhood of Nod: Specializes in stealth, speed, and unconventional tactics, utilizing guerrilla warfare and subterfuge.
• Scrin: An alien race with advanced technology, emphasizing air superiority and rapid unit deployment.
The Xbox 360 version features a user-friendly interface adapted for console play, with a context-sensitive command system and streamlined controls. It includes a comprehensive single-player campaign with over 30 missions, high-definition live-action cutscenes featuring actors like Tricia Helfer and Michael Ironside, and multiple multiplayer modes supporting up to four players on Xbox Live. Multiplayer modes include Versus, King of the Hill, Capture and Hold, Capture the Flag, and Siege, each offering distinct strategic challenges.

Upon release, the game received positive reviews for its engaging gameplay, high production values, and successful adaptation of RTS mechanics to the console platform.
