''Command & Conquer: Generals'' is a real-time strategy video game and the seventh installment in the ''Command & Conquer'' series. It was released for Microsoft Windows and Mac OS operating systems in 2003 and 2004. While the Windows version of ''Generals'' was developed by EA Pacific and published by EA Games, the Mac OS X version was developed and published by Aspyr Media. The Mac OS X version was re-released by Aspyr for the Mac App Store on March 12, 2015. In the game, the player can choose from three different factions: the United States, China and the Global Liberation Army (GLA). ''Generals'' utilizes SAGE (Strategy Action Game Engine), an extended version of the ''Command & Conquer: Renegade''s 3D engine. An expansion pack, entitled ''Command & Conquer: Generals – Zero Hour'', was additionally released for PC in 2003, and for Mac OS in 2005. Both ''Generals'' and ''Zero Hour'' were met with highly positive reviews. A sequel, ''Command & Conquer: Generals 2'', was in development, until it was repurposed to a free-to-play game known as simply ''Command & Conquer''. The new game was part of the ''Generals'' franchise and was cancelled on October 29, 2013 by EA after negative feedback during the closed Alpha test. ==Plot== ''Generals'' takes place in the near future, with players given a choice of three factions to play. In ''Generals'', the United States and China are the world's two superpowers, and are the targets of the Global Liberation Army (GLA), an omnipresent borderless terrorist organization, fighting as a fanatical irregular force. The United States and China are depicted as allies in the series who occasionally co-operate against the GLA, whose goals is the elimination of the military forces of China and the United States. The game begins with a devastating GLA nuclear attack on Beijing and a subsequent GLA attack on the Three Gorges Dam. The player assumes the role of a Chinese general who rallies the remaining Chinese forces and counterattacks. The general eventually destroys the GLA cell masterminding all Pacific Rim operations. The player then assumes the role of another GLA general who regroups GLA forces in Central Asia and gathers funds and biological weapons. In doing so, he has to face both American and Chinese armies and a GLA splinter cell. His campaign eventually culminates in the overtaking of the Baikonur Cosmodrome and the firing of a Soyuz rocket bearing a biological MIRV at an unnamed city. At this point the American campaign begins in which the USA engages the GLA across the Middle East and the Central Asia. A joint American-Chinese operation eventually destroys the main GLA command base in Astana, Kazakhstan. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Command & Conquer: Generals」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
