Command & Conquer 3 GDI Preview

The Global Defense Initiative (GDI) was formed the moment the world recognized Tiberium as an incredibly valuable resource, and a potentially disastrous threat. The top military and political powers of the world came together to form this special entity, but The Brotherhood of Nod's violent and hostile actions forced GDI to take on the responsibility of ruling the civilized world as a benevolent dictatorship. As the world became engulfed in war, hammered by destructive Ion Storms, and strangled by Tiberium itself, GDI shouldered more and more responsibility. Eventually the nations of our world collapsed, leaving only GDI to pick up the pieces and preserve the few livable areas available to humanity. As an organization rooted in the modern military powers of today, GDI's weaponry is somewhat familiar. Expensive but robust, their weapons and vehicles are borne of decades of field testing and military experience. From heavily armored tanks to versatile attack aircraft, GDI demands the best. As the Third Tiberium War once again tests the will of humanity to survive, GDI once again steps forward to defend civilization.
