There is a sense, after each sequel, that the world is little worse off than ever before, even despite you "winning". Kane still lives, the GDI are barely keeping the peace in the last of the Green Zones and the tiberium fields continue to spread across the globe. It's like looking at a world on the brink of collapse. That, plus some of the hokey idiosyncracies native to the series, makes the fiction quite appealing to me. I'm actually quite tempted to buy C&C4 just to see how it all ends. :) One of things I really enjoy about the Tiberium Universe, and which I think is rarely found elsewhere in other games, is this atmosphere of futility that follows your actions throughout the story.
