Also I'd have liked to have seen Westwood carry on with the series because they had a timeline mapped out that would have seen the Tiberium and Red Alert worlds cross which would have been very cool. EA plan to keep them seperate.
I personally didn't find the main game too short or too easy. There's a lot of challenge in some of the later missions, and if you try them on hard mode, I'm sure they will be tough to complete. As for the main game being too short, I found that there are plenty of missions for both the GDI and NOD. Do also remember if you manage to complete these two campaigns, the Scrin campaign will be unlocked. Then you actually have three campaigns.
On the other hand, if you, like Sharingan, compare the main game (campaigning) to Warcraft 3, it is much shorter. I remember when I first got Warcraft 3, and later the expansion called Frozen Throne, the single player mode lasted for a long, long time. There were long campaigns with different factions, and quite a few surprises along the way. The way you controlled certain heroes through the missions was also excellent, something I miss a bit in other RTS games. So, if one compares the main campaigns of Warcraft 3 and Tiberium Wars, I think the Warcraft one is better.
Just have to add that the Online mode in Warcraft 3 was excellent. Never had any problems with connections or anything like that, which was horrible in Generals for example.
