Over my six months here at Gamespot I have put up a lot of user created maps for the game Command and Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars. Having played most of the C&C series I can say I'm a true fan of user created maps. My first taste at user created content was for the game Red Alert 2. It was my first skirmish match online, so I didn't know too much of what to expect. I start off by building my Tesla coils and such to get my buildings ready. Then out of nowhere monkeys in parachutes start dropping all over my base. I thought, "Ahh those monkeys are so cute." Was I mistaken? Yes I was. Within a couple seconds my entire base was obliterated by these toxic monkeys. Now I couldn't find a picture to put up to show everyone, but true fans of the series know what I'm talking about. From then on I was hooked on user created content.

Recently I put a map up called, "City Blockade," on the Gamespot Downloads Page. What I liked about this map was the attention to detail within the city. The map is well laid out with plenty of buildings through out the city to garrison troops in. There are Tiberium Spikes included which makes capturing them a must. The Spikes are placed around the city in good locations so that not one team has an advantage. Each base has enough room to grow and good space for all of those turtles out there. I highly recommend this map for anyone who loves a good skirmish match.
