EA just released source code for a bunch of old Command and Conquer games, and added Steam Workshop support to bangers like C&C 3: Tiberium Wars

How could I expect a source code release by my own forces?

The old Westwood studios would approve, if they weren't murdered by EA decades ago.
C&C Generals is included? Oh my!
- I have put more hours into red alert 2 and generals/ZH than the rest of my entire gaming collection combined...
  
  This does bring a smile to my face.
Rejoice children of Nod! For our time has arrived.
To use the compiled binaries, you must own the game. The C&C Remastered Collection is available for purchase on EA App or Steam.

I'm very surprised it's under GPL v3, a copyleft license. I was expecting much worse.
Wait.... Are they the good guys now?
- No
  
  They're hoping the mod communities will put life back into these games, increasing sales at little to no expense to EA. It just so happens to be good for the consumer too.
