C&C: the first decade
Well its been out for a while, but EA has finally released patch 1.02. This basically makes all the original C&C's work on XP. Its great! I forgot just how good Red Alert etc really is and how it stacks up against the current competition

I have them all anyway so never bothered with this, but you're right, superb games and a benchmark of the RTS genre for me. Red Alert 2 is probably my favourite little saga in the series, Yuri's revenge included.
The Aftermath expansion for RA1 was also excellent, great units and missions

Decent strategy games, but they were no command and conquer games I can assure you
EP = Expansion Pack

Will this mean C&C will stop crashing on my machine and work properly?
