C&C: the first decade

Zirax · 10-01-2007, 11:35

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

I used to love C&C Generals and particularly Zero Hour

Yup

More weapons, more specialised armies, improved maps / AI

Decent strategy games, but they were no command and conquer games I can assure you

EP = Expansion Pack

You're right. People say the Generals games were not good, when what they should in fact have said is they weren't C&C.

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

oh wow, so now the original C&C will work on XP?

It was my first ever game for my home PC, got me hooked on games from then on

cant wait to have another blast at it later!
