Rating: Summary: True undeniable classics! Review: Forgive me, but before Red Alert, I never heard of the Real-time Strategy genre before. My friend loaned me Red Alert, and I was NEVER the same again. I would spend HOURS UPON HOURS caught up in the conflict between the Soviets and Allies. Then I bought Tiberian Sun, while others say it is bad, I liked it. I also liked Blizzard's Starcraft games, and said that Westwood and Blizzard were the two best in the genre. No longer. Westwood has pulled way ahead of Starcraft when Red Alert Two came out. I was surfing the net for stuff to download for Red Alert (I finally got my own copy) and I came across the announcement for Red Alert Two. I got it for last Christmas, and I could not believe my eyes. Westwood took something that was great, and made it even BETTER! If you have never played a RTS before and are wondering what all the hype is, get this set. If you're a fan of Starcraft (still a great game) and bored, get this set. You will be amazed.

Rating: Summary: Greatest Series Ever Review: I am 14, and I have been playing C&C since I was 11. I have ever game that is included in this pack. I have been addicted and counld not wait for the next game/expanion pack to come out. I like the Red Alert games better, but both are very Enjoyable. I suggest when you play this game to start with C&C and it's expansion pack, and then Tiberian Sun. After you beat these two games, I would work on the Red Alert Series. I ecspecially enjoy the internet games in RA2 because of all of the diverse Strategies and players you encounter. I hope that you are able to enjoy these games to their full extent.

Rating: Summary: This is great!! Review: I started playing the C&C games way back, when they came out. I saw this at a store a few weeks ago and I was like "cool, all 4 of them in one package," so I bought it. I was completely new to Tiberian Sun and RA2 and they totally blew me away. The AI is much better and so are the graphics. However, I must warn you if you are running XP then you won't be able to play the original C&C or the Win 95' version of RA so you will have to install it on DOS. Oh, yeah, I got this 20 dollars cheaper at gamestop so this might not be the place to buy it.
Rating: Summary: Classics Review: I'll never forget playing Command and Conquer way back when in 1996(?) What a great game. Everything about it, from the units, to the background music (truely futuristic and eerire), to the graphics, to the warfare. It was a great game. (to this day I still dont know what the spaceship is on GDI level 2 or 3, I don't remember.) I got Red Alert for Christmas later on, and it wasn't just a sequel, it was a different take entirely on the series. Once again, a great story along with all of the things I said above. These are the kinda games that you can play for hours because they are so complex and fun. Plus, the multiplayer is addicting. I haven't played much of TS, but from what I have played, I wasn't truley impressed. Anyway, I got Red Alert 2 this past Christmas, and let me say, 5 years after playing C&C, I am once again in love with these games. RA2 is the best (gameplay etc) but RA and CC are some of my favorite games of all time. I can't help but feel a strong sense of nostalgia when I look on my RA and CC boxes. I strongly recommend these games to anyone who loves strategic video games.
Rating: Summary: Herein lie some of the best strategy games ever created Review: If you haven't heard of Command & Conquer, you probably don't play PC games very often. Be advised that these are some of the most universally acclaimed titles ever released, and that you WILL enjoy them! The original C&C is still selling copies now, years after it first hit store shelves. Red Alert is definitely the best follow-up in recent history, and Red Alert 2 is an excellent sequel. The only black sheep here is Tiberian Sun, which was something of a disappointment, but the other three games definitely are worth the value of this bundle.If you haven't played one or more of these games, this is an excellent time to start! If you haven't played ANY of them (yes, you're one of the five people that hasn't), get it NOW! That's a direct order, mister. Once you've mastered the interface, which should take even a moron only a few clicks, go out and have at it with all your friends. They have probably been playing for some years now, and are secretly cracking jokes about your tactical ineptitude behind your back. Perhaps you'll teach them a thing or two.

Rating: Summary: This is great!! Review: The absolute best RTS ever made. The missions for both GDI and NOD are chanlliging in the extreme if you have never play this I recommend you pick it up at the bargain rack. It may be old but for its time it was very advanced. This game and warcraft started a revolution in the computer game industry
