Success in battle requires more than just a keen battle strategy. Fight for control as you struggle to collect the resources necessary to build new bases, troops, and weaponry, all while keeping the enemy at bay. Command and Conquer everything.

Take a first-person view of the C&C universe through Command & Conquer: Renegade – the series’ one and only first-person shooter – or start playing from the very beginning and enjoy the frenetic style of combat, immersive strategy and campy banter that launched a generation of strategy warfare games.

Command & Conquer holds a special place in my heart, especially Tiberian Sun - the first game I saw my dad playing. I still remember opening box with two CDs and the futuristic soldier on the cover. Like any kid, I wanted to be like my dad. I played Tiberian Sun, then Red Alert, Red Alert 2, and Yuri’s Revenge was the first game I got for Christmas. That snowy, cold day at my grandparents’ house, surrounded by my family in good health and spirits. Red Alert brings back memories of meaningful moments in my life, some parts of that life are no longer and that's why I'm so grateful for this series and getting back to it brings me joy.inox

Red Alert 2 and Yuri's Revenge where the first game + expansion i got for my first pc ever, stayed up a bit latter to make sure it was ready for next day. I played it at a time where you played the games you got, there was no choice, internet was becoming a thing and online stores didn't exist. I used to bring the 3 or 4 cds every weekend to my friends house so we could progress the game together side by side. We played the game so much that the cds got scratched or something. I remember my most clear memory being the kremlin mission for the soviets in the hardest difficult, where there was barely any time to build 10 kirovs before yuri destroyed our base and after that was a game of patience to upgrade those kirovs without losing one. This is not just nostalgia, this is a gog and belongs to be available forever

Red Alert 2 and Yuri's Revenge were the games that made me an RTS fan. I would move my whole computer over to my friends house and have LAN parties all weekend. I probably have the most time on Red Alert 2 and Generals, but I also enjoyed Tiberian Sun. I have the 10 year edition, but would love offline installers for The Ultimate Collection.

I played *SO* many hours of Command and Conquer Red Alert and Tiberium Wars back in the day. The Command & Conquer series has some of the most rock solid RTS games ever made. If these games were on GOG I would finally feel compelled revisit each and every one of them!

Ultimate Collection is on EA, but not in HD. OpenCNC3D could be engine, but not game for full meaning and if some patches broke something for multiplayer, cheaters and paying seasons bundle(5+5 could break bank for multiplayer access, singleplayer is part of story - but not full) is question how to access EA property and not disassemble and not make story and UI paths in unwanted bug bounty hunters(AI XXL inner quest) if there is something to know about that, for players. Ultimate Collection on EA today, and for multiplayer maybe mandatory EA app, not question how to approach Galaxy bridge for EA or install EA app for GOG offline installers. Historic CD bundle from somewhere, that could be missions for story maker for your story tellers and make proposal here for friendly stores and their affiliate links on GOG. Seems unprobable for GDI vs NOD exchange of property.

This isn't just about older C and C game like Red Alert 2 and General going to be playable but ensuring EVERY games in this collection to work in the future. Me and my friends bought Red Alert 3 on Steam and played it with mods only to get blasted with "Same CD keys" error. It is an error EA failed to fix for years now. Let us play the game that we purchase!

I bought this collection twice in particular trying to get it to run on Windows 10. I think I got the first two games and red alert to play, but if anyone can make that happen I bet it'll be here

Black & White 2
Black & White 2In the game, the player takes the role of a god called from the void (nothingness) to help those who invoked them. However, the player is not an omnipotent style god, but rather a god who rises and falls with his believers and the player must help develop their nature according to their good or evil desires. The player also has a creature, their physical representation in the world, which takes the form of an anthropomorphic ape, lion, wolf, turtle, cow, or tiger. Its physical manifestation can grow to an immense size, and adopt a good or evil persona separate of the player's. They develop their character as the player rewards or punishes their actions. In addition to the god simulation and city-building elements introduced in the original Black & White, Black & White 2 also features elements of real-time strategy gameplay, with the addition of controllable warfare and fighting units.
