Better than Command & Conquer Generals

I say this because these games, though a little older than Command & Conquer Generals, involve more interesting strategy, AND they use movie stars, such as the guy who did Darth Vader's voice in Star Wars, in the live action cut scenes. The story, the cut scenes, the strategy, make these games better than Generals, and the graphics, even though not 3D accelerated style, are still crisp and interesting.

Command & Conquer Generals is a more cheaply made, and dumber, game. It requires little thought to play, click, explode, etc., and I say it was cheaply made because they didn't have to pay professional actors (there are none in Generals) nor did they have to pay a writer to create a story (there is no story in Generals, just a bunch of flashy missions). If all you want is sheer eye candy and explosions buy Command & Conquer Generals, but if you want a real game with riveting gameplay, story, great cutscenes, Hollywood acting, heck this package contains many real games, all excellent, buy the Command & Conquer Collection.

in response to the age of the games

Red Alert is the first game I ever played multiplayer, it is the first strategy game I ever played, It is still one of the most simple games I have played (other than the original nintendo games). In my opinion, it is a classic. The others are cash cow expansions and extensions from the original, yet they still keep the flare. Best series of games I 've found for single player mission sequence gaming.

Look at it

Many people seem to prefer the polished Tiberian Sun, but Red Alert 2 really sticks out in my mind. It is one of most enjoyable games I've ever played. It is sillier than most, but very very well done, and the lighter atmosphere is really refreshing. I'm sorry I skipped this game when it first came out, and I'm glad I had the opportunity to play it while it could still be found.

Renegade is fantastic. It's really fun for an original Command and Conquer fan to be able to run around "in the game" in first person and actually fight into and destroy "The Hand of Nod." Renegade isn't something a person will replay a thousand times, but it is something I'd recommend in a minute to every C&C fan.

Technical note: I couldn't get everything to play properly under Windows XP SP2 either, not out of the box. And I too fixed the problem by setting compatibility mode as described by T. Tschirgi in a previous comment. I haven't attempted any multiplayer functionality.

This collection is easily the best value for the money of ... well, pretty much anything. I would recommend this collection as a package in a heartbeat. There is a lot of gameplay here, and the simpler graphics and simpler gameplay translates into a faster, cleaner, less choppy and less frustrating experience. You can't really buy anything anymore without hesitation, but I think this is an exception.

Fun game, good times had by all

The game has good graphics, and this series had 5 different games. We relax with it weekly and the shipping and receipt of product was fast and in good standing.

Great Game for the Strategy War Gamer

The C&C collection is a great game for war gamers,however I could not install Renegade on my XP all the other games installed fine though.Also EA tech support is horrible.This game is still great buy.
