Command and Conquer

[jonek06]

Does anyone here play any of the Command and Conquer series? If so which game is your favorite?

Mine is Red alert 3.

I've only played Tiberian sun. It's old, but still good.

Good luck trying to find Command & Conquer fans in this community. Few people here have proper appreciation for real-time strategy.

That said, I liked Red Alert 2 and Generals the best; Renegade (the FPS spinoff) was also decent. I haven't bothered with Tiberium Wars and Red Alert 3 due to outdated hardware and bad word of mouth about their gameplay; however, considering that EA got Billy Dee Williams, Michael Ironside, Tricia Helfer, Jenny McCarthy, Gemma Atkinson, Ivana Miličević, Kelly Hu, J.K. Simmons, George Takei, Peter Stormare, and Tim Curry (among a great MANY others) for the cutscenes, perhaps the gameplay would be worth suffering through just to see them.

Also, let's not forget about how Frank Klepacki utterly stomps his Japanese counterparts (save for perhaps Keiki Kobayashi) into the ground when it comes to in-game music.

Tiberium Wars had quite decent gameplay, imo. Red Alert 3 was just appalling though, I uninstalled it after playing 3 missions.
Tiberian Sun is my favourite. The atmosphere of the game was great aswell as the gameplay. Red Alert 2 is a close second favourite.
Dune 2000 is worth mentioning as it was also made by Westwood Studios; although not counted as part of the C&C series, it's still a great game.

Red Alert 2 was my favorite. God, I used to play LAN with my family a lot. Good times. Haven't played any of the newer ones, though.

I liked the original C&C but it lacked multiplayer and skirmish mode... couldve been so AMAZING

Red Alert. Mainly because the units are normal current day things: tanks, ships, planes; infantry not clad in armoured suits. Nothing fantastically futuristic or strange (save for the Soviet turrets).
I've never liked the music in any C&C game I've played though.

The fact that where is more than one woman in RA3 is testament to EA's franchise whoring.

Well, my best is GDI despite my name being NOD3

Nod3, you should maybe acquaint yourself with the rules of the forum. You can't revive threads that are over a month old. This thread is nearly a year old.
