I have C&C Generals (+expansion) and C&C 3 Tiberium Wars.

Ill probably only ever play one of them which should it be?
Reviews seem to be very mixed.
 
Both :D :p

I enjoyed Generals (despite it's 'generic' setting). I did not enjoy Tiberium Wars as the difficulty (in SP on Normal) was stupidly hard towards the end. I never even got round to starting the NoD campaign :(
 
Both have their own merits. I find Generals the modern C&C that's most like Red Alert, so there's a plus, though C&C3 has some good things added such as nonselection on the harvester, etc...
 
Oh and Tib Wars patching focused on MP fixes and (imo) broke the SP by removing the ability to build base defences from your crane(s) :(
 
why not just install them both and see which you like if you already own them ?

they are both worth playing...generals/zerohour is the better game though
 
I'd play C&C3 as well, but raid a local shop's bargain bin for Red Alert 2, should only cost £10 and it was the last good C&C game :p

Edit: Whoo! post 200
 
Thankyou for the replys. It seems that Generals is the way to go. Ill give it a spin.

I played Red Alert 2 yonks ago, im fairly sure that was the last base building game i played. Ive just finished Ground Control 2 and felt like some base building rather than spawning type games.
 
I'd definitely say start with Generals and Zero Hour. Enjoyable campaign and you can do skirmish games for hours using the different generals on Zero Hour. Really quite enjoyable.

I'm currently on my second play through of Tiberium Wars as it was released on Steam last week. Completed the campaign for GDI, NOD and Scrin. I have now moved to the expansion Kane's Wrath and still going through the campaign - half way through. The campaign and game as a whole is enjoyable even on the second play through.

To put things simple: Play Generals and Zero Hour first and continue onto Tiberium Wars and Kane's Wrath. Both definitely worth playing.
 
I really enjoyed Generals.

BUT, I only skimirsh in games like that.

This, Not a fan of SP mode.... I always want to get stuck in with all the advanced gear :p haha. I did enjoy generals and never really got into C&C3

I do think C&C tiberium sun was the best games they made :p Although it did take bloody AGES to make
