Original Command and Conquer for FREE!!

do you think they will do this with the original red alert? i preferred that more than C&C

They should, and add a lobby room for 8 internet play. Would be a great game

i was a good modder for red alert1, and for a while ive been thinking of making a total conversion of allies+soviets Vs zerg+protoss or something like that.

Id be the red alert units.and i would win

Damn! that site brings back some memories

THanks

Anyone tried installing the directx that comes with the game? I wonder what happens, lol.

Nice find.

I have actually had the urge to play this again but as my PS has broken i can't.

Shame the downloads are stupidly slow.

 

[DB_SamX]

The download links are not working for me. Maybe their server is overloaded.

 

[topgun06]

2nd time now that one of the downloads has disconnected

C&C red alert was/is the best man, westwood ruled, i hate EA

SC may be superior but you can't beat the rush that is multiplayer RA

SC may be superior but you can't beat the rush that is multiplayer RA

It's very simple, the only strategy is in the timing of when to attack and yelling loud enough so your mates can hear your threats if they attack you when you're off stomping someone else

 

[SpaghettiOs]

Nah the trick was, you get one guy on your team to distract the other guy by swearing at him and stuff, and then you attack while his back is turned.

 

[Tute]

You just can't win with some people...

Downloading now

Don't get me wrong, i'm grateful they did it, but it's such a tiny game, would it really take that much effort to make a standalone one that you install onto the HDD?

Or do EA think we all still run 100MB HDDs?
