Steam weekend deal: 75% off Command & Conquer 3/4

I like 3 and Kanes in multiplayer, it's pretty good fun. Although no one I know will face me anymore

C&C3 and RA3 are both good games, but tbh i only really played with friends against AI, never really bothered with single player, and we both suck balls at it, but was still fun. Tbh though i did really like C&C generals too, but that doesnt seem to be on the deal.

If I am up for some 'not to difficult blowing up of stuff', I take it RA3 is the one for me?

I used to love the series but my patience is not what it used to be.

just make sure you neglect all expectations of it living up to RA1

thinking of getting C&C4 for the multiplayer, im reading a lot of bad reviews about it but most of them say that the online play is good or ok, anyone bought it yet?

Judging from the reviews it sounded very similar to Dawn of War IIs multiplayer (point control basically). But then it also sounds like they made the entire game into DoWII style and ****ed it up completely.

think im just addicted to steam-sales

Never played any of the command n conquer games and was gonna buy one until I read this thread. Looks like I dodged a bullet

Just avoid the ones done by EA. They DESTROYED a beautiful series...

Yay, a Steam sale that I don't feel the need to buy

GinG · 26 Feb 2011 at 08:51

Just purchased C&C4, have all the other games so thought why not

feedtheram · 26 Feb 2011 at 11:38

According to wiki (i know not really reliable but meh) RA3 sold pretty darn well...in fact best of all C&C games

I thought it was pretty good but since playing SC2 i'm not interested anymore. Not gone near C&C4 as i heard there's no base building - no thanks, not for me

Loosecannon · 26 Feb 2011 at 12:03

C&C 5 to come yet!

Craig1981 · 26 Feb 2011 at 13:24

I cant resist a bargain it seems. I snatched up all of the ones on sale. Probably wont end up playing them for months.

No base building, no unit training, and no hit points, everything dies in just one hit.

I reckon.

GinG · 26 Feb 2011 at 16:04

Hmmm, purchased C&C4, downloaded & installed.

Now asking for a CD key....where do I get this from?!!?

Semiskimmed · 26 Feb 2011 at 16:13

right click the game in steams list>view cd key

PapaLazaru · 26 Feb 2011 at 16:16

Meh, just bought RA3.

nshire · 26 Feb 2011 at 16:18

Been playing since RA2 and totally despise C&C 4 got it for £5 from GAME back along.
SC2 I love now. I stopped getting excited about C&C after Generals.
