Product Description
In 1995, a young game studio named
Westwood released one of the first real-time strategy games. They had
created the genre a few years earlier, but this title took the fledgling
genre to new heights with impressive graphics, revolutionary gameplay
features and an enthralling story told through the then-young art of
full motion video. After twelve successful games spread out over ten
years, the venerable Command & Conquer franchise has become
synonymous with the real-time strategy genre it popularized, and the
entire series is now available on one disc in Command & Conquer
The First Decade.
Battle
the old-fashioned way with the original Command & Conquer,
watch an alternate World War II unfold in Command & Conquer Red
Alert or control the modern warfield in Command & Conquer
Generals--all three of Command & Conquer's worlds are open to
nostalgic gamers and modern aficionados alike.
Tiberian Dawn
Old
friends await the seasoned gamer in the original Command &
Conquer universe, as the fanatical Brotherhood of Nod battles the
Global Defense Initiative in a war over the mineral Tiberium. Whether
playing as the Brotherhood and obeying the charismatic Kane's every
command or taking control of GDI forces as they seek to save the world
from Kane's ambition, every detail of Command & Conquer is
just as you remember it. The original full motion videos tell the story
in what was once cutting-edge and is now quaint, and the gameplay is
simple as can be. Gather Tiberium to produce tanks, infantry and more to
decide the fate of the world, or try to connect to others with one of
the first online game-finding services!
Bring the original
storyline to a close in Command & Conquer Tiberian Sun, and
determine the fate of the world--or, if you want a break from the
strategy formula, take control of a GDI Commando in the recent Command
& Conquer Renegade, a first person shooting game set in the
Tiberium universe. See the world of C&C up close and personal
from Nick "Havoc" Parker's point of view as he fights a one-man war
against the forces of Nod armed with a diverse arsenal of weapons and
one-liners.
The
Red Menace
Perhaps the most popular game of the franchise, Command
& Conquer Red Alert asks the question, "What if Albert Einstein
mastered time travel, then used it to go back in time and kill Hitler?"
The answer is a world at war not with Nazi-led Germany, but the rapidly
expanding Soviet Union under Stalin's iron fist. Dip into the world of
historical fiction as the Allied forces take on the Soviet bloc in a war
fought not just by soldiers, planes and tanks, but by time travelers,
psychics and giant tesla coils. This more refined and advanced real time
strategy game features gameplay innovations that greatly influenced the
games that followed, including building queues and other convenient
options, providing a nice balance between nostalgia and playability.
A
World at War
While Command & Conquer takes place in
the future and Red Alert in the past, Command & Conquer
Generals offers its version of the present, as the United States,
China and a terrorist group known as GLA battle all over the world. The
most game-oriented of the series, Generals contains no FMV like
its predecessors, concentrating instead on pure 3D gameplay as well as
the wry humor that peppered the previous games.
In all, Command
& Conquer The First Decade contains not only the games that
defined a genre, but the history of that genre. Players can experience
the evolution of the real-time strategy game as they play each game in
sequence, and see for themselves how far the technology has come since
1995--but also find out that the old games still have some life left in
them.
