Command & Conquer - is it still the best?

[luke2177]

Hey everyone,

Being a long time fan of the C&C (Command & Conquer) series, but not having played the latest versions of the game (C&C Generals etc), I was wondering - is it still the best war/strategy game on the market?

I used to love C&C: Red Alert, and Red Alert 2 and I think the next one was Tiberian Sun - but haven't really played any since then...

So to those in the know - what's the verdict on C&C these days?

Thanks,

Luke

Overrated.

They went downhill.

The current king of war/strategy is probably Warcraft 3, which is sad, because that IS overrated. The Total War series, Kohan and W40K: Dawn of War are the best three on the market at the moment, IMO.

dumb....even in C&C's day it was war2>c&c , red alerts days it was starcraft>red alert and in generals day it was warcraft 3>generals

lets not even talk about c&c sole survivor shall we?

I have every C&C game out there. After TS everything went down hill. I still enjoy playing the games though, my second favourite video game series, along side Resident Evil.

Yeah AOE/AOK for me too C&C was fun for awhile online... me and Jod used to have huge 5 hour AOE/AOK sessions usually from around midnight 'til 5am

I have Red Alert and Tiberium sun which were both awesome games back in the day but have collected dust for a while now. I am definatley an AOE person. Great game. I played the demo for that one that came out a tiny bit ago i think it was called age of mythology and thought that was absolute crap and went off it.
