Really good value.

Many people seem to prefer the polished Tiberian Sun, but Red Alert 2 really sticks out in my mind. It is one of most enjoyable games I've ever played. It is sillier than most, but very very well done, and the lighter atmosphere is really refreshing. I'm sorry I skipped this game when it first came out, and I'm glad I had the opportunity to play it while it could still be found.

Renegade is fantastic. It's really fun for an original Command and Conquer fan to be able to run around "in the game" in first person and actually fight into and destroy "The Hand of Nod." Renegade isn't something a person will replay a thousand times, but it is something I'd recommend in a minute to every C&C fan.

Technical note: I couldn't get everything to play properly under Windows XP SP2 either, not out of the box. And I too fixed the problem by setting compatibility mode as described by T. Tschirgi in a previous comment. I haven't attempted any multiplayer functionality.

Perfect Collection NO PROBLEMS INSTALLING

anyone who said thier having problems installing must just not know what thier doing at all, its the easiest thing on earth.

This collection is perfect. it has 2 of the greatest war stragety games and thier epansions plus an alright fsp. these games will give you hours and hours of enjoyment, ive been playing them since they came out and still am not bored with them!

Command & Conquer

Not only are you likely to get a jewel case without the ID# necessary to install the game and have to send proof you bought it snail mail and wait for the #, the game figures are tiny and the instructions for play poor. It is actually a poor man's version of Earthsiege or Ground Control without the ease of getting into the game.

Tricky Setup for Win XP, Great Entertainment

It's hard to beat getting 5 game disks for under $20. It makes a person think there must be a catch, and in this case, there is:
You need to do some extra steps to get it to run in Windows XP. I assume its fine on Win 95 or Win 98, but I'm no longer using those systems.

Comma To make it run on Windows XP, you have to tell Win XP to run it in Windows 98 Compatibility mode. This includes the installation programs on the disks;

This is what we did:
Click Start - Run - Browse to bring up the menu of the installation disk.
For each program icon on the disk;
Right Click the icon, select Properties - Compatibility;
click the compatibility box, and choose Windows 98.
Apply and close. Then go on to the next program and do the same thing, until you have done every executable program on the disk.
After that, it installs and runs just great!


It only took an hour or so to load each game in the set, but we've played them for many hours more. Because the game allows you to set the  more
