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.
Command & Conquer the First Decade collects the entire Command
and Conquer library on one disc.
Red Alert offers mixes vintage World War 2 vehicles with some
distinctly modern touches. View larger

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 e 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 e 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.
Engage in heated battles over nameless fields and familiar
territory alike in your struggle to save the world. View larger

.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.
