                  Dig Dug is an interesting thought (great Commadore64 oldie as well), though not where that quote game from.

                  It’s from the greatest game ever made: Lords of the Realm II

      I saw some people in the thread mention they’re only aware of Red Alert due to the memes. Which is a tragedy, because Hell March kicks so much more ass than it had any right to for a random 90s video game track.

      Here it is for anyone that needs some bad assery added to their day. https://youtu.be/e3YzmjmAGoI

            Westwood is correct, i misremembered. EA didn’t take over Westwood until Tiberian Sun, which another one I enjoyed a lot. Still, EA wasn’t complete dogshit back then.

    I just finished a round of Red Alert Remastered. Fun game. I was real good at the game nearly 30 years ago. Got in the top 10 on a 1v1 ladder on some now forgotten site.

      I bought StarCraft remastered today because I had an itch for RTS. Just 3 rounds into the single player and nostalgia is making me so happy.

      Maybe I get the C&C collection next…

        Get it, but also get the free version OpenRA.

        They have taken the classic game and made it work on modern computers, they have plenty of online servers you can play on, and the controls are more modern than the original C&C games, left click to select, right click to command.

      That really took a soviet genius to not protect a whole base side and let the powerplants be overly exposed.

      Wasn’t that Command & Conquer (which later got the “Tiberian Dawn” part added to its title)?

              It’s alive enough for me. And I replay like it.

              Also, the obtrusiveness of some people wanting me to change over is having quite the opposite effect on me.

        C&C was the original, Tiberian wars and Dawn were sequels

          Dawn is the original CnC. Then came Tiberian Sun and Tiberian Wars, sadly they stopped developing the Tiberian series as in no other game came afterwards. Probably for the best.

          Then on the other hand we have Red Alert, Red Alert 2 and Red Alert 3. Kinda uninspired imho :)

  • I remember playing this on the PS1 against my friend. I had it on PC as well as Tiberian Sun but it was a PITA to try and do anything with any speed or precision using a PS1 controller lol

    This reminds me of when I’d have my devs play Artemis as a “team build exercise” and totally not as an excuse to Star Trek LARP at work.
