Forgive my ignorance is this PC only? I'd love to try out the original games again, fond memories of sleepovers as a kid playing Red Alert and Retaliation until the early hours on PS1! Only have an Xbox currently though.

PC only. No mention of if it's coming to a conole, but I don't see why they couldnt do it, the game was ported to consoles many times.

I'm playing it, it's dislodged SnowRunner for now. Already a bit bored of C&C, might skip to Red Alert as I think that's what I spent most time on back in the day.

Ah the joys of loading network drivers from floppies so a handful of us could lug a load of desktops round somebodies house and play on the dining room table. I did like the upgrade intro when it nearly asked for the Soundcard type and the IRQ number :-)

I'll probably buy it when it goes down to a couple of quid.

Looks like a lazy cash grab compared to AOE2 DE.

Doesn't get much more nostalgic than this for me.

Is Red Alert 2 in there? That's the best one.

I got it. My fave game when I got my first decent 486 pc back in 95. Put so many hours into that series.

Enjoying the cleaned up FMV stuff and the redone soundtrack.

Widescreen support is a bit off as actual gameplay is locked at 16:9 but rest of fane is full ultrawide.

Laughing at reviews on steam moaning about terrible gameplay mechanics and the sequals were much better. Well, yeah. But its a nostalgia bomb and a bit of effort has been put into it and was a good early birthday treat to myself.

Only on mission 3 of GDI so far

Yes with the link cable.

I did this too. Fantastic. One of you goes a bit quiet or stops talking and you know they’re amassing all the troops for an attack or they try to distract you when some drill appears in your base and enemy troops jump it heading towards your power stations which about to go offline leaving lots of your towers not working. hehe

Also F1 was a good game to play like this.

Downloaded it the other day. Have become slightly addicted, and have amassed about 60 games on the official 1v1 ladder this weekend lol.

Great fun.

Have they fixed the AI so it no longer sees a single row of sandbags as an infinitely high, not-shoot-through-able, impassable wall? hehe

Used to love C&C LAN parties at mates houses. Red Alert 2 and Generals were the best for me.

Love this to come out on Xbox at some point.

Isn't it Windows only, not just PC? I'd love to get, would happily pay. But no longer have any Windows machines, only Mac, Linux or Chrome OS.

They've released the source code, so probably just a matter of time.
