Amazon.com Product Description
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.


Generals is more geared for the current gamer, with a contemporary setting and modern graphics. View larger.


Tiberian Sun updates the classic Command and Conquer game, continuing the storyline with improved gameplay and graphics. 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 fate 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 fate 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.

5 out of 5 stars Thanks C&C for destroying my sleep schedule and ability to tell time   November 14, 2008
If you ever played Command and Conquer before, you understand what I mean, if you haven't, you will once you purchase this compilation pack.

In a word, this set is completely "AWESOME"!!!

I've only got through two of the twelve games, and I can't stop thinking about it. Seriously, this must be what taking crack is like. It's simple, but it's complex, it's basic rushing forward, or it's a long strategy to get to the goal.

I love these games. This is the best value I've ever seen on Amazon.



4 out of 5 stars Great Game, or Games should I say   November 10, 2008
One of the best thing about this product is the price. After researching the cost of the games in this package, I figured out this was a steal of a deal. The last game in this series alone cost as much as this package of games. If you like strategy PC games this is the best there is. Most of these games are fun and addicting to play. Some of the old games in this series are not that great...but they were ten years ago for sure...but probably would not impress any of us anymore though. Great buy and good fun! It is must buy for PC gamers.


5 out of 5 stars Spankin' Sweet Yo!!   November 9, 2008
I was raised on these games and they're all the exactly the same as I remember them. Plus, you get all the expansion packs and it's cheap. The Renegade game is lame but you can just not play that one. Good price for the value!


5 out of 5 stars C&C Rocks!   October 28, 2008
I've been a fan of the C&C franchise from day 1, and it was great to relive the entire series. My biggest concern was that the graphics from the '94-'95 titles would make the games obselete, but the amazingly fun gameplay more than makes up for that. Personally, I enjoyed the nostalgia of playing with the retro graphics.


5 out of 5 stars Command & Conquer   September 29, 2008
Even that I was buyng a used game it came in a sealed box with all the bells and whistles. Also the disc was just like new.
