$50 for one package of all the C&C games. And supposedly they've all been updated to work properly on windows 7.

I'd consider it if I wasn't so annoyed by EA's DRM crap that's currently preventing me from playing tiberian twilight.

Wow. I already own almost all these games from some time or other. Wonder if it's worth getting this version?

I know some of the older versions (the better ones IMO) have trouble running on XP or higher. Might be fun to play them again.

I know, I was referring to the original games and how this package might be fun because they're updated.

Ohhh I see what you mean. Command & Conquer is really difficult for me, for some reason. I can never make it that far into the campaigns, and they don't have any built-in cheats that I'm aware of. Doh!

There's a trick in red alert to get your grenadiers to throw at any distance.

I got the package, and they did NOT update Tiberium Dawn and Red Alert 1... Still getting some 8bit (w00t) problems with the colors..

I can imagine red alert 1 and tiberium dawn <never heard of that O_o i presume its pre-tiberium sun?> can be quite hard to port
