.Kompressor Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 February 23, 2010 5:00 AM PSTGet 3 classic Command & Conquer games for free What's better than a freebie? A freebie that's actually decent. Case in point: Electronic Arts is giving away three awesome real-time strategy games--one of which all but defined the genre. For a total cost of zero dollars, you can download Command & Conquer: Tiberian Dawn, Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun, and Command & Conquer: Red Alert. Yes, they're old, but so is this giveaway--as I've just learned from CNET's John P. Falcone, who wrote about these and other free PC games more than two years ago. There are no strings attached; EA has simply allowed the three games to become freeware. However, installing them can be a major pain. I was able to get Red Alert running on a Windows Vista-equipped laptop, but only by following the installation instructions to the letter. http://news.cnet.com/8301-13845_3-10457726-58.html?tag=nl.e796 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scokem Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 Whilst most C&C fans will probably already be aware of this (and most likely already own the games anyway) it's good to see this happen. Any newcomers to the C&C scene can go back and relive the classics now and they'll hopefully understand why we (series veterans) get so excited about it :p Peace through power!

Michael1406 Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 Never played the C&C games way back when. Looks like this is my opportunity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
