The fuck, Graham?!

Decided to double-dip on the C&C Ultimate Collection and thought "Ya know, I own C&C4 on disc and remember nothing about it. Maybe I'll try it out again for shits and gigs."

Fuckin launcher comes up, can't see to get past it. Make a throwaway login, try to enter the game, get 'General system error'. Over and over. Lmao

Guess I won't be playing 4! It's fine, plenty of good C&C nostalgia to bask in

Genuinely surprised for the TS love in this thread, granted its been twenty years but I recall Tiberian Sun being roundly disliked when it came out

I'm a heretic in that I genuinely enjoy the Tiberium series more than the Red Alert series. Love both of them, but prefer Tiberium. I really like TS's presentation: the blasted hellscape, cyborgs/bots, moody Terminator-esque OST, and I think Anton Slavik is the best NOD henchman.

I really want them to remaster TS/RA2 next, but given that Red Alert's popularity over TS that probably won't happen :( TS needs some QoL love.

I don't think I've gotten more than like 3 or so missions deep into RA3; probably time to rectify that. I plan on replaying C&C3 when I'm done with TS, and then likely RA3. I also plan to attempt to get C&C4 to work so I can make myself angry all over again.

With RA3 I think I remember being irritated that the missions felt kinda overly long and drawn out with trigger scenes and dialogue. But as I said I haven't really played much of it and it's been awhile. The Ultimate Collection releasing reminded me how much I loved this series at one point, including Generals/ZH. This will be the 3rd or 4th time I've purchased TD/RA/TS through various collections and discs over the years. No regrets, peace through power.
