Sure the graphics are dated but the gameplay is awesome. I think Command and Conquer is one of the greatest PC game series ever.

It's not a "today only" thing... I'm downloading it right now!
I used to love this game... haven't played in a damn long time. I wonder if it'll hold up?

I've been working my way back through the series (I received the First Decade compilation last year as a gift) and I think it hold up remarkably well.
With the exception of the add on pack for Generals and Renegade I had purchased all of the others originally over the years. They've provided me an incredible amount of fun.
Renegade rocks, it's great to see the C&C worlds from a first person perspective.
