Is it only me that had the C&C Generals Nuke Cannon tagline going off in their heads saying BRIGHTER THAN THE SUN in a deliberate voice and a heavy Chinese accent?
IMO it’s great but it is a departure from earlier titles in more than just going to 3D, and the sides are a 90s caricature of the US/China/Middle-Eastern people, so it’s something that you definitely couldn’t make today.
Like the “terrorist” side gets suicide bombers and a unit called “angry mob” to which Chinese flamethrowers or American snipers are a good counter, while China gets two soldiers for the price of one and propaganda loudspeakers everywhere that makes units fight harder.
The story is barely there as well, which was a strong point of the RA2 and Tiberium universes.
Yeah but good luck getting it working reliably on modern Windows. Runs great on Linux. It’s probably the last truly great C&C game, if you ask me. C&C 3 was alright too I guess…

Hey, is that game any good? I only every did Tiberian Sun and RA2, is it worth getting into?
