  • meticulousmatty on 22/12/2013 - 01:01

    Is it worth getting Origin just for this game collection?

    I use Steam, and GOG so far quite happily, fwiw.

    • MakingBacon on 22/12/2013 - 01:36

      Origin is terrible and if it wasn't for the Battlefield series and the C&C series I would uninstall it.

      But I would put up with anything to reminisce about Red Alert as a child :).

      • CJL1314 on 22/12/2013 - 01:44

        Don't forget Sims! GOTY 2009 :)

        No where near as good as Steam (or GoG), but it is still a 1000 times better than uplay

      • bxpressiv on 22/12/2013 - 07:30

        I think a Origin is terrible in terms of catalogue but in terms of execution is excellent. Great servers which download fast every time, unlike Steam which is crippled by server load during sales or when a new game comes out.

    • lonepine on 22/12/2013 - 09:00

      I have it. No problems so far. Not as good as steam, but you need it for battlefield and all these other bargain games.

      I've not had a problem with Uplay (Far Cry 3 in Steam) but it does seem more clunky, and it's a pain needing to use both to play it.

      Hrmmm did a search and that deal didn't come up. Only the previous one. In my defense that is one big ass list.

      • bxpressiv on 22/12/2013 - 08:44

        I'm with you, the other ones an sub-standard post. I've already got a lot of negs for saying so though. :)

      • Captain Obvious on 22/12/2013 - 13:11

        Understandable mate, it's a huge list! Just thought I'd point out that this deal is in that list. :)

      It could be, but that other post was so long, hard to find a real bargain.

      I have no problem with people extracting the gems from such a list.

  • CVonC on 22/12/2013 - 03:58

    is CNC RA CS FPS like CNC Renegade?

    edit: NVM it's actually older than CS lol.. Renegade was the only FPS CNC to come out.. and it was the only one i played lol

    • Black Hole on 22/12/2013 - 09:09

      Any server to play renegade in co op?

    Wish they would make a new Dune, loved playing Dune + Dune 2 as a kid. what happened to Westwoods

    • Black Hole on 22/12/2013 - 09:22

      Dune 2 was the first game that I have bought over 2 decades ago. I am waiting for Dune reincarnation.

      • spiritek on 22/12/2013 - 23:38

        There was Dune 2000 and Emperor: Battle for Dune, only played Dune 2000 and it was OK, pretty much just a reskinned tiberian sun though

      Westwood got EA'ed… you can fill in the blanks. Dune 2 was awesome.

    Thanks OP.

    If I change my billing address to a US address, will it still go through?

    Only way I can buy it is if I change by billing address to a US one. added a US shipping address and still didn't let me…

    using 28 degrees card

    • muncan on 22/12/2013 - 09:26

      My 28 degrees card was accepted for a new Amazon account with a random Oregon address entered during purchase. Account has no ties to my actual address.

      Change your shipping address, not your billing address.

    • yomama on 22/12/2013 - 14:26

      If you still can't get it to work you can purchase a gift card with your credit card then pay for the game with the giftcard.

  • maybeamacy on 22/12/2013 - 09:25

    Can I play this on a mac lol?

    • jlogic on 22/12/2013 - 09:26

      Bootcamp?

    • Hessian Sack on 22/12/2013 - 09:48

      Not natively. Aside from Bootcamp as suggested, some of the older games might work ok in a Virtual Machine with VMWare or Parallels

    Doesn't have sole survivor.

    Guess that's why it's not called the complete collection

    Good price

  • BigLeviathan on 22/12/2013 - 10:17

    From the Amazon review, seems you need to be online all the Time and you won't be able to copy the installation files to be able to play it in LAN with your mates?

    • Agret on 22/12/2013 - 11:19
      +2

      You don't need to be online all the time, just tick remember password when you login to Origin and it will prompt you to login offline, works perfect every time unlike Steams spotty offline mode which is always hit and miss.

      You can make the games not require origin too, http://par.nofate.me just upload the par file from each game folder and replace with the one the site gives you and will no longer require origin to launch the games :) works for the free battlefield 1942 they have on Origin too

        Now I didn't know that thanks!!!!!

  • Black Hole on 22/12/2013 - 10:20

    Hopefully it can be played under windows 8.1

  • calcium on 22/12/2013 - 10:33

    I remember reading that EA released this game for free.

    Googled it and it says so too in Wikipedia.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Command_%26_Conquer_(1995_video_game)

    Well, the original one anyways.

    I remember downloading it as well and from memory, it was free upto the third one.

    Tiberian?

    Anyways, was info only.

    • calcium on 22/12/2013 - 10:36
      +2

      Googled a little bit more and yes, the first 3 are free.

      http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Command_%26_Conquer

      I guess $4.99 for the other 14(?) is pretty good.

      • altomic on 22/12/2013 - 11:44

        yeah, got them a whie back for free

    • jlogic on 22/12/2013 - 11:44

      From memory they were the original DOS and Win95? versions and they were in iso format as well.

    Thanks OP, I remember playing C&C way back in 1995 on my Pentium 90 with 1.08 Gb hard drive.
    I am pretty sure it was the first PC game I bought.
    Worked great for me by changing my billing address to a vacant field in Aloha, Oregon.
    Thanks also to Google maps for making it possible!

  • Black Hole on 22/12/2013 - 15:59

    Is the origin website down?

  • rockpapercannon on 23/12/2013 - 10:31

    Got it to work eventually, but I had trouble with the US credit card thing. It took me a little while to find a workaround, but this is how I did it:

    1) Bought a $5 Amazon US gift voucher (using my normal Amazon account, paying with my Aussie card in Aussie dollars) and emailed it to my own email address
    2) Clicked the gift voucher link in my email and redeemed it on my normal Amazon account
    3) Went on http://www.fakenamegenerator.com/gen-male-us-us.php and found a fake US address
    4) Added the fake US address to my Amazon account. Took me a few goes to get it to accept the address.
    5) Went to buy the game. At checkout changed my billing address to the fake US address. I couldn't change my Australian credit card number, so I kept it as it was (I figured it was billing me "$0.00" anyway with the gift voucher in place)
    6) Pushed "confirm and buy" and voila! It worked!

    • Captain Obvious on 23/12/2013 - 13:30

      What do you mean 'US credit card thing'? Your card can be Australian, the only thing that needs to be US is the billing address.

  • justcallmeboss on 23/12/2013 - 14:38

    Wow, I was nearly going to buy this for $40 on Origin last week. Luckily I didn't! Thanks OP :)
