  • cheaper than steam

    • Doesn't the steam collection have renegade and all the newer games as well?

        This is only the remastered version from 2020. The steam collection is the original 90s/00s releases.

    Oh wow, I remember working at the Canberra Myer store (which was still called Grace Bros back then) when the C&C:RA game was released. We got 20 copies and sold them all on the first day, that’s how anticipated the game was. IIRC, the RRP was something like $129 but we had $99 on the sticker.

      I was in the usa visiting family at the time RA was released. I told mum I only want this game and nothing else. It was $100 USD. Best value I ever got out of a game.

    • Yuri says everyone should pay the same price

    • 20 copies of a new PC release, lol. What kind of Luddite manager was running that store? Even for 1996 that sounds pretty dismal; I remember seeing walls and walls of triple-A games back in the 90s when they were just released.

        No space. PC box games were the size of cereal boxes.

        • I think it's more due to Canberra being even more insignificant back then than it is now. I don't think adequate floorspace was such an issue in a 1990s department store.

          Even in Perth, the gaming stores of the 1990s/2000s had huge floorspaces where they could dedicate an entire row or two of shelving to just one new release on launch day with hundreds of copies on the floor and in storage in the backrooms.

          I distinctly remember when Red Alert 2 launched in 2000, some of the gaming chains like Games 'R' Us filled pretty much their entire PC gaming section with boxes of RA2 and nothing else, there would have easily been +100 boxes on the floor in some of those stores.

    Paid $22 for it on Steam not long after the initial release. Cracking remaster!

    I have more fond memories playing the Playstation version of Red Alert in the mid/late 90's………… barely played the game on pc (until the mid 2000's when I had access to the games).

  • Thanks op

    Just wish they had also done Dune 2000 in these remaster collections!

      Unfortunately the IP owners aren't interested in playing ball, GOG tried to get the games on their store but the reply they got back was something along the line of "what's old should stay old".

      you reckon the movie was based on the game?

    Unable to comply, building in progress

  • Am presently in Japan so when I clicked on this deal for EA it has come up as costing 665yen (Inc tax)…

    I've bought it and will see what happens about accessing it when back in Oz..

    • 肯定の
