Command and Conquer - Special Gold Edition
 

I'm not sure if C&C is abandonware, but if it is, i think adding it to the site would be an excellent idea.It's one of the greatest games ever made and i think many people feel the same.

Also please vote in the poll.I would like to see your impression of the game.

look at my avatar and guess

I know red alert isn't abandonware
I don't know about C&C
there probably is some tiny compnay that still sells it somewhere in the northern most tip of Siberia in a town populated by a whalesheppard, Stalin's Nice Twin and a woman called Bagnol

hehehe If you need a upload I can give cnc gold to yea. But C&C Gold is win95. And its still being sold in packs and bundles like the CNC collection. How about the original dos version. That defenetly is abandon ware.

man I would love to play CnC again
does it contain the movies
because really CnC isn't anything without those cheesy movies... and Kane

What I love about cnc is it goes way back to the bible!

I got the Original CD :lol:

But i can't make them go under XP :( not even with the XP-patch...

if it cnc gold install the patch then right-click click properties. Click compatability tab. The choos win95 and change the reselution box. Hope it works :)

.....
as i said... i can't make it work under XP..
and it's not the Gold vers.
It's the old good C&C (black cd's)

the dos version? like the ORIGINAL?? The FIRST ONE EVER to come out?

Maybe you could upload it titan :wink:

PRETTY please with sugar on top?

anyway you could download dosbox and try running the old one in there
I'm pretty sure it will work

Yes

no
If i can't run it in XP, i don't ;)
and no.... it's seriously 2 full CD's... it's more then the total space on the server..
Why don't you guys just BUY it like the rest of us? Doesn't the developers deserve some cash for theire hard work on this awsom title(s)?

I do like this... if there is a demo, i play it... if not, i try to download a full vers...
If i like it, i buy it, else i just delete it... may not be 100% legal, but that is what i think is fair deal...

:lol: LOL You think that if i could buy this game i would have posted a new topic with this subject???In Romania we don't have stores that sell games that old.

Neither do we here in sweden.. but you can still ORDER it..

hmmm , maybe i could if i were OLDER!!!

yes if only I had a credit card :roll:
my; dad is into tank games (still plays Panzer Elite if any of you heard of it) and HATES and I mean HATES strategy games like C&C
he hates 'em with a passion
so since C&C is NOT sold in Belgium, germany or the netherlands (believe me I've searched) and I can't order it from the web this is my last hope

Why would you want to play C&C anyway? The game was not that good. I think Dune is on here somewhere and if it's not it sure is somewhere else. Try playing that. It's better.

As gameplay the two games are incomparable(C&C is much better i think).Also graphics are much more better in the second game.Sound is better... so i really don't see your point Picard.Dune II is a classic , an exceptional game for it's time;but it's incomparable with C&C.

blasphemy!

Heh, panzer general, now there's another great game :!: .This game would also make a nice addition to abandonia's data base.Too bad it's kinda large... :(

C&C is the BEST strat game! PEACE THROUGH POWER!!!!

the technology of peace!

You are of course intiteled to your own opinions about what you like but to say Dune2 and C&C are incomparable is untrue. The are virually identical in many respects. C&C has better graphics yes and better sound maybe even more options but then it was released years after Dune2. The reason I said C&C was a bad game was partly just to tick people off which needs to be done every once in awhile. The other reason was that although in many respects C&C is better then Dune2, Dune2 had one quality that is, for me, an overriding factor to for considdering a game good. Dune2 kept me interrested. I played C&C and even enjoyed it for a time but once I got to mid game I had seen all the levels already and the new units I got could not entice me to keep playing. Dune2 however I played out until the bitter end more then once. It's no doubt a matter of taste but for me Dune2 will always be better then C&C. I did like C&C Red Alert however, funny thing that.

You sure did :evil:
Not true.I respect your oppinion about C&C, but as you said above you were only trying to annoy me.Not nice... :x
Your oppinion, and i respect it, but don't try to change mine...

This is untrue. I said it was one of the reasons not THE reason. And annoying people by questioning their beliefs keeps people from becomming complacent.

Red Alert has always been seen as the game that finally got everything right
Dune 2 wasn't that much fun
C&C didn't have strange missions like in Red Alert.
the great thing about Red Alert were the missions
I remember in one mission you had one spy and you had to get through an entire enemy base filled with gods without being noticed

hey picard i hope you ain't mad or something , cus this is only a conversation about games... no offense right? :wink:

I'm not offended at all. Only a little tired. I need a vacation.

huh ... :roll: ... me too

Truely one of the greatest games made in it's time :Brain:
It really showed WarCraft, what realtime strategy gamming is all about... :ok:

I have several cd's with C&C + addon's and such. But I don't have any trouple
running the game in XP pro :w00t:
I don't have any servie packs installed, that could be the reason. But if not, then i don't know.

To Stroggy: I agree that RA has some special mission with Tanja and such,
but they where in C&C to. In fact I remember that in the demo of C&C there's three missions.
1. Landfall on beach, build base and barracks. :sniper:
2. Special mission with a man like Tanja, think he's named Jack. Blow up anti-air
3. Establish Base and attack enemy base which got the ion-tower. :Titan:

Seems that my memory is okey, after all.. hehe :angel:

Uhm, this kind of necromancy is generally frowned uppon, Almigo.
You should really avoid reviving long-dead threads.

But at least you're right. Who can forget the mission where you control that one lone commando who has to destroy an unknown building to cripple the NOD base.

Hmm, no offence, but did you look at the dates, Almigo? The last post in this thread before you resurrected it was more than one and a half years ago...:whistle:

Edit: Never mind. Doubler got there first.:)

closed

It's still sold..so rejected.

Released as Freeware...

But is the Covert Operations expansion abandonware? If it is, I can provide an ISO. :)
