There’s no better RTS game than Command and Conquer, and it’s literally $2 now

The mechanics aren’t the most complex. That particular plaudit belongs to Civilization 6, or maybe Stellaris. Similarly, the strategies you have to use and the tactics of your enemies aren’t the most intelligent or elaborate. But stylistically, aesthetically, and in terms of sheer influence - not to mention the fact they’re an absolute blast to play - the original two Command and Conquer games, Red Alert and Tiberian Dawn - are the greatest in the strategy genre ever. And now, via the staggeringly good Remastered Collection, you can get them both for less than $2. Happy Holidays.
