@exquizitely Total annihilation also holds up

Command & Conquer by Westwood Studios is 30 years old. It stands as one of the best RTS games ever made, being part of the early group of RTS games that paved the way for a whole genre. Dune 2 (1992), Warcraft (1994), Command & Conquer (1995), Age of Empires (1997), and StarCraft (1998) - those five are the pillars on which the entire industry was built. 90s gaming at its very finest.
