Command & Conquer was a revolutionary game that launched the success of one of the most recognized franchises in the history of the gaming industry. Not only was it revolutionary, it was so good that it is credited for defining the RTS genre. The influence, the epic story, and the addictive and challenging gameplay all comes together to make this one of the greatest games ever made.

The story involves the two fictional factions; Global Defense Initiative and The Brotherhood of Nod who are at war in a Tiberium-infested world. Without getting too much into the events of the game, Tiberium is a very valuable yet very hazardous alien material that both GDI and Nod are fighting over. Upon the completion of a mission, you are rewarded with a brilliant Full Motion Video that the series is known for.

Here in 2008, Command & Conquer doesn't stand up so well. The game is simply old now, however, this shouldn't turn you off if you would like return to the roots of the Tiberium Universe to discover what happened. This game can be found in Command & Conquer: The First Decade and is worth playing for fans of the series, but may not appeal to newcomers.

Even 13 years later, Command & Conquer is worthy of a perfect rating because of it's legacy and the impact it has had on the gaming industry.
