Video games were so freaking awesome in the 90s. I don't think I can compare it to today's industry because it's so different. The nostalgia for this stuff is just as high as my love for the movies back then. I miss being a kid in the 90s. Such an exciting, happy time
@@nellingwood2same bro. 87 baby here. 90s were such a great time. It's the last time it felt like we had a unique era. Everything sort of blends together after that. If I could, I'd go back and stay in 1999 forever.
Still have good memories watching my dad play the original on our Packard Bell PC in 1996 when I was little and he was determined to win one of the campaign missions with one grenadier vs an enemy tank. He ran circles and was giggling and it was hilarious. Somehow he won and I'm STILL flabbergasted to this day how he pulled it off. That and the music still is awesome to me.
Dude I used to watch my dad play it too lmao I remember he had this strategy where he’d start building a sand bag wall from his base all the way to the enemy and then surround thier entire base. The AI didn’t know to blow up the sandbags so they would just get trapped behind the wall and he’d make like 50 grenadiers and blow them up, they had no chance lol
Did that with two bazooka units against a flame tank in a Covert Ops mission. I still remember the dance back and forward I had them do within the tank's response radius, one shoots and retreats, the other moves in to do the same.
I love this comment! I honestly nearly became an engineer because of this game but at the last minute became a fire fighter. I got my yellow helmet! Sort of
GD45, standard issue. It won’t penetrate NOD militia body armour but it’s good for scaring the terrorist technicians away from their workstations when capturing and linking the structure to your commanders network system.

I've never played this C&C but after listening to the OST, this is the best track on it. 1 of the best songs in any game imo. I wish I played this as a kid.
Some songs dont even sound like music, but they perfectly represent what you're doing and feeling. This song is one of those, it encapsulates everything C&C made me feel back in the day.
I’m 15 and play these games. Classmates tell me that it looks garbage because of the old graphics and shit but they don’t know what they’re missing. Tiberian Dawn, Red Alert, Tiberian Sun, Renegade, Red Alert 2, i’ve played all of em and the expansions too. Great series
Got that right. Loved all the series up till that point, even C&C 3 and Kane's Wrath but 4 was just trash. No base building, no tiberium harvesting, symmetrical maps and shit story. Even the cutscenes were crap and Kane is my all time favourite Antagonist but even he couldn't salvage them.
So true. It's the goat. And that's saying something since there are a lot of sick jams across this franchise. Shame it had to get effed up beyond belief thanks to extra activision. Ehem I mean EA lol.
Fackt wry Kane was alive doing WW2= red alert1 and up the end of command and conquer is that he are the brother of Abel in the bibel damn to leve forever. If i remember it right. I think they confirm it
Driving home from work and strangely this track just burst into my head and I had to look it up. I loved it back in the day and love it even more now. Played it through and it brought back so many memories. Fantastic wonderful game with a fantastic wonderful soundtrack.
+tony montana haha especially on the 2nd to last GDI mission. Every 15 minutes or so a Chinook full of engineers would land behind your base to fuck you up. I learned quickly to put an advanced guard tower there to take it out before it ever lands.
+mintydog06 It was actually on the 3rd-to-last mission; I believe it was the same mission that you gained access to the ion cannon for the first time. On the 2nd-to-last mission, you had to eliminate a large convoy that was due to regroup with Nod central command. Good times, indeed.
They absolutely f****** nailed this game. Even the install sequence blew my mind. That music, nothing comes close. Except perhaps Total Annihilation...

I play SupComFA (Supreme Commander Forged Alliance for those unsure) on the FAF server. This tune is a definite go to for me lol fits so well and has a lot of nostalgia for me as C&C was the first RTS I really got into and enjoyed when I was younger.
you know when this song comes on, all your clicking, reactions and hearing "building alot becomes much faster :D and the only thing your thinking about it is, "im gonna f**k that base up haha

The reason I majored in Engineering. Where's my yellow helmet?

You need to actually participate in the construction (or capture) of a structure. They'll give you your hat. It's protocol.

This is the best song from the entire C&C franchise.
this and Hell March
hell march is good too , but this one is still tops .
Top 5 for sure, but my favorite is easily Pharotek.

C&C4 made me want to strangle someone though. As expected from EA

still an absolute banger after all these years. Bless you frank

So much better than the remastered version!
the difference in quality compared to other versions on UA-cam is impressive

_"Unit ready."_
"Yessir?"
*clicks on enemy construction yard*
"Not a problem."
*_"G.D.I. building captured"_*
Just removed, cleaned, and replaced my washing machine filter. AAAAAFIRMATIVE
Way better than the remastered in my own opinion.
It's called industrial music because when listening to this, shit gets done.
I was 8 when i played this game, was legendary,
Games then had soul.
Did you guys know that the "I'm a Mechanical Man" part is sampled from Charles Manson's song?

Theme song for every good FPS player ever, ironically.
Pretty sure a version of this song was in C&C Renegade, too!
And then Warcraft II parodied it with it’s own incredible song.
