The mother of Modern RTS wargames

There was no one game that could compare to what the original C&C. Two complete strings of missions, NOD and GDI. This was practically the biblical fight of good vs. evil, pitting NOD vs. GDI. In any case, C&C and its followups have to be one of the greatest series of any RTS in gaming history. The era of "new gamers" would not understand the significance of this, since their first experience with C&C was most likely Generals (which was a good game, but did not strike at the foundation of gaming as did its grandfather, the original C&C). For those of us who remember the release, and instant genius that C&C showed in relation to the future of RTS. Anyone who claims this as "overrated" is not only wrong, but are unfortunate to not have experienced the series in first hand as a lot of us did. I agree with the others when they call it "classic".
