Commanding position

Of course I would buy the remastering of Command and Conquer. I would have to be a complete idiot not to.

From someone who grew up in the eighties, the original Command and Conquer was spoken of in terms of awe. It became one of those games that you had to own. In fact, i think I knew more people who had Command and Conquer than i knew people who had Warcraft. And of course, the only thing that could surpass Command and Conquer was it's successor Red Alert. 

Because I, at the time, was both broke and in possession of a crummy computer, I didn't play a lot of Command and Conquer. So playing it now, complete with modern resolutions, is a new experience. And it seems that it's aged remarkably well. Okay sure the intelligence of my units is woeful (even to the point that their marching right into the fire and ruining my chance of victory) but the rest of the game still holds up. And the music still rocks. 

So, how about remastering Tiberian Sun and Red Alert 2 then?
