This is by far my most memorable game especially Command and Conquer red alert. Now before I go on this works on my Windows 10 PC I downloaded on origin first and did the basic install and works fine for me without any patches. I read many reviews that it did not work and can't say I have a solution since I did not experience any of those problems but if I remember anything when I bought The First Decade edition I did administrator permission and compatibility in properties hopefully that will help some folks. Now on with the review..If you are a fan of RTS this is a instant classic. One of the first to spawn RTS genre to gaming and to this day is still great to relive (Except C$C 4 dont ever play that garbage) Now I wont go into detail of every game but more if the collection works and yes. The additional content is a nice bonus with the soundtrack Frank Klepacki giving us an amazing Hell March by this day still my favorite scores. The wallpapers are nice with some great artwork but alot of them are from the tiberium alliance thing eh but from Kanes Wrath are real nice so its a hit or miss. If anyone is concerned modding is still very much possible such as ZERO HOUR currently using the Nproject mod and had the cold war mod on it which works well and also had the Red Rising very great mods for Zero Hour and Tiberium 3 the forgotten is a great mod.Nothing from the core games were touched and there gameplay is all I really need. This is a great way to experience Command and Conquer if you want to try or wait for Petroglyph to do the remaster but I highly recommend playing the originals before the remaster. Or wait your choice is yours happy conquering!!!!EDIT: So there has been some problems with tryin to run older games with directx v12 a solution when using the origin client is delete the dbghelp.dll in the folder of the game hopes this helps more people would like to credit I found the solution on youtube and no, you dont need the third party patch or whatever and if you are curious what the dbghelp does I have been looking into it and seems like its a debug helper and thats all the info I have I looked at the microsoft docs for more info but didnt seem like something needed for this old game.
