description: CNCDEN Just a friendly Lion reminder about tomorrow and a specific link that Aaron Kaufman alerted us to: Aaron: We have something BIG planned, so make sure to check HERE on November 3rd! (PS: link will be redirected on that day) I have no idea as to the specific time when the link will be redirected. I have to work on Thursday...won't be back in till sometime in the afternoon. So if something really important comes up, help out the Lion and post it in the comments section so I'll know when I get in. Interesting. Tomorrow = a happy day then. I will get to see what this commotion is all about, and my Geforce 6800 will arrive through mail.

description: Renardin6 wrote on Fri, 04 November 2005 13:20 In other words, a second decade will come. Or they shouldn't call that a 'first'... It's probably a hint for a new C&C yes. It seems this is a pack will be containing all the C&C's ever made, working on XP and maybe a few extra's (that's what some online stores and a news post on cncden seems to say). I may buy it 16 feb 2006 (release date) since I never got the Red Alert expansions and lost my TD Nod disk Edit: http://biz.yahoo.com/bw/051104/20051104005269.html?.v=1 Could be intresting, not as much as a new C&C though.

description: There already is a box, containing TD RA TS RA2 and Renegade. I doubt a version with Generals will be the new thing. Anyways I would be also quite suprised if they announced a new game. To be honest, I doubt this will be anything big. EA has the habit of making things sound better than they are. Hey people we decided to finally kill WOL. But don't worry, we will make it so that you can play on a 3rd party's alternative server. Isn't that a great thing to do to celebrate 10 years of C&C. Update: It is a compilation disk. Quote: EDWOOD CITY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 4, 2005 Experience the award-winning Command & Conquer(TM) (C&C) series like never before! Electronic Arts (NASDAQ:ERTS - News) today announced, Command & Conquer(TM) The First Decade, one of the largest PC franchise compilations to date. Scheduled for release in February 2006, the title celebrates the 10th anniversary of this innovative franchise. This special collector's edition will include a dozen of your favorite C&C games spanning over the last ten years plus a bonus DVD of commemorative video features.

description: the only worthy things in this Decade are that all games are compatible with that crappy Windows XP and that it is a normal full copy of the game with all movies and soundtracks... nothing else Empire at War releases at the same time as the Decade (a nice blow to the Petroglyph from EA). so the fans will go mad in choosing. as for me, I don't know what to do. CNC Collection drained all my funds, and i cannot afford so much money for this thing once more. and, as you understood, i need only normal full C&C Gold and RA1 with their addons... some kind of dilemma here - i need a thing but cannot get it
