At the moment, C&C: Red Alert is totally wiping the floor with all the other C&C games.
I personally believe it was due to WS' awesome support for it. Two expansions, numerous patches, excellent gameplay and great graphics, for 1996-1998, make for a perfect combination.

Because, graphics and gameplay wise, Tiberian Sun really sucked.

In the end it doesn't matter if you are who you say you are. You will still mean nothing to me.

Yeah, I started on Tiberian Sun, went to Tiberian Dawn Gold and Sole Survivor. That's why I love Renegade so much.
I think it is pathetic how Generals is beating the entire Tiberian series. The reason Generals is getting so many votes is problably because it's graphics and it's introduction to many people who never played a C&C game.
I gve Red Alert all the credit though, that was nicely put together, great support like ACK said, but Red Alert 2 doesn't deserve to be above the Tiberian series either. Just opinions though.

How the hell is Generals beating Tiberium Sun!

Tiberian sun was too dark and gloomy in my opinion. And it was never Graphically too appealing to most people.

RA1 is the C&C RTS I play most often...followed by TD, then TS, then RA2... never, ever will I touch Generals after how craptacular the demo was.
The first C&C game I played was TD for N64...that had 3d graphics, and that didn't add anything at all to the gameplay...as soon as I got the PC-based C&C95 version, I never touched it again because of the inferior console controls.
TS did seem a bit slower in gameplay than the other games, and the music frankly sucked in comparison. However, it's still pretty fun, for a game that was as over-hyped and under-delivered as that.

Uh, I hated Tiberian Sun. The campaign was so dull it scared me away, and the infantry move SO SLOWLY...I'd definitely pick Generals over Tiberian Sun.
The again, the ingle-player missions play way too slowly. I always find my units getting picked of by RPG troops because it takes them about 6 seconds to turn their turret around. Also, pathfinding in Generals is very poor, in my opinion.
I've never played RA1, but I think i owe it to myself to play it.

Original C&C and Red Alert Retallation pack for PS1 were the best. I remember buying C&C original for the Sega Saturn. I had no clue on how to play it. All I know is that it looked and sounded AWESOME! After I learned to play it I never turned it off. I remember playing that nights upon days and whatnot. Then my bro bought Red Alert (wasnt sure if he should buy that or Warhammer, I convinced him to get Red Alert) I would play that one skirmish level where it was snow level, then on the left side there was two islands connected by a bridge, same on the right side. To travel from one to another you had to build transport to get ur tanks and guys over there. Oh man, I think I played that map over 1000 times. Easily. I would build tons of units and have huge battles. I would even pause it at night, wake up the next morning and continue my tirade! Mwahaha I still do not know what one I like more, Original or Red Alert. Both had their respective ups and their respective downs. I never really had the chance to get into Tiberium Sun. My old computer kept messing up, so it would only work once in a while. Then finally when I could get it to seem stable, like ACK said, it was far to slow. Plus, all of those super high tech units got annoying quickly. Generals, well generals wouldve been sick as heck, but the lack of units was horrific. Well, yes, they still had a good amount, but not compared to the others. Possibly if I bought the expansion pack, then I might be fulfilled in that area. I should check it out.

My C&C Related experience goes as so:
Red Alert>Red Alert:Counterstrike >Red Alert:Aftermath>Tiberian Sun>Tiberian Sun:Firestorm>Red Alert 2>Red Alert 2 uris Revenge>Renegade>Generals>Command and Conquer: GOLD
Red Alert is the best out of them all. It was fun to play as well as look at, and it had great sound. The missions were fun (and I'm even trying to beat them again), and the ballance was perfect. Red Alert was where C&C shined.
As for TS, I didn't really like it. It was ugly, boring, the music and sound was only average, and the SP sucked. Two words: Broken Promises
Red Alert 2 was fun to play, but its story disgusted me.

I don't know having two Wolverines in the first mission thinkings they build your base and sitting there trying to have them build a barracks was fun.
May Trey rest in forever bliss and happiness.
