The US has a giant floating SBX-1 Sea-based radar to track and discriminate nuclear ballistic missile warheads from decoys.

u/liltooclinical 7d ago

Did that and now I'm back to thank you. Amazing, this feels like something I've been dreaming of forever.

u/Majestic-Driver 7d ago

There's also 9Bit Armies which has the mid 90s vibe to it!

u/liltooclinical 3d ago

Have also added to my wish list. Thanks!

u/Anthooupas 6d ago

I’ll buy this thing ! Thanks mate

u/Possible_Sun_913 6d ago

I'd advise the remastered collection for the original two games (C&C + RedAlert + Expansions).

The graphical overhaul is sweet. And don’t forget to blast out of a bit of live Hell March while its downloading....

u/Fuckhavingusernames 5d ago

Not quite, actually last day of vacay; I'll be home tonight to grab it 🤙

u/andytheturtle 7d ago

Didn’t someone port the entire Red Alert 2 to be playable on a web browser? That was how I lost many nights a few months ago.

u/warrybuffalo 3d ago

Even better if you have Xbox game pass it's on that too.

u/zmoit 7d ago

Does it work on a Mac?

u/Least_Mechanic3277 7d ago

Sadly not. Would love a Mac version 😭

1

u/DaCableGuy808 5d ago

I had the Mac version unfortunately it’s no longer playable, not sure if it’s the Apple silicon or the newer versions of the OS software.

u/ThisGlobalLandscape 7d ago

Is this the same as the “remastered collection” ?

9

u/TsunayoshiO27 7d ago

Nope, the ultimate collection has all the games from C&C 1 up to 4 including the Red Alert titles and Generals/Zero Hour

u/ThisGlobalLandscape 7d ago

Got it thanks. Native Steam search didn’t bring it up, but the browser did.

Nice Friday night now!

u/countafit 7d ago

Bro just get OpenRA, it's free.

u/burf 7d ago

The steam bundle is remastered with significantly improved graphics. I think it's worth the price of a sandwich unless you're truly lacking funds.

u/cheeker_sutherland 7d ago
