I got the same read from the article. You are also wrong, it's supposed to be client based, not browser based. I would have liked browser based since I could play it on whatever I liked, but it looks to be that you'd have to download their software.

There isn't going to be any news for a while on Generals 2 though, probably until Christmas or early 2013. Reason being is that the devs don't want to raise hype or cause confusion by releasing early alpha info or footage (other than the short trailer they released early this year).

Command & Conquer Ultimate Collection has all 17 games in the series. The most important part? It's native to Win Vista and Win7, so you don't have the idiotic technical issues from the previous collection.

It also grants you access to the Generals 2 beta.

Just noticed Command And Conquer Renegade is one of them. :p

Since it's Origin, maybe they'll sell Renegade alone for $5. :p

Oh that's right, this is gonna be on Origin.

Well, the decision whether or not to buy a bundle that I already own 75% of just got a whole lot easier.

Steam lets you burn the games to disc, just so you know.

It includes the other download only game, Uprising! Superb!

Wonder if this will work on laptops though, since the series doesn't like them.

I also note that Sole Survivor still isn't there, so they really are considering it Canon Discontinuity.

If your laptop runs Vista or Win7, it will.

Win 7 64 bit (which means I can't currently run Tiberian Twilight at all, the game loads but I can't actually see the screen).

Managed to work around Tiberian Sun and RA 2 by setting up a fake second screen and running it on that (I'm not techie enough to understand how that actually solved the problem). The others seem to work okay, though Generals has a lot of slowdown.

I guess it's a good collection for those who have never played the older games and are interested in owning the entire collection, but I already own 11 of those games, with the others not having my interest, period. So I'll skip, ESPECIALLY since the damn thing relies on Origin.

I "have" the older games. but from the first decade pack so they didnt run on vist very well, and now that I've got windows 7, it's probably worse.
