    Have they bothered to fix the older titles in the C&C bundle for win7+ yet?

    Last time I checked (about a year ago) everything up to Tiberian Sun was still broken in that bundle they are selling and I couldn't play it. Good stuff.

    @forcen: RA2 has worked in win7/8 last time I checked, replayed it last year through Origin didn't even need use any mods/fixes. I was referring to the older titles in their C&C bundle. It's C&C1 C&C2 RA1 which didn't work.

    Looks like the offer is on hold for now but you can snag a copy of Theme Hospital right now instead.

    Use the same link, sounds like it is very temporary.

    @tennmuerti: Ah, nice to hear that the free game is working at least. But still if you haven't checked PCgamingwiki for fixes you really should. But maybe you are way ahead of me.

    Is it easy enough to have it display in HD resolutions? Possibly by just editing a config/ini file? Not sure i could endure stretched out images like in Star Wars:Galactic Battlegrounds on GOG.

    Looking for Command & Conquer Red Alert™ 2 and Yuri’s Revenge™?

    • Wow, you guys are loving Command & Conquer Red Alert™ 2 and Yuri’s Revenge™ On the House! The demand is so high that we need some time to cool down our servers. Command & Conquer Red Alert™ 2 and Yuri’s Revenge™ will return to on the house very shortly. Thanks for being patient!

    Apparently it is only temporary, but this is the first I've checked it. I think I already got Theme Hospital free once a while ago, so hopefully C&C comes back. I've never played a C&C game.

    @rethla It was free once before I'm pretty sure, you might be thinking of that.

    I dont know WHY, but they hid the high resolution options behind a cheat code.

    Write "hires" in the main menu, then go into options and select 1280x720.
