    I was obsessed with Red Alert 2 and went out and bought CnC Generals the day it came out, came home excited to play and my cheap ass family computer couldn't run it and I never got to play it.

      Sorry to hear that, I can recommend Generals wholeheartedly. But you probably need Windows 7 to run it, unfortunately.

        @ProxyTheAwesome@hexbear.net You can install GenPatcher on Windows to give Generals a more modern experience similar to the spirit of OpenRA, but it seems people are having difficulty running Generals with GenPatcher through wine/proton on Linux. You would probably need to virtualize Windows and run the game that way. If you want to run Generals alone, Lutris should have some scripts.
