Once upon a time, there was a wildly popular real-time strategy game that helped create the genre as we know it. Westwood's Dune 2 created the modern real-time strategy game, and almost all of the features introduced in it have been used widely in other real-time strategy games since. While it is a great game, it wasn't until Westwood's second game in the genre that real-time strategy as both a single-player experience and as a multiplayer phenomenon became apparent. Command and Conquer (sometimes referred to as Command & Conquer: Tiberian Dawn to separate it from the other games) has one of the most lasting effects on the genre, with only Blizzard's games being this influential to real-time strategy on this sort of scale. There's a reason that Command and Conquer has recieved a long-running franchise with fantastic games.
