At the time I had only an old 486 with a 500MB disk under DOS, and I played this game quite extensively.
I even remember cutting the sound to gain a few FPS, which enabled me to go from "unplayable" to "barely usable" ^^.
- KindOne 6y agoRed Alert was released on two CD's, Allied and Soviet, mostly because they each had the video clips for the campaign you were playing. Same applies for Tiberian Sun. GDI and NOD CD's. I have them all via the "The Command & Conquer Collection" released back in 2003.

- gmueckl 6y agoI have an edition of Red Alert somewhere that includes the expansions as well, which adds up to 4 CDs. It sounds big, but it's not unheard of in this era. Riven was released on 5 CDs and The 7th Guest on 7 CDs, if I remember correctly.
