The original RA came out in 1995, RA2 was released in 2000.

The first Red Alert is another older game of which I have fond memories. Although technically I wasn't a kid anymore by the time I started playing it (I'd turned 18 several months beforehand), it was one of the first titles I played that really got me into computer games.

The childhood favourites would be mainly from my pre-PC time:

- The Bard's Tale
- Dungeonkeeper
- Garrison
- Marble Madness
- Eye of the Beholder
- Archon 1+2
- Speedball

I am pretty sure that I forgot some games...

It must have been Red Alert. All I remember that the campaign was just horrendously hard. One allied mission come to mind where you have a time limit to take out a heavily fortified Soviet base that literally covered 3/4 of the map. Never got past that mission....

Ugh. I couldn't stand the last Soviet mission where you have to attack & destroy Allied HQ. I don't think I ever did find out the full extent of that bloody minefield....

Makes me so happy to still have the original Red Alert sitting behind me. As well as GTA 1&2 and Theme Hospital. If only they would work on Vista...
