I remember being stoked when I found a Command and Conquer Red Alart cd at a garage sale. Shit was like 4-5 years old and it was the first game my older sister and I bonded over. Very fond memories.
First game I bought for my Saturn (that I won). I played the living shit out of the game. I still have some of the audio files from the discs. They could be played like a regular CD in a CD player. You just had to skip the first track because it was the data for the game.
Mine was Populous on playstation and i loved it soo much back in the day

C&C, AoE and Blizzard's strategy games, the 90's were it.
BioWare managed to make impeccable story driven RPGs, not to mention fallout 1 and 2.
Adventure games were still a thing. The 90's certainly held up for games. They may be a bit clunky and low res, but with a bit of polish just about all of those games hold up.
As much at I loved the C&C/Red Alert games, unless Westwood planned on creating an RTS that out performed Starcraft or got into the MOBA space and won against DOTA and League; there's not a lot that they could have done especially with such a huge population of gamer's moving out of RTS and into MOBA's.
