A brand new Command & Conquer sure would be nice. None of that modern GaaS or MTX or MMO crap, just pure and simple RTS single player campaign. A good, long campaign with two or three different factions, perhaps some branching paths. More lore about Tiberium, maybe go to space, another planet. Alien races and factions. Droids, robots, mechs. Shiny new graphics, animations and effects, but the gameplay should be straight from the original series. Well, maybe with some modern quality of life things.
Also, sequels to The Secret of Monkey Island and Day of the Tentacle(which was a sequel to Maniac Mansion itself), those old school point and click adventures. Monkey Island has had many many sequels with different art styles and whatnot, but if they could somehow capture the feel and atmosphere of 1 and 2, that would be the impossible dream. 16 bit graphics should be an option at least. Oh, and Zak McKracken needs a sequel as well! Oh my.
Yes, I am old.

Command and Conquer Red Alert (the second part?) was such a cool game. My brother and I played it on PS1 a whole lot. Just against the computer, no campaign stuff. I think we enjoyed just building it all up as far as it could go. And grilling enemy soldiers with these electric defense towers. Really fun game.

You talking about the campaign makes me think I missed more than half the game. Perhaps I will check out some let's plays.

A sequel to that series sure would be nice. But weirdly I think this is the only RTS I ever played. A sequel with some modern bells and whitles might be the perfect opportunity to give this genre another try. I think I liked the soviet nuclear cold war stuff they were going for in Red Alert. Could really blend well with an alternate history angle were the USSR still exists to this day and they come up with all sorts of crazy looking communist war weapons.

Yeah, the Red Alert branch was fun as well, why not?

If you haven't played the campaigns, why not get your hands on some type of machine that can let you play them? They should be cheap or even free to play by now.
