Command And Conquer Renegade Work Review
Upon release, Command & Conquer: Renegade received mixed reviews and modest sales. EA, which had recently acquired Westwood, shelved any sequels. For years, it was remembered as the "failed experiment."

Havoc is a memorable hero, and facing off against iconic units like the stealthy Nod Buggy or the terrifying Flame Tank in first-person is a joy.
