Where can I get these from? Do stores still sell them?

I think these were much better than todays games, too complicated now days.

Command & Conquer: Res Alert was THE game to have 10 years ago

try looking on abandonware sites.

Probably not too helpful for games "that" recent, but good for things like SWOS etc..

I managed to download theme hospital from BT, took a while to get a working one though, i got bored after every level and have to have a break, it's a bit repetative, but still a quality game, was also trying to find the original Theme Park, and Z (that was a quality game)

i preferred the original command and conquer myself. GDI and Brotherhood of Nod

Red Alert was good with the higher res though.
