Top is the Sega Mega Drive boxart for Dune II: The Battle for Arrakis

Bottom is a PC screencap of Dune II, sometimes called Dune II: The Building of a Dynasty.

There was little difference between the PC and Sega port. And it was awesome.

    Dusted off the CD and played some Dune 2000 at a LAN Party earlier this year… such a great game. Dune 2000 was very similar to Dune 2, but with multiplayer.

    I’ve played Dune 2000, it was pretty much updated with all the stuff they learned from C&C and Red Alert, right?

    I didn’t get to enjoy Dune 2 during its initial release, but I played the shit out of it when I figured out what an emulator was.

    Also, it should be mentioned that this RTS played just fine on a console. Just fine.

    Am I right in thinking this was the first RTS?

    I played it a lot with some friends around 95 or so, on an, already then, ancient 286. Great game, though I am happy that the controls having changed in newer RTSs. Being able to only select one unit at a time does set some limits 🙂

    It was indeed the first straight up RTS. There some precursors that had some similar features, but this was the first true RTS.

    The Sega Genesis “Herzog Zwei” (1989)was a concept start, but like RSIxidor said, Dune II was the first true one.
