Easier?
Perhaps.
But a helluva lot more fun, particularly multiplayer?
Hell yes.

C&C Gen + expansion, all the Medal of Honor games which really set the standard for WW2 FPS' (and then CoD came along...), The Sims (50/50 on opinion, but the idea was incredibly original and innovative - which blows whatever moron's opinion it was saying that they don't have original ideas ever), Nascar, Tiger Wood's Golf (it's great for pishing around on with mates), NHL series...
So yeah. Not really loads more, but there is much more.

That's my point, EA took charge of Generals and made it pish easy and destroyed a lot of what Westwood had achieved. It was enjoyable but not a patch on Red Alert 2 or any of the others in the series.
Learn from this mistake EA; and NEVER copy another Rareware classic AGAIN
If you're dissapointed by the fact that it's now been confirmed to be crap, you're an idiot. Crawl away and die.
