Wait, What is a Mod?Īddons, extensions, expansions, mods, they’re all pretty much the same thing: a modification to any video game that can change anything from the smallest logistical statistic in a unit all the way up to adding entire gigabytes of fresh, new, and free content. And it’s still pretty lively even today, regardless of the latest (saddest) entries into the series. Perhaps the Command & Conquer series’ most successful (and prolific) title to date, this 2001 gem managed to find its way into almost every computer around Egypt over the years. Today’s classic pick for the mod treatment is good old Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2. Regardless of whether or not they’re into video games in the first place. Whether it was a matter of circumstance, one man’s brave attempt to download an entire game on dial-up, or just good old spontaneous entry into Egyptian existence, a neat few handful of games have permeated Egyptian society both young and old. Egypt has its own little hall of fame when it comes to video games, far removed from that of the western world.
