Command & Conquer: Alerte Rouge

The cutscenes in this game aren't anything to write home about. Unfortunately, given the limitations of technology and what could fit on a CD at the time, the film quality isn't the best. But none of that could stop the brilliant writing and performances.

The story is set in an alternative Soviet world- splicing futuristic war with history. It's amazingly done and quite gritty AND witty at the same time. In a way, this kind of storytelling was pioneering for its time as we are seeing more and more of this kind of narrative enter our screens.

Would recommend finding the cutscenes somewhere and watching, even if you aren't a gamer.

a great game that starts out with albert einstien going back in time and eliminating adolf hitler from becoming a threat. however without hitler keeping the soviet union in check, stalin goes about trying to take over the continent.as either allies or soviets you either defend against soviet invaders or as soviets, try to invade and take over. a great film that has the characters talking directly to you. a cool feature that command and conquer doesn't do. the graphics are cool, and the weapons are great. a masterpiece by westwood.

Red Alert was not just an incredible continuation to a great game but the underlying concept, of the Soviet Union under Stalin fighting against the European Forces was an important revolution in gaming history. The cinematics are of higher resolution and even better than what you saw in the previous game. While several units such as the Mammoth Tank made a reappearance, there are also plenty of new units including full compliments of maritime and air elements. The level design is even better than before. The best part of this game is however, the difficulty. Even under normal difficulty, it is very challenging.

The movie sequences in Red Alert are great! You can't tell the backgrounds are computer generated and it looks photo realistic. The only thing I don't like is how the actors talk to the camera. Tiberian Sun will be better because you will actually be a character on the screen! Joseph Kucan is awesome!

This game is the prequel to the acclaimed Real Time Strategy game of 1995, Command & Conquer: Tiberium Dawn, it details the forming of the GDI and NOD forces and an alternate reality in which Hitler never rose to power, a more sinister force emerged, Stalin, and now he is marching across Europe.

I love the series and if we are talking about the movie sequnces, then it's great, the acting is spectacular and all fits in well in the story, even though it won't mean nothing to you if you are not playing.

Joseph Kucan is a great actor and I hope he won't turn to the big screen because there are Places to go, Buildings to raze.
