Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2

Completely over the top strategy game. Full of very improbable units such as giant squid, mind readers and airships. Well balanced gameplay with any unit(no matter how cheap) fulfilling a niche and capable of destroying any other unit(no matter how dear) if used properly.

Missions are well planned and thought out. On the side there's a skirmish mode in which you may play as one of nine nations, each commanding a special unit.

Admittly the plot does n't hold much water but the characters featured are amusing(although in some cases a lil' crude) caricatures. Overall great fun and well worth taking a look at especially if you're already a C&C fan. 8.5/10

well i thought they couldn't improve on the first red alert. but i was wrong. this is a great video game. the story line picks up where red alert leaves off. stalin is dead and the americans put alexi romanov in charge of the soviet union. romanovis a career politician who speaks of peace and following the allied cause. however romanov hates the allies that destroyed his "mother russia"and begins plotting revenge. romanov experaments with mind control and finally he attacks, russians flowing into california, new york and texas. mind control makes american citizen's into russian slaves. and there we go . it's a great game. barry corbin is the commander of the allied forces. and like in red alert, he talks directly to you. a personal favorite of mine that tiberian sun doesn't have. the cahraacters talking directly to you. a great game and lots of fun.

I was totally thrilled with Red Alert. The game-play was great, the story was sweet and fun never seemed to end. Red Alert 2 is not only twice as good, but it's twice as addictive! Great videos really add to the game, along with a cool new Bad Guy. The missions are great and not to hard, but not to easy. Overall, a great game I recommend to anyone who loves real time strategy!

This is the second best real time stategy game out there (starcraft being #1). The gameplay is fun and challenging. The cutscenes were pretty good, and any bad acted that may have occurred was shrouded by Kari Wuhrer's presence. Yea shes hot.

Having played all the previous games this is by far the most exciting! The real time strategy makes for great game-play, as well as the built-in movies gives the game a more realistic feel to it. I hope that the creators at Westwood have more in the pipeline! Long live Command & Conquer!!!!
