I avoided this game when it first came out, though I did enjoy playing its predecessor and winning on both sides (Allied and Soviet) on that same game. It took me a while, but I beat the game on the Soviet side in 1997 and the Allied side in 2002. But then I played a little of Red Alert 2 at a friend's house and it was a whole different world. It made me want to play more. The graphics were a little dated but the action was all there. And after hearing all the mediocre talk about the second Tiberium game (Tiberian Sun), I thought Red Alert 2 would be nice. Guess what? It's even better than the second Tiberium Game. And unlike C&C2 there are major improvements to the whole gameplay of the Red Alert saga. Plus new units and structures. What else is new? New characters on both the Soviet and the Allied forces sides and more Tanya. It's a little underwhelming considering the Soviets don't have much airpower but the Terror Drones make nice parasites on the Allied armor. But if you enjoyed Red Alert 1 and were disappointed by C&C: Tiberium Dawn and Tiberian Sun, try this!
Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2
(2000 Video Game)
Better than both Tiberian Sun and Red Alert 1!
