Rating: Summary: Potential Review: The game has potential, in fact it is fun to play but.... It is one of the most frustrating games I have ever played. When you are killed you flash to a screen that askes if you want to load or quit. Hit load and after 40 seconds you flash to another screen that asks you what game you want to load. Click on the one you are playing and in another 40 seconds it loads. I'm running a high end machine and I find this interface between loads to be a lot like a bad commercial during a good movie. It has also locked up my computer several times and frequently crashed back to the desktop. With all of the good shooters out now, I wish I would have waited another month and bought it when it goes on sale....
Rating: Summary: To Easy. Review: I have been playing games like Tiberian Sun, RedAlert ect. But when I got RA2 I was dissopinted, I could kill my oppenents very quickly. This game makes me think westwood should get out of the field of RTS games, I played the game for a week and have not touched it since. That is the same for Yuri's revenge, I have no trouble killing 30 brutes then destroying my oppenent at all. They proboly made this games for little kids who were having to much trouble playing games like Tiberian Sun. So I suggest that you do not buy this game. It is a complete wast of money. If you want a good game Get Tiberian Sun. Or Shogun Total war.
Rating: Summary: whats with all the haters Review: why douse averwon hate this game. its filled with non-stop action, and mutants what more do you need.... ok i admit a little more time and this could have been a must have, but the levels at the beggining and end have the must have feel of total all out war. the few levels inbetween arent terrible eather and great online play thanks to command and conquer mode make this a ecxellent first try. ooh i just hope they make a nod exapsion pak.
Rating: Summary: C&C ra2 Review: This is a very good game, and for the price of both the standard game and the expansion pack, it makes it even better
Rating: Summary: very very fun, good for a first try Review: I have played many fps games, but one NEVER as strange as this. It was good ill admit, but one of the most terrible things was the ai (shown in other reviews). I mean, the reviewers were right the ai is horrible, you can use an ion cannon beacon on the hand of nod and the guard will stand there pickin' his nose while the place falls apart. A good point I must point out is the graphics, these were good, but could've been better. I like this game because it has the feel like your a real soldier in battle like in other CC's. Unlike a real one of those, you dont die in two hits because of a shotgun. another thing i love:buildings. These are full scale structures you can explore and destroy. You have an awsome selection of ways to blow it up, you can go for the terminal, place an ion cannon beacon, destroy the con. yard to make them unrepairable (the engineers can however), or just to wreak havoc upon it with a vehicle. The loading time I must say ... . Enough said on that. In the cut scenes, its like the first godzilla. Lock would say "WHAT DID U THINK YOU WERE DOING, HAVOC??!!!!" his mouth will go on and on and on. Overall I give this 4 and 1/2 stars. It was REALLY good considering a first try for westwood.I have no problem with the game play either
Rating: Summary: Great game! Review: This game wasn't designed for Single Player. WestWood Studios and EA totally concentrated on the multiplay for this one. Thats what this game is all about--the multiplay. And with its ultimately streamlined, simple interface, even a 6-year-old can rocket to the top of the ladder (probably not, but you know what I mean).Name another game where you can execute a 5 Flame Tank, 2 APC assault with your peeps. Can't think of any? Thats what I thought. There are so many different tactics and roles in multiplayer it is simply astounding. Will you be a sniper and cover your peeps as they charge the enemy base in their tanks? Will you play defense and patrol the base as a Technician (or any of the other 9 characters per side)? Or will you be the lone wolf and try to infiltrate the enemy base to plant the beacon on the pedestal in the barracks, ending the game in one move? The choice is up to you. I give this game a 4 because the singleplayer simply [stunk]. Poor AI and somewhat dull story. Some of the levels were pretty fun though (Tomorrow's Technology Today is my personal favorite). And as many people have said, the graphics weren't exactly awe-inspiring. RTCW has the same system requirments and its graphics are 100x better--must the game engine Renegade was designed with. BUT remember: this game wasn't made for SP, it was made for MP!

Rating: Summary: good but hard Review: this game has lots of new units and the new yuri side rules. the new battlegrounds are good and the super weapons are better.
Rating: Summary: Good for a first try at FPS Review: First of all, let me say I have played all the C&C games (minus expansion packs) except Sole Survivor, and am a great C&C fan. Now, I know all the reviews seem to give Renegade bad ratings... why? For Westwood's first try at an FPS, I think it's a good try. Of course not everything could be right. BAD POINTS 1. Story - Renegade's story is a little weak. It's basically the same kind of story we've seen in all those other FPS. Renegade, hotshot commando, old flame that's part of the enemy, secret operations, the whole lot. But as this IS and FPS, the story doesn't account for much. 2. Graphics - Graphics could have been improved. A little bit blocky, but they are ok. Nothing nice here, but nothing horrible either if you've played the C&C games. 3. AI - This is where the loss of a star comes in. The AI in this game is the worst I have ever seen... except perhaps in Tiberian Dawn. The AI will never pay attention to you unless they actually see you. You can walk right up to some of them, shoot a guy right next to them, and they will still stand with your back to you. Come on. When they do see you, all they do is charge right at you, in the line of fire. Kind of fun for a while, but gets annoying later. GOOD POINTS 4. Multiplayer - Multiplayer C&C mode ROCKS! It feels a lot like you really are a soldier on the battlefield of a C&C skirmish/online game. Only con is you can't build buildings. 5. C&C Feel - This has got to be Renegade's biggest pro. The game feels like it was meant to feel, as if you have been put in the shoes of the six pixel high commando unit from the original C&C. 6. Buildings - The seamless transition from indoor to outdoor is awesome. You can just walk up to a building, watch the door open, and shoot at an AI in the building, then walk into the building and explore it. In singleplayer they are absolutely huge. My fav is the Hand of Nod, because it's so big and has such cool rooms. Only question is - do they normally have flamethrowers in the kitchen supplies? NEUTRAL POINTS 7. Load Times - Well, load times are very slow. However, if you've ever seen a mission as large as the ones in Renegade with the interior of huge buildings also having to load at the same time, I think it's going to be about just as slow. Just look at it this way - as long as you don't die, you only have to wait for the load inbetween missions.
Rating: Summary: could have been a lot better Review: i was really disappointed with c&c's newest release. Although i am not one of those fanatical C&C fans, i do love first person shooters (fps). The AI is the most horrible i've ever seen in a fps, and i've played a lot of games. The characters look like boxes, Havoc's personality is a cardboard cutout, the script and story line is hilariously bad, and Havoc's lines are corny. Most of all, both the single player and multiplayer are desperately below par. The single player was much too short, the bosses are too easy to kill, and the scenery is atrocious. The multiplayer is just as bad, since the base defences are much too difficult to bypass and you can only carry one weapon at a time. Westwood truly disappointed me with this game, i thought they were capable of a more thought out and prepared game. If you are going to spend [$$$] on a game, spend in on Max Payne or Return to Castle Wolfenstein. Unless you're a diehard C&C fan, this one probably isn't for you.
