Rating: Summary: A great, action packed thrill! Review: I've never played any of the original Command and Conquer games before, but picked up a copy of Red Alert 2 due to good remarks from gamers. Even on my dull computer:An Activa K6-2 500 MhZ, 152 RAM, and a Voodoo 4 PCI video card that never seems to run good, the game was smooth, with very little slow down, even with hundreds of units on screen. Speaking of units, both the Allies and Russians are well balanced, with one unit beating out the others and so forth. The campaigns are fun and a great challenge, but the cut scenes in between missions is laughable. Overall, this game is a great buy, and one hell of a blast.
Rating: Summary: rip roaring fun! Review: gave me more of everything I LOVED about Red Alert 2 and then some! Yuri is hysterical and the game play is awesome. Keep it up Westwood.
Rating: Summary: AWESOME! Review: This game rocks! Be careful when you put the game on hard, up till the 4th or 5th level, you need to be on your toes cause the computers hittin' you from every which way! They finally made the computer a worthy opponent to play. It puts even some veteran players to shame.(Except me) BUY THIS GAME! YOU WON'T REGRET IT!
Rating: Summary: Destined to be a Classic Review: This Westwood Studio game is truly astounding. Wage war against real countries around the world, with devastating super weapons, such as Nuclear Missles, Iron Curtain, Tesla Coils, and Prism Towers. Infantry men transform into machine gun nests, surrounded by sandbags, and rienforcements arrive every minute. Overall, this game is destined to be a classic.
Rating: Summary: Great game that delivered where it needed to deliver Review: First off, this is the second review I've written for this game...I guess Amazon deleted all the reviews or something. Oh well, on to the review!Many people were turned off to the CC series with Tiberian Sun. "It was too slow, too boring!" they said. Fear not, for RA2 brings the fun back to this legendary series. At first glance, the game units and graphics almost look like they were taken straight out of a cartoon compared to past CC games. But you'll soon come to appriciate the graphics and the visuals. The units are fairly large; no more losing units in the background. Both the Soviets and the Allies have some impressive new units and some good ole' renditions from the old RA game. The Tesla Coil is back, and now, the Tesla trooper is a mainstay. The allies have some beefed up troops, who can deploy into stationary gunners that can be the bane of advancing Soviet troops. And let's not forget Professor Einstein and all his wonderful creations that he's going to cook up for the allies. Yes, the Soviets are not as technically advanced, but you'll love the brute force that they possess. You'll know no horror like when you're playing the allies and you suddenly see 10 Zepplins heading straight for your base. Ouch time. The cinimatics are better than most game movies, but they are fairly cheesy in some points (like the end movie for the allies). We finally get to see a living and breathing Eva and Tanya, and they're not to be taken lightly. And, they look good too (well, do you really think that EA and Westwood would choose Rosanne Barr to play Tanya?!?!). Overall, this is a very good game that could have been made a little better by having a few more single player missions. The game pace is frantic, fun, fast-paced, and exciting. You'll never be bored while playing this. It is a must-own for all strategy fans, and most computer game fans the world over.
Rating: Summary: Command & Conquer Red Alert 2 Expansion: Yuri's Revenge Review: A must have for all, from serious gammers to casual players. The graphics are supurb. The game makers really outdid themselves. I am relatively new to C&C, but in no time I have becom hooked!! I just recently got my 13 year old sister addicted as well. See you all online !!
Rating: Summary: Oh, good lord! Review: I wish i could give it less than 1 star, but thats the lowest that amazon.com will let me go. Don't listen to the oher reviews here, trust me. (...) If you're going to spend time playing a strategy game, at least do yourself a favor and play something GOOD (...)
Rating: Summary: Add-on to the Best Game! Review: This is one of the better add-ons I have played. I would get this if you own Red Alert 2, like Rts games, and or like military games. It's very well put together and is always fun. The one thing that gets me is the loading times, they take forever! I still play it and enjoy it, but still. If you are a Red Alert nut get this asap. It's great!
Rating: Summary: Best One Yet Review: Yuri's Revenge is one of the best expansion pack I've ever purchased. On Red Alert 2, the original game, I play multiplayer a lot. With Yuri's Revenge, multiplayer is a ton more exciting. There are new units asnd structures you can use defeat other players. If you're not able to beat the co-op missoins you can go on-line and download trainers. Overall I think this game is the game to buy.
Rating: Summary: This sounds like a really good game Review: From what I've read, this game sounds similar to Battlezone2. You go around in whatever veichal and blow stuff up while at the same time commanding your army. Battlezone2 is one of the best games ever(...) so if this game is anything like BZ2, I'd glady pay 3 times the price they list.
