However, I feel that there is the perfect blend of resource management, resource gathering, action, and micro-managing in this game. I can see some people thinking that this kind of real time strategy action is a bit simplified and in comparison, to what some modern RTS games offer, it is. Making The Right MoviesĬommand and Conquer Red Alert 2 is still so popular to this day because of the gameplay. I like the sound design in general as explosions, tanks and everything else all have some real heft to their sound effects. If you ask me, we were entering an age where voice acting was becoming better and better and this game has some very impressive performances. The only thing I do not like is that some of the maps have water and the water does not move! It looks super awkward and when everything else has a realistic look to it, it stands out like a sore thumb. The buildings, tanks, planes and so on all have a nice look to them. The different maps are spread out all across the world ranging from Russia, France, and Hawaii. This Is What War Looks LikeĪt the time Command and Conquer Red Alert 2 was a fantastic looking game and in some ways, I do feel that it holds up fairly well to this day. The story has more than a few twists and turns along the way as well. However, here you get to use him and also go up against him and it is very well done. Yuri is a fantastic character, so much so he gets his very own expansion. A psychic that they have who has the ability to control others. This time the Soviets are more dangerous than ever thanks to Yuri.
