This game is moderately strategic [Posted on 2001-07-11]
I played this game for a bit and found it was ok. It was very violent and futuristic, but i guess thats what teenagers want these days. I found the campaigns very easy, as I beat them in a week. The game isnt very strategic, but it has it's strategy points. This game should not be rated 5 stars. The graphics are mediocre, the music is annoying, and the gameplay is slightly boring after a while. As you go through the world as either the Russians or the English, you face many campaigns that you must beat. It was clever of them to put them together, but they are very easy. You can go along several paths, another plus, but the paths all end the same way if you win. This game is also not very strategic. You are either allied or soviet, and each team has completely different units. That maybe strategic, but there are only 2 points of views to master. In Age of Empires or Age of Kings, there are many different civilizations each with bonuses and special units. Also, the terrain has no affect on how damage is dealt. It will just deal the same amount every time. No matter to what kind of unit. In AOK, each unit has a different amount of armor, some have attack bonuses against certain units, and units have the advantage in battle when they are uphill. This game is also very violent and bloody with futuristic weapons. Not the kind of game i would like my kids playing. In AOK, the units use bows, arrows, and swords, with not much blood and historical features. It also has a whole history book of all the tribes that you can be and their history. Oh. What the point of the game is. Blow the other team to bits with guns as big as you can. I didnt like this game much, and from my review, you can see that I would reccommend Age of Empires or Age of Kings. See my review of Age of Empires Collecter's Edition. Before you even consider buying this game.

The Best Red Alert Ever!! [Posted on 2004-05-23]
-This is the best version of Red Alert. The Expansion version of this one (Red Alert Counterstrike) is even better!! I have tried many other strategy game by this same company, but the original Red Alert and its expansion is by far the best!!
A Real-Time Strategy Classic: C&C Red Alert [Posted on 2005-09-07]
This game is great for RTS players young and old. I never get tired of it, and the many expansions and maps you can play allow for thousands of unique games. The campaign is top rate, too!
Fun but hard [Posted on 2005-09-24]
Command & conquer Red Alert is a game I usually play at my friends house. Its a pretty fun video game. If you like strategy games which makes you think you will love this game. Its really hard as well. You can choose your country and have an army. You start off with $10,000 and you buy things that will keep your base safe because the other country is trying to kill you and destroy your land. You must get lots of soliders and good buildings and planes and lots of other things in order to defeat them.
