Advantages: solid game play, varied units, rendered cut scenes

Disadvantages: too short in my opinion

Where the Red Alert series all began.

Taking the C&C series into a completely different story line away from the Brotherhood of NOD and the GDI, see's this command and conquor outing set in the Cold War, with the Soviets being the bad guys, bent on world domination.

This game is a good game that shows that 3D graphics are not a necessity for the indredients in a good game, this is not to say that it is without good cut scenes, as all command & conquor games the cut scenes are beautifully rendered. the game play is much the same as the previous C&C game in that you build a base, establish youtself, build and army and wipe out the oposition. There are ofcourse a couple of missions where you play as a single commando (in the form of a female this time) where you must use stealth rather than brute military force to achieve your objectives.

All in all another good game, same core values as the original but with a completely new twist and time period.

A good investment for those looking for something new in their strategy gaming collection.

Summary: Awesome game than is a must have
