THE GOOD:
No population limit, unlike other RTS games. That makes this excellent for large battles over the net.
Lots of countries to choose from, including Russia, England, and the US.
A new country, Yuri enters the play.

THE BAD:
Can have a lot of lag when too many units are produced.
Campaigns WAY too easy.
Yuri can have an unfair advantage in multiplayer matches.
AI can get annoying with the exact same strategies every time.
Some glitches with terrain.

SUMMARY:
The graphics: 3.5
Fair graphics, I've seen better though. Nothing to gawk at, as sometimes there are terrain glitches.

The Sound: 2.5
The music that plays can get really annoying after a while, and the cut-scenes are aggravatingly common.

The Gameplay: 4.4
Excellent gameplay, singleplayer matches can be set to complete moron level, or an average, or a kick your butt to the moon and back hard. Multiplayer matches have...

THE GOOD:
New units
Third side
Good storyline in single player mode

THE BAD:
Super weapons still too powerful
Seems to run much slower on some systems

SUMMARY:
This game is the expansion pack to Red Alert 2. It introduces more units and evolves the storyline well from the original game, which I think is rare for expansion packs. Everything that was in the original is still here with some improvements made, for example you can now divide computer players into teams.

The single player mode tells the story of how Yuri (the mind control unit from the original game) has rebelled against the Soviets and is now trying to conquer the world himself. For an expansion pack there is actually a very good storyline here and it follows on well from the original game. Because of this, a third side has been introduced into a Command and Conquer game for the first time. This means an entire new set of units has been added into the game as well...

THE GOOD:
Amazing stylish, scary Yuri buildings ; introduction of an all-new side the Yuri.

THE BAD:
Hopeless new units for the Allies and the Soviets- like the guartdian G.I and the spy plane.

SUMMARY:
C & C Red Alert 2 was the most cool game I had ever played. (You can see my review in the forum) but Yuri's revenge was med even better my the intro of an all-new side. Entering the battle is an ambitious pissed off phsycic person with the most the most amazing side ever seen. He has phsycic defense structures, phsycic machines, and even mind controlling phsycic dominators. Unfortunately ,Westwood did not bother to add a Yuri single player campaign so either you fight against Yuri in a campaign or with Yuri in a skirmish game. Still, DO NOT let this factor pull you down. This game is a MUST-BUY!!! GO AND BUY IT NOW!!!!!!!!

THE GOOD:
a long game that will keep you busy... but it's worth it.

THE BAD:
hard to beat, and will most likely take a walkthrough

SUMMARY:
this is the best game ever! has a great story. i love the varity in the units. the movies make it even better. there are many extra downloads to keep you excited all the time, the downloads include: map editor (awsome and easy to use if you have the right one), unite editor, already made maps, and of course downloads to change the whole game (can take a while to download). but the game can be very hard at times, but dont let that discourag you, or make you stop playing, use the internet to get a walkthrough or some hints. im not a fanitic at the game, like some other people i know, but it is fricken awsome. let's go beat yuri's a@@. he been a bit crazy lately.

THE GOOD:
new missions, new army, new units, one pissed off psychic guy, lots of internet play, classic RA2 battle system

THE BAD:
needs more missions, needs more countries, NEEDS YURI MISSIONS

SUMMARY:
This is the stuff... its packed with more units, has more tech buildings, has a new yuri army that is totally sweet with all the mind control technology. yuri army is also decked out with new superweapons... sweet.

THE GOOD:
Cut Scenes
Sound Effects
Graphics
Yuri's army
New units

THE BAD:
umm... err.. *scratches head thoughtfully*
it's just devoured 2 weeks of my life!
lack of Yuri campaign =(

SUMMARY:
well... i wasn't much of a RTS fan and so i wasn't really expecting much when my friend said he'd just got Red Alert 2 and was bringin it over. When he arrived ,however, it was a different matter entirely! I had played, and enjoyed to a small extent, the first Red Alert; but it never really grabbed me. But within a few minutes of playing it i was hooked. then he had 2 go but when i went to game with £30 in my hand a few days later i saw YR and thought "hmm.. what they hey.. i'll buy it"

i didn't regret it... i loved it from the start, although the difficuly is fairly extreme, and i have barely stopped playing since.

Skirmishes as Yuri, campaigns, u name it i've been playin it...

if u have even...

This game is so good Yuri is using it to brainwash people.

This game rocks!!! It is the best sequal to a c&c yet. If you are a fan of the RTS genre you should really look into this one. Nice graphics, smooth gameplay, and non-stop action.

THE GOOD:
Westwood finally goes 3 player for the C&C games. you wanted anything more!? hehe.. a whole new side, with new structures, new units. upgrades to allies and soviets. also, rumoured to include new anti- cheating system included. we'll see... more storyline involved [comparably more then ith Firestorm]

THE BAD:
YOU CANT PLAY YURI'S SIDE IN SOLO!!! now what this!?all the pro C'n'C'ers were so anxious.. well, westwood isnt pefect too.

SUMMARY:
this is the first time westwood truly experiments with "3 camp" strategy. they decided to go step by step, so the add-on will not include solo mssions for Yuri. oh well. the game will aslo have some of the most significant "unit & stuctures" add-ins, including some very interesting units for us RA fans, the migs, that will now operate with the help o a "targeter": Boris. also, the Magnetron/Mastermind tactic where you use the first unit to pull in and immobilise tanks and the second one to mind...
