Still the best Command and Conquer game after all these years, and one of the best RTS games overall.

8 years later and Red Alert 2 is easily still the best Command and Conquer game ever made. With 2 awesome campaigns, just the right amount of campy fun, and an insanely addictive multiplayer Red Alert 2 is a game that deserves a permanent home in any real-time strategy fan's collection.

Generals, Tiberium Wars, and Red Alert 3 are by no means bad games, but they have all failed to capture the perfectly balanced and strucured strategy of this classic. No other RTS has come close to matching the frantic yet strategically nuanced gameplay presented in Red Alert 2. It's still going strong online and shows no signs of slowing down in the near future.

All superlatives aside, this game absolutely must be experienced by anyone who missed it the first time around who considers themselves even a minor RTS fan.

Perhaps a future Command and Conquer game will eventually dethrone RA2 as the king of the series, but if the last few games have been any indication, we might have a quite some time to wait.
