This game is the prequel to the acclaimed Real Time Strategy game of 1995, Command & Conquer: Tiberium Dawn, it details the forming of the GDI and NOD forces and an alternate reality in which Hitler never rose to power, a more sinister force emerged, Stalin, and now he is marching across Europe.
I love the series and if we are talking about the movie sequnces, then it's great, the acting is spectacular and all fits in well in the story, even though it won't mean nothing to you if you are not playing.
Joseph Kucan is a great actor and I hope he won't turn to the big screen because there are Places to go, Buildings to raze.

a great game that starts out with albert einstien going back in time and eliminating adolf hitler from becoming a threat. however without hitler keeping the soviet union in check, stalin goes about trying to take over the continent.as either allies or soviets you either defend against soviet invaders or as soviets, try to invade and take over. a great film that has the characters talking directly to you. a cool feature that command and conquer doesn't do. the graphics are cool, and the weapons are great. a masterpiece by westwood.
The cutscenes in this game aren't anything to write home about. Unfortunately, given the limitations of technology and what could fit on a CD at the time, the film quality isn't the best. But none of that could stop the brilliant writing and performances.
The story is set in an alternative Soviet world- splicing futuristic war with history. It's amazingly done and quite gritty AND witty at the same time. In a way, this kind of storytelling was pioneering for its time as we are seeing more and more of this kind of narrative enter our screens.
Would recommend finding the cutscenes somewhere and watching, even if you aren't a gamer.

The movie sequences in Red Alert are great! You can't tell the backgrounds are computer generated and it looks photo realistic. The only thing I don't like is how the actors talk to the camera. Tiberian Sun will be better because you will actually be a character on the screen! Joseph Kucan is awesome!
Rated T for Violence.
I played Command And Conquer Red Alert a couple of times at my neighbors house.THe game is very good for its time.It has top-down graphics like Postal and Grand Theft Auto 1 and 2 and the gameplay is awesome.This is the only command and conquer game I ever played.I'm not much of a strategy game fan.I'm more of a fighting and shooting game fan so I have not played much games like this.The game is very hard.You have some money to start with and you must choose things like battle stations,electricity stuff you will need to defeat your enemies.You send trucks to find gold as well.This game requires lots of thinking and strategy.Command And Conquer Red Alert is a fun but hard game and I recommend it to any strategy game fan.
8/10

- TriviaRed Alert was originally planned to be an expansion to Command & Conquer (1995) but ended up so good that Westwood made it into a game in its own right.
- GoofsEastern European countries, such as Poland, have the borders they were given in "our" 1945, after being conquered by the Nazis and reconstructed by the Soviets. Yet the Nazis never existed in this chronology, so they couldn't have invaded Poland.

Josef Stalin: When you kill one, it is a tragedy. When you kill ten million, it is a statistic.
