Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
30 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
With fun and timeless gameplay, creative faction and unit design, memorable presentation, and one of the best soundtracks in gaming, Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 & Yuri's Revenge aims for the stars and reaches them with an almost flawless execution.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
26 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Not to mention, the story works well as a stand-alone experience where you can pick it up and still get a complete story without playing the first Red Alert.
Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
16 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Cool units and in multiplayers (on cncnet, original multiplayer is broken) still fun!
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
14 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The UI and the mechanics have been updated since Tiberian Sun, and aged with far more grace than its sister game; the pixel graphics hold up impressively, with the game looking just as iconic as it did upon release.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
11 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Command & Conquer lives on its live-action FMVs and Frank Klepacki's soundtrack, and both are the series' best to date.
