I don't care how old this is. EVERYONE needs to know about arguably one of the best intros to a video game that I have ever seen. Back in the days when games were good.

Damn ruskies! These scenes are so B-movie, but so good.
Fucking nostalgia.
Oh god the nostalgia
So much nostalgia, i'd be playing this game right now if it still worked on modern systems.
holy shit.
nostalgia.
brb my red alert 2 cd is here somewhere..
Dat nostalgia
i played this game for 3 years
3 fuckin years
no game has topped that yet and i don't think any ever will
I am playing it right now. Gave the CD to my dad just now so he can install it also.
oooh man, this is the best Command and Conquer game.
The president is the Dad in Twin Peaks. Hell yeah.

Agreed, insane amounts of nostalgia.
I can still play Red Alert 2 on MY computer, even if it does run weirdly.

So true. Oh so fucking true. Anyways, quite a nostalgia attack.
They have a squid shaped submarine yet they use the fucking Hindenburg to storm the country?
Its like adding a medieval cannon to a battalion of tanks. Makes no sense. Cool intro nonetheless.

Wrong.
RA2, Yuri's Revenge were my favorite RTS's back in the day.
Until Supreme Commander came along.

RA1's intro. I'm not going to post RA3's because that game was fucking horrible.

That's not a submarine, it's an actual squid.
Also Kirov Airships were insanely powerful ingame. Know what you're talking about before you say something.
One of my favorite games. Didn't the president end up getting killed though?
Watchu on bout. Ra2 works fine on my pc.
However that might be because of The first decade.
Also I recommend the first decade to everyone.
thing about this is, I watched all the cutscenes once and then I was fucking over it, sitting through them more than once is too painful. I still have my game box from when pc game boxes were huge. the box had the flap that opened and the skyline in the background has the twin towers in new york still standing.
first real game I ever played.good times :frown:

as in not a tycoon game.or those shitty kid games.RA2 is what got me into gaming which got me into computers so yeah....
i liked yuris revenges intro much better.. goddamn those were the days.. smugging while playing on my Pentium 4
this game was THE BOMB. i mean, v8 missile swarms, ROBOT GODDAMN SQUIDS THAT SINK SHIPS. no other game has those. they PALE in comparison to the badassness that was westwood.
also, the music kicked ASS.
Sweet Jesus, Red Alert. Great gameplay, fantastic units, hilarious Story and an amazing soundtrack. Chronolegionnaire + IFV = Rape.
