It's 2001. Saturday morning. You just finished watching your favorite saturday morning cartoon. Mom and dad went out for errands. You boot up the computer, pop in the CD-ROM for Yuri's Revenge. Life is good.
"Empty your mind. Only total compliance can save the lives of you and your family. The less you know, the better off you will be. I am Yuri.... Obey me."
I'm not so sure. Westwood's old employees remastered the first one and they did a great job, but RA2 doesn't have primitive graphics, low quality cutscenes and has a unit queue. I'd be thrilled if a remaster for that came too but I wouldn't have high expectations. And I'd be supporting EA, and we know what didn't happen with CNC4.
The Red Alert 2 soundtrack always gives me the chills/creeps. 😖😖😖 It just seems like all of Yuri's monstrous machines gathered together for a musical orchestra.
It sounds like at dusk or just before dawn, spotlights turn on all fixed on this big machine or vehicle or superweapon as it turns on, and you are looking at it like those tilted up camera angles that conveys the subject of the shot's power. And then the supervillain is right in front of it making crazy speeches of ruling the world or something like that. Like that tune at the beginning that plays a lot in other parts of the game
no bro.., prism tanks explode easily .., I dare you play the game and match 6 prism tanks vs 3 deployed desolators ..., I double dare you..., proves that you only played allied countries..,
Hmmm from what i remember i outranged most desolators on games i played for some reason. nah nevermind, never really fought with iraq that much anyway.
Both games are great but if you said " ra2 yuri's revenge is better than ra3" oh no no its not even close, the yuri's division was boring imo not having too much troops and tanks especially the marines as compared to the rising sun division in ra3. Also there are no campaigns for yuri tho so that was lame tbh.
Fun fact: both "Brain Freeze" and "Drok" used quotes from old science fiction movies in them (and, in point of fact, both tracks have quotes from the SAME movie; the lines "Your fear of helplessness is your best friend, savage!" and "The power of pure intellect" both come from the movie _The Brain from Planet Arous_ !)
I like to associate songs from various games with the factions of a hypothetical Mobius-based RTS game for inspiration. Which are the following.

Electronic Arts owns the rights to the Command & Conquer franchise and can do whatever they want with the Westwood-made games. Though there are a group of people who are trying their best to recreate and improve upon the old Westwood titles. Look for Open RA, it contains the first Tiberium wars, Red Alert, and Dune titles. Best part, it's all free, though you can make donations to the group to help fund their projects.
+Jesse GD I already know about open RA and play it quite a bit, i was just curious why ea never released RA2 as freeware they did it with all the other classic westwood cnc and dune titles why not this one?
Edit: I misread what Jesse said and disagreed with him. I now second his words. OpenRA indeed does a great job at improving the game experience of these titles.
still playing this game am a proud owner who plays this since release, a top quality game that will never die out, if EA finally decides to hand out this game "freeware" they would actually make so many people very happy
@Harumi Kagaya He was referring to the part that computers back in those days were really bad and yuris revenge could crash them by having too many explosions happening on screen at the same time. Happened to my crappy pc a few times god bless its nonexistent soul! XD

Anyone here hoping Red Alert 2 and Yuri's Revenge get the Remaster treatment like OG Red Alert did?
yeah, maybe soon
I'm not so sure. Westwood's old employees remastered the first one and they did a great job, but RA2 doesn't have primitive graphics, low quality cutscenes and has a unit queue. I'd be thrilled if a remaster for that came too but I wouldn't have high expectations. And I'd be supporting EA, and we know what didn't happen with CNC4.

It sounds like at dusk or just before dawn, spotlights turn on all fixed on this big machine or vehicle or superweapon as it turns on, and you are looking at it like those tilted up camera angles that conveys the subject of the shot's power. And then the supervillain is right in front of it making crazy speeches of ruling the world or something like that. Like that tune at the beginning that plays a lot in other parts of the game

then they all got melted by 3 deployed desolators

Nah, deployed desolators get rekt by prism tanks, and to be frank anything gets rekt by massed prism tanks, except air.

The needs of the many are outweighed by the needs of the Yuri.
"There will be no free will. Only my will." - Yuri, during the conversation with the President Dugan.

I was going through a depressing "break my soul phase when I wrote that. Must have been Yuri's brainwashing. Or was it my dad's cigarette addiction?

"The needs of the many are outweighed by the needs of Yuri!"
"The mind is quicker than the eye"
" Perhaps I could be of assistance "

Mod synergy for RA3 realized if Yuri was in Red Alert 3 like the one of front of conflict.
Both games are great but if you said " ra2 yuri's revenge is better than ra3" oh no no its not even close, the yuri's division was boring imo not having too much troops and tanks especially the marines as compared to the rising sun division in ra3. Also there are no campaigns for yuri tho so that was lame tbh.
The amount of hours I would hear this login onto the multiplayer...
It took me 6 years to knew that it has some parts of Hell march

Everytime I listen to Brain Freeze, I always have to have Drok afterwards, they just go so well together
Fun fact: both "Brain Freeze" and "Drok" used quotes from old science fiction movies in them (and, in point of fact, both tracks have quotes from the SAME movie; the lines "Your fear of helplessness is your best friend, savage!" and "The power of pure intellect" both come from the movie _The Brain from Planet Arous_ !)
It actually sounds so much like "Influence", I really have to wonder if Frank distorted the sample so it would sound like that on purpose.
Hey which song are you talking about?
It's saying "The power of pure influence", you can look up the quote from "Brain from Planet Arous"
