It honestly doesn't seem that long ago when I was hooked on Red Alert. I'm not a massive fan of computer games, but Red Alert was one the few games that got me interested. You could play as the Allies or the Soviets and built up an arsenal of weaponry to take on and eventually take over the opposition. You could play against one or more computer-based opposition and, quite frankly, playing as the Soviets was way more fun. Build a few Tesla Coils, a few tank and rocket launchers and you were guaranteed success.05 Sep 2008
