 Waste of Money!! If Westwood made this it would have been awesome! November 21, 2008
First of all..... I didnt even know about DRM and shocked that EA would do such a thing!
Secondly.... after playing the game, I uninstalled it and deleted the files! Didnt fulfil my warry needs. It's too cartoony and the units are terrible! The elevation view is too low to the ground! So one doesnt get a full proper battlefield feel during the game! I didnt like the pop up of the women or so shouting random vocal slurry every so often either. The control panel is too much in your face and obscures battlefield view.
I think EA spent all the budget on 2nd rate hollywood actors (with the exception of Tim Curry and George Takei), marketing and hype without actually paying attention to the game itself.
Red Alert and Red Alert 2 I own and still play to my hearts content. Fantastic RTS at the time of release. So thats what I am going back to play with the odd Generals Zero Hour skirmish.
SO TO ANY WOULD BE BUYERS..... STAY AWAY!!! YOU WILL BE DISAPPOINTED!

The game is average at best thanks to the mighty "EA".
The whole DRM thing however just takes the biscuit. As many people have said, this won't stop pirates, it will just annoy real fans of the series such as me and many other people I know.
My advice? Buy Red Alert 2 - DRM free and NOT made by EA.
Should have stuck to tacky football games . . .
 There is another way? November 20, 2008

As i seen through all the reviews that many poeople are hating EA for putting spyware on to a game that seems very impressive. THERE IS ANOTHE WAY! if you want to buy the game spy ware free. all you need to do is buy the xbox 360 version no spy ware no problem. although the controlls are very different the game and gameplay are still the same. The only problem i see is if you dont have the 360 console.

Not a lot to add, Im just posting to add weight to the anti DRM movement in the hope that EA might start listening to their (ex)customers.
Another DRM abomination, argh.... November 19, 2008

I really want to play this game, as I have been an avid c&c fan for a long time, and especially the red alert line of the series. However I refuse to buy a game infected with this securom nonsense for the reasons the other reviewers have already outlined, so I won't repeat them all here. :p
Viva la resistance!
