There's still healthy competition from Blizzard and Microsoft's AoE series, but it's gratifying to see Westwood returning to the fight with such a remarkably developed game. We'll still have to wait for another title to redefine what RTS games are going to become, but Red Alert 2 is an excellent example of everything that RTS games currently are.

Red Alert 2 is definitely the best game to date in the Command & Conquer series, and Westwood have shown considerable merit in learning from (and correcting) the mistakes of their previous games. The single player campaigns are great fun, and multiplayer has been very well balanced and improved so that most of the rough edges have been smoothed out, resulting in a game that is simply great fun to play.
