It's kind of sad too because I use to harbor some real nostalgia to this game in particular but the last few nights of playing have made me hate it with a passion. As much as people complain about the games of today not being as good as the games of yore, there are some changes that I honestly can't remember how we played without, chiefly regenerating health. Say what you will about it, nothing is more frustrating than being stuck in a loop where you can't get past a certain section because you have no health.
Meh, I prefer non-regenerating health. It feels more like a test of skills rather than a test of patience. Non-regenerating health makes for more difficult gameplay, I like when games are difficult.

The Red Alert series was great, I still have no idea how Westwood went under. I always thought the C&C games were a great success.
