Remake of the classic that pretty much started the RTS genre.

User Rating: 7.1 | Dune 2000 PC
By tonytehtiger | Review Date:
Dune 2000 is basically a remake of Dune 2. The graphics and sound are improved along with the controls and AI.

However the gameplay is pretty much the same. This is probably the main reason why reviewers are giving it low scores, because it plays almost EXACTLY like Dune 2 so many years ago. Really, the developers could have expanded on the RTS formula instead of just copying it. This is also why i scored gameplay so low, because it is just rehashing an old game in a new package. Still, its a fun game.

Graphics: Back when I first got this game I was amazed at the graphics. They were smooth and detailed. I don't remember how it would hold up to today's graphics, but for its time they were impressive.

Sound: The music is well done. The unit responses are nothing spectacular, and the sounds are average.

For some nostalgic fun, this is an excellent game.
