Throwback Thursday for 18th June

[Sonic 297]

 

Throwback Thursday is back this week after skipping last week while we made a server move. Today we are going back to the development days of Red Alert 2 from 2000. Taking a look at some the rejected box art concepts that Westwood went through before settling on what we all see today. Each concept featured the traditional soldiers head, except for for one that used the Tesla Trooper. A series of them used a female soldier so that's some interesting stuff there. Also worth mentioning, they all used the first Red Alert 2 logo that got changed in the final design to match the logo for the original Red Alert.

 

Check back again next Thursday for another Throwback. Send in your ideas for future instalments. We encourage you to share this on social media using the hash tags #CnCTBT and #CNCNZTBT.
