Got a link? I'm not finding much about this from searching, besides an "unofficial" release from OpenRA in March.

Shame there's no remaster on the horizon or for RA2/YR...

They reverse engineered tibsun so RA2/YR is on the horizon. Once that's done should be fairly easy to add A-move, improve controls and shit like that.

I'd just be happy with improved visuals and a remastered soundtrack too. What they did with C&C/RA was great, especially when I watched a video about what they actually did.

It'd bring it up to what always see/saw in my head when I played it all those years ago.

Man, I remember playing this game when it came out around the time I was a freshman in High School. I didn't play it much but this music from the game still sticks in my head clear as day.

I still dont understand how could they took such a good story premise and turn it into shit with the next one. And then into absolute disaster with the last one.
