I think we should show a picture of the game's cover on this page.>--Taida 00:43, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

Agreed, but I'll leave it for somebody else to deal with, for fear of screwing it up! Colossus 86 11:11, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Game balance and lack thereof

Not that I really see this happening, but I didn't notice any mention of the balance problems caused by the expansion in the article, and there were some in several of the other articles on the series, praising it for its Ally-information, Soviet-power dynamic. It seems pretty widely considered that Yuri's Revenge made Yuri's side incredibly powerful and the Soviets severely underpowered. But in the article, I don't see anything recognizing that. If no one else has run into this, then there's no point in making a note of it, but the page currently seems incomplete because there's no "reaction" section anywhere. -Insomniac By Choice 15:20, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Allied mission 2: Names of the celebrities

I've been playing the German version of Yuri's Revenge where those celebrities in the second mission of the Allied had unique names like "Flint Westwood" and saying phrases like "Smith and Wesson loaded" and such. When I was playing the English version, however, the names were changed to something like "hero" and "cowboy". Has this been changed with a patch? I'm just asking since this could be mentioned in a trivia section maybe. - Jack's Revenge 01:56, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

Well, I think it was with earlier editions, the Hollywood celebrities were called "Flint Westwood", "Arnie Frankenfurter", and "Sammie Stallion", and they all had different voices, but then in later editions, the names were changed to "Cowboy", "Hero", and "Bodybuilder", respectively, plus, they shared the voices of the Allied GI. I think it was in a patch, that the celebrities' names and voices were restored, though I'm not really sure. --May the Edit be with you, always. T-borg ^{(drop me a line)} 10:23, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
