1 - U must have Lan card installed on both computers.
2- make a crosslink cable and connect both the PCs through that cable - either make it your self or go to any local computer shop theyll make it for you tell them you want crosslink cable (it wont cost much)
3- when the two computers are connected through cable you could see the small computers beside the clock connected - double click it - click properties - on general tab window click internet protocol (TCP/IP) then hit properties - on that window select the option "use the following ip address" then give the ip address "192.168.0.1" and the other computer give "192.168.0.2" - click on the subnet mask field and it will automatically get the value "255.255.255.0"
4- go to start - click run - type "ping 192.168.0.1 -t" if u get response then u have successfully connected both computers - other wise it would be written "host unreachable", if not then most propably you have done something wrong or i couldnt make my self much clear
5- if the ping is successful start the game go to the multiplayer and lan ( now i dont know wat the screen looks like for red alert 2 because i havent played it in multiplayer) but i think it will be same as CNC Tiberium Wars ( which i have played in multiplayer) create a game and it will take you to next screen which will be like chat room - on the other computer click join a game give the ip address of the computer on which u have created the game - if it joins you could both see each other on the next window - there should be a button play game hit it and it will synchornize both computers and there you go enjoy ( if you are succesfful that is )

i remember some time ago trying to play red alert 2 on a home network (b/w two computers),
but it wasn't easy! there was some extra stuff that needed to be done and after going through many forums and searching google, i found out how to do it...
but the game lagged big time, hardly playable, so it wasnt worth the trouble...

The only thing extra in Red Alert 2 is that you need to install the IPX protocol. It can be found where you set the IP of your LAN card. IPX is a protocol which was used in win98. Anyways install this and configure the options in red alert to able to see the person in LAN.
hmmm dont know why u got lag may be it was the problem of IPX protocol which desolator is talking about..
well i played CNC Tiberium wars even through my WI-FI connected to friends lap top - it was fantastic except some time lag here or there

170 + countries where Steam sells but PSN doesn't will lose access unless they use VPNfaraany3k said: -

It has a worst rating on Steam than last years MW3 now. Jeese Sony, how can you fuck it up THIS BAD

faraany3k:
I have heard that it is now unplayable in countries which do not support handful of third world countries not recognized by Sony like Pakistan. Steam is a true global platform.Then they cry that console gaming is dying. -

Gaben ki reach hai, PSN ki nahi hai. Gaben ain't stressing over publishers who rush to his store in the first place

Chandoo:
saeen I don't think the PSN teams are stressing over needing to offer hundreds of thousands of refunds lol

You reap what you sow. This is what happens when you take away choice from consumers. Even with 88% split going to developers, they can't recoup costs. Meanwhile, Helldivers 2 is a massive hit for Sony thanks in big part to Steam.iampasha said: -

Alan wake 2 is yet to recover it's development costs. Due to no physical release and no steam launch. -
