My wife bought this for 12 bucks. Its worth the price for the game even though its a few years old.
Over all its not bad. The added video scenes of John Rys Davies is a nice touch.
Fun war game.

In Dune 2000 you choose 1 out of three houses to play as. In the game you must accomplish objectives while battling with the other two houses. Dune is the planet you are fighting on. The house that defeats the other two houses takes over Dune. In the game you get to build your own personal war base and start building up your army to fight in large battles to the death. The graphics of the game aren't all that great. It isn't very detailed, but you know why when you play it because Dune is nothing but sand and deserts. The sound in the game is okay. Mostly just simple noises. The control is excellent. It is very easy and responsive. The gameplay of this game is pretty fun, but I gave it 3 stars because of the sound and graphics. I recommend this game.
C&C stunk too

The only time I would ever play this game is if some body locked me in a room and said "Play either C&C red alert or Dune 2000." Sure,there are plenty of units and junk for all three houses, but do we really need westwood to show us that they can make another C&C that isn't a hit? The graphics are probably the worst part of Dune 2000. Westwood used the same engine for Red alert, and made the graphics even worse by including only one type of terrian: sand. There really isn't much to the sound, if fact so little that I can't remember. The only reason you would ever want to spend your perfectly good money on this is if you are a die hard Dune and C&C fan who is bored out of their mind. Even then, prepare for another trip to the game store in a week.

The game looks good and has some nice control features, but it is exactly the same game as Dune 2 in content.

I liked original dune 2 very much.
It was sensational to me when I played it about 10 years ago. I had played other RTS but I couldn't find any game like dune 2.
I met dune 2000 a few years ago. It invoke me the emotion I got 10 years ago.
It was new born Dune 2 with improved graphic and game engine.
I have liked it much and played more than 5 times except for network play.
I'm also looking forward that Emperor would invoke me another emotion by beautiful 3D graphic.
Thank you for your reading.

Similiar to the WarCraft/StarCraft type games, but not as cleanly engineered. Certainly enjoyable for all fans of The Dune Universe.
The saga of Dune continues...
borderline fun

I have had this game for a while and I have to admit it is fun. It is much like Starcraft in that you have to gather resources, train units, and defend your base. It does however have a few differences, however, first of all since it is based on the world of Dune you must build concrete below your buildings or they will take constant damage from the weather. You also have to build silos to keep the spice that you mine that is a slight problem in that if you don't have enough the game doesn't tell you it just keeps mining and you get no more spice. The game is fun if you like challenging games it is defiantly a hard game. It takes a long time to beat each campaign, which require a lot of concentration and thinking. It is a good strategy game if you like a hard game. And it extends this by giving you 3 different races to control and lead to victory over the planet of Dune.
The reason that I gave this game a 3 is for a couple reasons. One is that the graphics are very old looking they like a old DOS game. The storyline for the game is not all that great it is just pillage or be pillaged kind of game. The movies are another downer it has a mix of real-life and animation. The background is all animated but the characters are real actors, which I think make's a game look really cheesy it should either have all real life or all animation. It also looks like the game tries to make itself better by putting big actors in it.
My final decision is that this game is good in all around strategy but if your looking for a game with a good plot and look to it this is not the game for you. .
