I like playing the first and second installment of red alert, and i think the review tells all about the pros and cons of the game. The girls of red alert are hot, specially Mr. Bean’s, daughter. But the game play makes me hot—hot headed. (;b)

“red alert 4 will be a game where you have to team up with two Pokemon masters and green power ranger to form up SUPER MEGAZORD to defeat evil-sundown-empire-mechanical-bees and circus-bears-with-magical-helmets. But don’t worry! this time we will hire Ronald McDonald to improve their textures.”

*Hurl* I was deciding between getting RA3 and C&C3. I’m going with C&C3, an older game that is the same price as RA3. Red Alert was always the better series, too bad they ruined it by being “cute”. Atmosphere is the most underrated aspect of a game.

Of course there is. If you did not see the opening cutscene Tim Curry kills Einstein during 1927( Before WWII). So if Einstein did kill Hitler, how did he know that he has killed the most dangerous and shameless man of the 20th century before he even becomes the Fuhrer of Germany? For that to actually happen, he must go into the future, see the destruction, go back, kill Hitler and stay there until he himself is killed by the Soviet commanders.

There’s no plothole, they eliminate Einstein after he eliminates Hitler.

Generals is a terrible game,it´s a pitiful shadow of the original Red Alert,by far.lol.ALso Red Alert 3 isn´t that bad,not as good as the original(besides the technical improvements ofc)still much better than that crap generals-Red Alert 2 was awesome too.

“…resource collection is confined to static entities: oil derricks and ore mines. The use of static ore mines is a step backwards – sending your harvesters out to ore fields was always hugely challenging and entertaining in the original Red Alert…”

I totally agree

limited resource collection sucks.

Please make a patch to make it like it used to be.
What great mind had this “brilliant” idea to do this.
It used to be an important strategy component of the game

Guys, honestly this game isnt tht good. i saw red alert 2 three years ago in an internet cafe in syria(cze there was a war where i live in lebanon) and i saw tem playing games. i said i dont play computer games. i tried it, every dy for the next 2 months i went down there and played red alert for hours on end.on LAN, i beat everyone there. it was fking sweet. i bought an xbox 360 cze of this game red alert 3!! i bought it a week ago….dude…not tht many shit, they got rid of the best tanks,prism ones and replaced em wid some homo tanks, base expansion is harder, soviet has no aircraft and allies have no air base defns!! its gay!theres a command limit how gay is tht? everyone loves red alert cze u get to build a masive army and wipe out ur enemy. but worst of all, theres no mining for ore, there ore mines. so basically u always have some lesbo saying: insufficiant funds. in the old one id have like 200,000 resources!!!!! i cnt make more than 50 units of anything, and im always broke. cmon. there better be an expansion pack for this game soon. and d u r a retard. and tom…dude…geta life arent u like 30?

By the way has no one noticed the major plot flaw in Red Alert 3 in that if the Russians go back in time to eliminate Einstein then Einstein himself will never have a chance to go back and eliminate Hitler so WW2 will happen as normal and hence the whole Red Alert time line would be violated…..

And I also totally agree with the review. The whole franchise has gotten lost somewhere along the way and lacks the magic it once had.

Back in the Spring of 1995, I went to a friend of a friend’s place and saw a metal grey game box with gold lettering and the face of a be-goggled soldier (engineer?) on the front cover. He started the game and told me it was better than Battle Isle II. pheeffff! How can anything ever beat Battle Isle II?? I then spent the next 8-9 hours (originally, I was only passing by to drop off a pair of runners) watching them play out an epic with modern weapons, realistic ambience effects, a kick-ass soundtrack and awesome cinematics directed by Joseph (Ducan?) who played the role of Kane. I ended up getting the game. I even changed to a new PC just to be able to run the game. Spending on average 6-8 hours each day playing C&C and the expansive Covert Ops, I wore out both copies until RA1 came out along with CS and Aftermath additions. During Summer vacations, I sat 14 hours at a time hunchedin over the screen fighting it out in team-based deathmatches over the LAN with friends and strangers alike. Those were the best days of my life.

Witnessing the progression (or is it digression?) of the C&C genre into absurdity and oblivion was difficult at best. Tiberian Sun was amiable, which is why I bought a copy, but its left-field sci-fi elements and the decision to rid of the mammoth tank rained hard on the parade. The truth was painful and far from easy to swallow as fans in lamentation continuously, though with futility, hope and pray of a commensurate revival of former glories. It’s comparable to a disenchanted Michael Jackson fan. You enjoy, appreciate and respect the man’s work and yet one cannot help but cringe as their ideals, beliefs and values go down the gurgler as things take a ridiculous turn for the worst – that of artificiality.

My association with C&C, as well as gaming in general, ended with TS. The original C&C and RA were the reasons for taking up digital gaming entertainment trend and, likewise, had ended with the demise of the genre. Somehow, C&C had offered something the other competing titles cannot – StarCraft, WarCraft, TA, Dark Reign, Supreme Cmdr, WarHammer 40K etc…(though I did enjoy Z1 and KKND). Still, fans are always, hopelessly hopeful and optimistic whenever a new C&C title is announced – just in case it revives that good ol’ feeling.

The best review out there. I agree almost everything that u wrote. For me RA3 was a disapointment. And I feel, that the game doesn’t know what it should be, serious, cool or comedy. When that all is mixed, it just doesn’t work.

These series of games are getting worse and worse. Their best genre was Generals. Why dont they just stick to the modern warfare like in generals. No these wierd techno weenie WW2 tesla coil krap with dragon ball Z graphics…

Make it like real controversial… Arab world VS US while Europe Faction try to please sleeping bear Russia and China trying to keep its fellow Asian budies from goin nuclear while Paklistan and India start losing tolerance for each other.

No thats Comman and Conquer…
