Description

In Red Alert 3, the desperate leadership of a doomed Soviet Union travels back in time to change history and restore the glory of Mother Russia. The time travel mission goes awry, creating an alternate timeline where technology has followed an entirely different evolution, a new superpower has been thrust on to the world stage, and World War III is raging. The Empire of the Rising Sun has risen in the East, making World War III a three-way struggle between the Soviets, the Allies, and the Empire with armies fielding wacky and wonderful weapons and technologies like Tesla coils, heavily armed War Blimps, teleportation, armored bears, intelligent dolphins, floating island fortresses, and transforming tanks.

Red Alert 3 asks the question "What If?" What if every bizarre research project and technology experiment for the last 70 years had actually borne fruit? What if the Philadelphia Experiment, time travel theory, teleportation, invisibility, Tesla technology, and a hundred other intriguing research projects had all paid off and gone mainstream? What if the Soviet Union survived and thrived; what would it look like 10 years in the future? What if the Japanese Empire had never fallen and instead became the ultimate high-tech military superpower? The end result is an imaginative and playful vision of an alternate future filled with possibility.

Review by Lachlan on 2nd January, 2009
"Best RTS Out!"
Pros:

*Uses the best game engine for an RTS game out! (My opinion)
*Amazing water effects
*Brings back the good old days of twisted time and teleportation
*Online Co-op on missions
*Build most buildings on water
*Plus more

Cons:
(Only a few cons but its still an awesome game)

*The harvesters do not collect from Gold/Gems scattered around the map, instead you place a refinery infront of a mine and in and out it goes.
*The boundry only grows bigger if you place an outpost or an mvc to extend it.

Some people would have different opinions.

Review by Lucas on 24th December, 2009
"best rts"
This game has some of the best graphics for a rts game. Finally the AI is challenging (enemy or ally). C & C red alert 3 has a fun fast paced gameplay not like other strategy games which takes hours just to finish 1 game. The acting is not bad with many hollywood actors in it. The campaign story is sort of predictable but still is a great story. Online mode is really fun (although i get owned).

in conclusion I have to say red alert 3 is one of the best strategy games I've played and I recommend you put it on highest graphics. 10/10

"The game rocks"
The game play and interaction with the Hollywood cast makes it very interesting. The traditional skermish is there and selecting from three war efforts, The US, The Russians and the Japanese with all sorts of amazing weapons makes game play really cool. The graphics are what you would expert from the makers of this game, top notch. It is one of those games you keep playing and replaying just to try new strategies and try out new weapons in more interesting ways. Highly recommended.

"Outstanding addition to Red Alert"
After playing the demo I wasn't sure I wanted this game despite loving Red Alert & Red Alert 2. This one takes a bit of getting used to, but is fantastic once you know what your doing.
 
 
Review by John on 23rd July, 2010
"Great, but not exemplory"
Not a huge fan of user reviews so here we go, RE3 is a great game to be sure, but at the end of the day it doesn't do anything to differentiate itself from any other RTS in the genre. So if you're a huge C&C fan, go ahead and give it a whirl but otherwise stick to more top end RTS games
