    This is a game that i feel if they had taken a little more time to make it it would have come out near perfect. As it stands its still a very fun game but you can see all the areas in the game that could have used more work. I just hope in the future if they make a red alert 4 that they spend the time to make it great instead of just ok.

I got five missions in and realized I had no idea what's going on or how to play. The story is an absolute travesty. The cut scenes are basically there so you can go get a beer before the next mission. If there's a war going on I'd like to know just what the heck we're doing to win it. It sure doesn't seem like a war is going on. The units all feel like toys or cartoons, everything feels borderline racist, and you think that might come out really well at first, but it ends up being dopey. They "blended naval combat seamlessly into the game" by making it hardly distinguishable from land combat. It feels like everyone's got little rafts. The maps are claustrophobic, water does not act as any sort of distinguishable barrier, its not clear what units can move across water and which can't, the unit abilities are unfocused and take two brains and three hands for a human player to use, and the Russian commando unit is a girl. And, no, its not cool to command an army of trained bears. They die really really fast and you lose. The blimps are tiny, the resource gathering mechanic feels mindless and tacked on,everything about the aircraft is annoying and worst of all the companion AI's are just an awful addition. They take up your resources and fight your battles for you. That may sound okay, but trust me, you don't know how much you enjoyed being in control of your own forces until half of them are at the AIs disposal. You don't decide when and where to crush the enemy, he does. The best thing you companion can possibly do is die. The happiest thing that ever happened to me in a mission was seeing my companion die and taking over his resources.

    I cannot tell you how much I loved Red Alert 2. It was my first RTS. I played every C&C game after that. Even the really old kinda crappy ones. After Tiberium Wars, I was optimistic. I thought maybe EA would not take a crap all over the C&C franchise, I thought things might work out. I was WRONG. I honestly can't think of anything good to say about this game. I liked part of the opening. I didn't like it enough to give it a "1" but hey that's something I guess.    … Expand

    It's tempting to bash this game just because it's an EA product, the C&C franchise was at it's best when under the wing of Westwood studios, there's still some life in the old dog yet but somehow the old magic seems to be missing from more recent releases.

This holds true for the latest offering - Red Alert 3, it isn't a total disaster however - it's quite a fun game in many respects and it's certainly very highly polished ( like the majority of EA products). The cut scenes are quite entertaining, the graphics are all very well done, it seems pretty much bug free and stable (unlike a few recent releases I could mention), in terms of atmosphere and presentation this game feels very much like it's predecessors ( especially RA2 ), the new faction - The Empire Of The Rising Sun fits in quite nicely and has some interesting units . Having said all this there are some issues, quite big ones at that, whilst EA have done a good job of making this look and feel like a C&C game they seem to have really dropped the ball in the game balance department . For starters the resource system seems to have been dumbed down quite a bit and it's a move away from the more traditional C&C resource model, also the resources just seem to trickle in at quite a slow rate ( at least in the single player campaign , I can't comment on the rest ) meaning that once you have depleted your initial reserves the game really starts to bog down no matter how many refineries you have. This brings me on to my second gripe, the units seem way too weak and puny - whole armies can be flattened in the blink of an eye and considering they can take quite a long time to assemble this can lead to a very unbalanced gameplay experience . It's also not a particularly original game, the co-op mode was about it's only innovation and it feels like something we should have had years ago, not that every game needs to be new and original of course, especially with an established franchise ( there are certian elements that long term fans will demand to see included which narrows the scope for innovation) . I found the singleplayer campaign compelling and fun to play through but the strange game balance decisions made by the developers make skirmish and multiplayer (apart from maybe co-op mode) seem less appealing . All in all I think I got my money's worth but now that I've played through the single player campaign I won't be coming back to this game anytime soon .… Expand

    A disappointment for Command & Conquer fans, as EA steers the CnC franchise into the mainstream arcade area to pickup new customers. The game looks pretty, the cutscenes are true to the series, but for gameplay and every other aspect, I'll stick with older titles.

    The game mechanics and level design are the usual top notch standard, the FMV... Well, here's where it gets a bit weird. The FMV is a cross between nuts models in tiny outfits and high grad British old Actors like Jonathan Pryce and Tim Curry. It does feel a bit mysoginistic and exploitative, but if you can get past that you have a great game here.

    Red alert 3 in my mind was fantastic and really funny. the rising sun was quite unexpected however made the experience quite enjoyable. The units were also very nice, the graphics were cool and best of all the co-op mode which was a good move in the right direction. Not as good as some of the old originals but never the less an enjoyable game to play

    Finally the cnc franchise has a game that has the missing piece of the RTS formula: strategy. In the past every cnc game, although creative and flashy, was stale and lacked deep game play mechanics. EA seemed to fix all that and still gave ra3 that creative and flashy charm. It...good game

    While it's still a good game, it fails to live up to its expectations after Red Alert 2. The graphics looks almost cartoony or team fortress 2-esque. The story is silly and a little stupid, but still playable. The gameplay itself is solid, but once again, it fails to live up to expectations.

    Most of the hate is just from RA2 elitists that couldn't get into the games because it was too cartoonish or too micro heavy. RA3 is a fantastic game that fully embraces the goofy side of the Red alert universe. RA1 was serious, RA2 was indecisive if it wanted to be serious or goofy, and RA3 fully accepted what it meant to be.

    Of all the frequent red alerts, I have the most inappropriate attitude towards this. Cranberries in the game has become prohibitive. The company itself was as boring as possible. It seems that they added a new side to the conflict, but somehow there was no desire to go into the multiplayer once again.

Но главной фишкой игры - это, пожалуй, является прохождение всей компании с товарищем, который тоже не проч часок другой по голове американцам настучать бок о бок с вами:) У игры я особо изъянов так и не нашел и до сих пор не понимаю чего люди так яро хейтят данную часть.… Expand

    Раньше нравилась эта игра, на момент оценки (конец 2021 года) играется совсем плохо.
    Синематики топ, не знаю что еще и сказать. Пройдите еще раз Warcraft 3.

    Just text (crutch) to save the game to the list. Such things. Maybe I'll do a review later.

    Any game in which a giant laser cannon pops out of Teddy Roosevelt's head on Mt. Rushmore is a winner in my book...Red Alert 3 is a highly polished game that doesn't take itself the least bit seriously, and co-op play might jus be the next big thing in RTS. [Holiday 2008, p.62]

    Red Alert 3 is by no means a bad addition to the Red Alert series, but compared to its forebears it lacks much of the panache the series held and may hold some disappointments for fans despite the addition of a good new faction and a fairly satisfying single-player experience.

    What was a tongue-in-cheek look at Cold War paranoia married to solid RTS gameplay has blossomed into a pure comedy that retains the easy-to-pick-up and addictive-as-peanuts gameplay of the best in the Command & Conquer franchise. It's not a game that will redefine strategy gaming, but it is one heck of an enjoyable ride.
