I lost at domination?! How could this happen to me?

Only if they tie it back into the C&C storyline…

WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO KANE?! HE WAS IN RED ALERT 1!!!

Also, they’ll have to explain the mind-controlled bears, or rather their absence in C&C1 (along with all of the other psychic ****).

They should have made Red Alert 2 a different series, since I like the others and think RA2 “kinda sucked” as well as looked “kinda cartoony” compared to the originals. The originals were mainly for hardcore RTS fans, but I dunno what crowd they were aiming at with RA2 – nearly everyone I’ve met who likes it either hasn’t played the originals or aren’t fans.

RA2 & RA3 are more like comic book versions of C&C. Supervillains with mind control trying to take over the world as opposed to militant factions?

RA2 had a lot more units/items that were like “That makes no sense whatsoever, but why the hell not?” Like tank bunkers, infantry grinders, mind-controlled animals, slow-moving yet somehow armored (and still flying!) blimps.

But I still think what bothers me the most is that it fails to tie in to any of the C&C games (including RA1).

EDIT: You probably will like RA3. Hardcore C&C fans have C&C3 to play (and maybe Generals 2 in the future).

That’s what made RA2 fun, not the same thing over and over again, it was full of creativity and Generals was full of…. the same stuff, some nice things, but exactly what you would expect, and almost no storyline. And since most of the Command & Conquer fan think RA2 is the best in the series I think that people agree with me. Generals was way too slow and had (almost) no cutscenes. C&C3 is nice, still play it a lot but I still think RA2 is way better.

Yeah, RA2 was like out of a sci-fi movie but still retained realisim via cutscenes and the like. Generals was real from the start, almost too real. It was sooo slow. I mean, the tanks were like drunk compared to RA2 and it takes forever to capture a building. Even the music reflected this. Sure. you can speed up the game, but after a while, it hangs Log in to see images! , and the whole Generals almost felt like Warcraft to me when I started playing. And the story…wait, what story? The dull terrorist-ish one? Screw that, I’d watch an investigation of 9/11 on National Geographic instead.

Now about RA3, There are 2 questions in my head: “How good is the music?” and “Have they returned the sidebar?”
