Every now and then I enjoy some strategic games in the Command & Conquer series, and not long ago Red Alert 3 was released. The idea and gameplay of the game is just like what you’d expected.
The plot is that the Russians as a last desperate attempt to rule the world used a time machine invented by a scientist (played by Peter Stormare, he always plays Russians) to travel back in time to kill Albert Einstein to prevent the atomic bomb to ever get developed and fall in the hands of the Americans. However, when they return to present time, this action changed alot more than they expected, and not necessarily to the better…
The game is OK, but it feels kind of cartoonish (and over-acting in the scenes in campaign mode), something that seems to be popular these days with Battlefield Heroes and all the Lego-games etc. However it’s easy to kill a few hours with this game. Something I would like to see though is a possibility to limit a battlefield to only use ground units, and no super-weapons, in skirmish mode for example, because I think it’s fun to build up a nice planned base and its defenses before launching my own attack.
