Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 makes the fourth RTS release on the 360 system courtesy of the EA Los Angeles studio. After Lord of the Rings, EA released Command & Conquer 3, followed by its expansion pack: Kane’s Wrath. And for the most part, they should be pleased with how Red Alert 3 turned out.ĮA tested the RTS waters on the 360 with The Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle-earth II, and ever since then, they’ve continued to release RTS games with controls that continue to improve. Red Alert 2 was definitely one of the highlights of the series, a game that was released over eight years ago – so fans have definitely been anticipating this sequel for a while. Hard to believe that it’s stayed relevant for this long but it’s a beloved Real Time Strategy (RTS) game series that has quite the fan following due to its combination of over the top campy acting with B-list actors and entertaining strategic gameplay. The Command & Conquer franchise has been around for over a decade now. – the shoddy AI partner if you’re playing campaign levels on Hard difficulty – somewhat of a barebones multiplayer with only 4 player support and no team matchmaking – still cumbersome to play optimally without a keyboard and mouse – skirmish mode and multiplayer extend game length even further – campy/amusing cutscenes, stars, and units – lengthy and enjoyable campaign with co-op support If you’re open to the idea, or even looking for one with a lengthy campaign after discovering how short the Halo Wars campaign was, you should definitely give Red Alert 3 a shot.Ĭmfl3x will also contribute his thoughts on the game to the review. For the most part, the game is enjoyable, but of course that depends on how you feel about a real time strategy game being played with a controller. That, plus 27 campaign missions is a pretty lengthy amount of time for a game, and we definitely got more than enough game length just from the campaign to justify the title’s price. Well, it’s a little of both, as cmfl3x and I decided to play through all 27 campaign missions on co-op together and were only able to continue in progress when both of us were available and had the time to do so. Either we’re incredibly slow gamers, or the game is just that lengthy. While the PC version of Red Alert 3 is superior, it’s still enjoyable on the 360.Ĭmfl3x and I have been playing this game on and off for the past two months, and it’s only now that I can finally put out a review.
