"Kind of cool." Purchased on Mighty Ape

I bought this because I enjoyed old school C&C on my PC. Alas this game did not live up to my expectations. I found the controls on Xbox frustratingly cumbersome when compared to a mouse on the PC.

The graphics were good and I enjoyed the concept of 3 armies with different skills and units, but the game just didn't deliver with the missions. RA3 is currently sitting on its shelf where it has been for almost a year, because I gave up after getting half way through the missions. It just wasn't engaging, inviting or exciting.

I would rather play Halo Wars.

"Works great and plays fun!"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Having ordered this on the Friday and then to find it delivered Saturday morning meant that nearly my entire weekend was taken up with listening to “As you command” and “My eyes! The goggles do nothing!”. Red Alert at it's best with great graphics, fun gameplay and a great system for getting around using a controller v a mouse. No issue with playing this version on my standard Xbox. Great fun.

Description

US version, playable on all Xbox 360 consoles.

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.
