Hi there, comrade
With all the changes, the cooperative mode, the new faction... Red Alert 3 is still for all purposes Red Alert, which can be considered the best and worst. Clearly, the study sought to recapture the spirit of the series, rather than evolve it, so although many fans will be happy, they may also feel some disappointment at the sense of stagnation. Perhaps the key thing is that the weight of the co-op is not so much as its enormous potential would indicate. It can be great fun, but in practice and in the context of the game upsets the balance, which may be due to the need to reconcile the single player mode with the cooperative. Riskier projects can make a much more interesting this way opens, yet inclusion in Red Alert 3 is more than welcome. EA LA has created a really fun game with good production values and that will thrill fans of more direct RTS games, but may leave those seeking something more complexity or evolution in the genre cold.

It is not perfect,but a true RTS has got to the PS3.
The campy nature of the cut scenes and the storyline mesh extremely well. The improvements to online play are hampered by the nonsensical invite system.For something that takes advantage of the PS3 hardware to cut down on the slowdown issues, this game doesn't look incredible on the hardware, and the screen tearing is disappointing. The soundtrack, dialogue and effects are excellent. However, constantly having to turn the volume up and down during gameplay to hear things was annoying. Thirty campaign missions versus matches and skirmishes provide a large amount of play, but you have to get over the controls, which would've been better served with mouse and keyboard support. All of the extras from the Premiere edition, plus PS3 centric episodes help. An improved online search function helps with gameplay, but as I said earlier, the invite system really should be easier.
