Games Red Alert Series In The

EA is traveling seven years back in time to bring back the most-beloved series in the storied Command Conquer franchise.

The light-hearted, over-the-top, wacky world of Red Alert has returned with Command Conquer Red Alert 3.

Cowering behind the walls of the Kremlin, the Soviets decide to turn to one last act of desperation - the use of an experimental time travel device.

The mission: to go back in time to eliminate Albert Einstein before he creates the technologies that will lead the Allies to ultimate victory.

After a successful mission, the Soviets return to the present, discovering the Allied position has weakened.

But before they can truly celebrate, they find out their actions have spawned a new threat and global superpower, the mysterious, technologically advanced, Empire of the Rising Sun.

Hook up with a friend online to go through the entire experience or choose from a group of AI commanders, each with their own distinct playstyle and personality.

According to the background story, Albert Einstein invents a time machine and kills Adolf Hitler to prevent WWII.

Soviet leader Joseph Stalin, however, launches a full-scale attack with advanced Mammoth tanks, Tesla coils, and V2 rocket launchers.

The Soviets have more powerful infantry, tanks, artillery, aircraft, and defensive towers.

The United States and Western Europe have only a couple strengths: warships and smart units such as medics and mine-layers.

Great music tracks, an excellent control system, good-looking graphics (by mid-90s standards), and superb gameplay make CC: Red Alert a classic.

Former CC fanatics will shed a nostalgic tear after launching this small demo, but first theyll have to make sure they have Windows 9598, since the installer wont run on Windows XP or Windows 2000.

The story takes place in an alternate stream of history, around the time of World War II.

In this version of world history, World War II never happened, and Hitler was nothing more than a minor annoyance.

The real threat here is something hundreds of times worse than Hitler could ever have been: Joseph Stalin.

Towns are falling and countries collapsing before the overwhelming might of the Soviet forces.

Does anyone stand a chance, or will the Red Menace engulf all of Europe New features include improved AI, new game units and structures, a Skirmish mode, and a detailed, interweaving story line.

As a general guide, Download.com (being a CNET publication) is usually cleaner than most sites.

Also, if its been reviewed by an editor, it should be free of viruses or they wouldve realised.

IN this case, this is actually an official release from EAWestwood, so its all good.

I would prefer to be able to march formations, give orders to guard or attack, and to combine units into platoons that react together.

I prefer fantasy games over military games but this was fun anyway.
