Red Alert 3

[Gamazson]

You haven't played Red Alert one, have you?

I have! For the gaming time period, still not that serious of game. My issue with Red Alert 3 is how complicated it is. What I always liked about the C&C series is that it was straight up action strategy. Plenty of diferent tactical choices, but at the same time evry easy to manage. I felt that C&C 3 was a good evolution to the series, it had some more complex element but it stayed easy to manage.

RA3 is *****ing ridiculous! For such a fast paced game you have to be thinking way too much about unit composing of both your forces and your enemies. There is no room for error in playing, you have always anticipate you opponent. I suppose this works for the developers "RTS as a Sport" theory, but it alienates causual rts gamers such as myself.

As for DRM, eppy you should still buy some games. Yes EA are pricks, but if you dont buy a developers stuff, they kill the developer. I like Bioware for instance. I have no intrest in seeing EA axe them.
