But Red Alert 3 really isn't that different from Command & Conquer 3, or Red Alert 2 for that matter. Sure, the vehicles and units have been shaken up a bit (including the bizarre War Bear addition for the Soviets), and Japan has been added to the roster of competitive powers. what Red Alert 3 is really missing is something new.

As in previous editions of Red Alert, this latest version pits the Soviet Union against the Allies and manages to pack time travel, nuclear weapons and a hilariously high-camp series of performances into its 7-minute introductory movie.
