Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 vs Command & Conquer: Generals
Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3
Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 is the latest installment of the real-time strategy game franchise, Command & Conquer: Red Alert. Despite the apparently intriguing storyline of a time travel gone awry and the brilliant live-action HD videos, the science fiction-themed narrative is somewhat weak in comparison to the previous titles. However, it's nice that this time around, you get to choose between one of three factions (Allies, Soviets, and the Empire of the Rising Sun, or the Empire for short) to play as rather than having only two. The campaigns are pretty fun as well and the game does have a rather nice co-command feature that links all the campaign missions together.Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 has a really nice take on the alternative world theme and the strategic gameplay is incredible as usual. If you're interested, you can try the game's demo before buying it on Steam.
