I have this. Actually, I was saving for Mirror's Edge but apparently the pc release was moved to January so I bought this one instead.

It's a good game, much like tiberium wars. Excellent (and sometimes funny) cutscenes with great actors/actresses. Battles at sea takes a big part now since pretty much all units are amphibious. Most buildings can even be placed on water! All units also have a secondary attack now, like the attack dog, you can use his ability to howl and stun nearby infantry so that he can eat them all (or not). Campaigns are pretty much fun now since they added a cooperative mode which you can go online, connect to gamespy or something, or just have the AI help you on missions. The Japanese are also a nice addition to the battling forces.

Apparently the gameplay was halfbaked, the units' pathfinding is horrendous. If you order them to point b from point a and there's a wall between, they won't try to find the nearest pathway, but instead they just push their luck to break the indestructible wall to go through it. Resource gathering is also 1:1 now, meaning 1 gold mine = 1 miner. They removed the gem collecting and replaced it with a goldmine which is much like in Warcraft 3. And also, many units in RA2 never made it in RA3, prism tanks, chrono legion, desolators (my fave), crazy ivans, etc.

And oh, all commandos are female. Cheesy

Damn, I forgot to answer the question if this is as good as RA1/2.

No, I still think that RA2 is the best Red Alert.

Altus/Gatcho: Thanks for sharing your views. I do have the game already but haven't tried it. Hopefully they fix the AI issues its having.

Thanks all....

Anyone else care to share their view on this game?

i tried playing the game a few minutes ago ... and yung graphics ang medyo unang napansin ko na hindi ka-gandahan. mas maganda pa ang tiberium wars not only graphics wise pero performance wise din. although i don't have the fastest comp available ... pero sa tiberium eh nakakapag-FSAA 2x pa ako at high settings. dito, High settings lang no FSAA eh slideshow na nakukuha ko ... same results kahit pa mag-disable na ako ng shadow at i-set sa medium yung ibang settings.

i'm hoping na mabawi ng gameplay yung issues sa looks/performance. i'll try again tom
