confusing unit tree, nothing special except for better graphics

it sucks so bad that i am installing RA2

biggest mistake for EA was to fire WestWood and do it themselves

Aye, I played the demo of RA3 and I was sooooooo disappointed it's unreal.

It was just like, awkward, playing that game.

graphics is too cartoony imo. and they kinda went overboard with the craziness of the units.

For a RA game, it is nothing special, can't be compared to RA2. But as a lone game (imagine RA2 doesn't exist) it's quite good.

Lol I have the game. It's..."ok." Better graphics but it really has nothing new to offer - I'd go with Yuri's Revenge over this one tbh. I miss having LAN matches on Yuri's Revenge with all 3 factions XD

I enjoyed it,

The Unit Tree isnt confusing, but damn are the Japanese OP.

Especially in the expansion.

Giga Fortress > Everything

they're pretty weak at the beginning of the match though. so i usually go soviet and send in some sickles to their base.

I also thought it was a bit too cartoony, I liked how RA2 looked, but this went a lil too much.


The actors and actresses were good lol, I thought the campaigns were too short >.<.

RA2 is my alltime favorite RTS so that was hard to beat with the new RA 3.
But I gotta say its a good game. Not as good as RA2 ofcourse but its good.

With the expansion you get a few overpowered units tho like the X1 tanks, you can basically destroy the base of a brutal enemy with bout 5 of them or the giga fortress is also incredibly powerfull but once you set it to fly above land it becomes really vulnerable to anti-air planes but you can solve that with a few mecha tengos :P

I also found the game confusing at first but when I played it a few times got to learn all the hot keys and the good units. Just takes bit more time then RA 2 to get used to, but overall not a bad game. Still better then all other modern RTS games I've played.
