You Can Compare From Just The Pictures I Think. Sex Has Always Been A Theme In Movies & Games. It All Depends On How Far The Writers/Directors/Marketting Dudes Move That Theme To The Center. In Red Alert, There Was Stalin & Nadia Doing Something Together. LOL. But OfCourse, That Was Not Used To Sell The Game. But As Time Goes On, Movie/Game Makers Have Pushed The Theme Of Sex More To The Center Of Attention. However, I Do Agree With You That They Are Focusing Too Much On The Women...Especially In RA3. EDIT: It's Even Worse Now Due To Japanese Babes. I Am Looking Forward To RA3 ONLY To Play As Soviets...Nothing Else. Otherwise, The Game Seems Like A Lot Of Fantasy Units Clogged Together. I Do Hope They Make The Storyline Longer.

description: The movies in Westwood's games sucked too. Just because they pioneered FMVs into C&C, doesn't mean that they were good at it.. As but I'm not complaining about the quality. If you want my personal opinion on it, the FMVs that EA put into the recent C&C games are much better than the FMVs in the old C&Cs for the simple reason that technology to do such things is now available when it wasn't back then. I don't prefer any FMVs over others through the different games because as long as they get the point across (correctly) and don't screw up the mood of the story, it is perfectly fine. Who plays what part and how they look compared to how they act doesn't concern me unless it is obvious they are not in character or barely acting at all.

description: That's not what I meant. RA3 continues the storyline and has some of the same characters from RA2 like Tanya, Einstein and some others. What I am saying is that some actors brought in to fill the roles of these RA universe characters are not fulfilling. Maybe my perception will change as I play through the game but I am not liking the initial scenes I am seeing. FYI, I like C&C3 movies. EDIT: And lets not forget the crapload of female heroines they have brought in for each faction. Why should there be a Soviet heroine rather than some bear-like guy like Boris? Should they feminize everything?

What I am saying is that some actors brought in to fill the roles of these RA universe characters are not fulfilling. Well the Red Alert universe revolves around the use of a Time machine. The only character that really remains consistent throughout the entire series is Einstein. Tanya isn't a specific person. She is just a special agent code-named Tanya. That's why it makes sense for her to be played by a different actor. Over all, I think the cast is excellent. And from what I saw in the FMV trailer, they are going to be very high quality videos.

Public reaction has been swift and sharp, fueled by a grassroots campaign[6] to flood Spore's comments page on Amazon.com with one star reviews (the lowest possible rating). As of September 12th, 2008, there were 2,202 reviews (91% of all reviews) with a single star out of five rating. A vast majority of these comments cite SecuROM as the main reason for the low rating. Amazon Listing Ownt.

Doesn't look like you understand how this works. With the DRM EA's throwing on there, it may become necessary to crack your game. You may be thinking "Well, if you bought it, why would you have to crack it?" Well, it's not that simple. With the DRM there are all sorts of ways you can get screwed out of playing a game that you've legally bought. Say you've already used up your 5 installs, and EA refuses to grant you anymore authentications for whatever reason. You've just rented the game for $50. You can just forget about it or crack it so you can play the game. It's pretty much all the same thing for any sort of DRM, not just SecuROM. They're just punishing those who are following the law while those who pirate the software simply have a better product for the very attractive price of free.

With the DRM there are all sorts of ways you can get screwed out of playing a game that you've legally bought. Say you've already used up your 5 installs, and EA refuses to grant you anymore authentications for whatever reason. You've just rented the game for $50. You can just forget about it or crack it so you can play the game. It's pretty much all the same thing for any sort of DRM, not just SecuROM. They're just punishing those who are following the law while those who pirate the software simply have a better product for the very attractive price of free. Then Its A Deal Somebody Needs To Crack The Game And Host The Download Link It Can Work I Think.

The game just isn't going to be good enough to justify the hassle of cracking SecuROM. May come as a shok to you. Why not BUY it? I mean. ARMORED POLAR BEARS. Damm I need this game. Bear cavalry online. Welcome back commander. That's funny- I can't recall having said anything about not buying games. Your mastery of the language is so very impressive, isn't it? Let me clarify: I do not pirate games, I buy them. I do, however, download and use cracks to bypass shitty DRM so that I'm not paying $60 for some half-assed phone-home security software to fuck up my $2500 computer. SecuROM is just about the most invasive DRM out there, so any game "protected" by it does not get installed on my computer until there is a proven-reliable crack to bypass it. RA3 will be a decent game at best, and I don't consider it worth the trouble (since it can sometimes take a fair bit of searching and fiddling around to un-DRM a game) when I could spend the same $60 on a great game with less obnoxious copy protection. Get the picture?

Once they see you reinstalled the same serial/key on the same comp, they will give back the install limit back. or something like that... but the this whole DRM looks a bit farstretched http://forums.ea.com/mboards/thread.jspa?threadID=430797&start=0&tstart= 0

I think RA3 will be a brilliant game and, now I think of it, I should go and pre-order it from somewhere. I've also been playing Spore for a week with no problems, and that's an epically awesome game too. I hate it that people are giving the whole game bad review just because of the DRM.

EA didn't really screw up RA2, it was (in terms of gameplay) one of the best C&C's so far. Don't even get me started on the modability. I'm working on like 2 mods for it as we speak, and when exactly did this game come out? RA3 is shaping up to be an incredible game. I've played the beta a ton, it truly is probably the most fun experience of any C&C I've played. However, I have principles, and truly the DRM is a showstopper for me. Perhaps sometime in the future I might get over it, but for now it doesn't seem likely.

I still have a number of questions about the game that I'd like answered- even though I have no intention of buying it. However, it looks like the same RTS formula that's become so dominant in the genre- lots of special units, lots of superweapons, lots of rushing. Lather, rinse, repeat. Not my idea of a good time.

True enough, but lots of people can agree on certain fundamentals at least with RA2. It was a revolutionary game, to say the least. I see where you're coming from too with RA3, but I have to say you need to try it first. I had the same doubts you've said before I played it but playing it completely changed my opinion.

Agreed. EA is notorious for grabbing popular and unique game series and turning them into clones that they release and re-release each year with a new name. Need for Speed series for example. But you gotta admit that the C&C games have great replay value...in other words, you never really get bored. Replay value is something I really look at when buying a game. But for any C&C game, of course, I buy it right away...thats a given. I like the skirmish options in C&C3 for example with the different types of AI. Lots of replay fun there. You can never really get bored...lots of features to play with. u6795 wrote on Sun, 14 September 2008 18:03 NukeIt15 wrote on Sun, 14 September 2008 14:23 Keep in mind that your version of "fun" doesn't necessarily equate to anyone else's.

The FMV's are mainly awesome, the soundtrack is rawking, and fully co-op missions are one of the best ideas ever. Some flaws are present obviously, but while I'm still finding it fun to play they're negligible.
