The actors are having fun with how camp and silly it is - it's no wonder part of Tim Curry's performance has become a meme in recent years. The minor celebrity-laden full-motion video story screens have just enough of a high production value to be convincing at a high resolution while remaining just crap-looking enough to evoke the wobbly-set nature of the original games. Red Alert 3, in particular, is clearly a studio that has come to grips with the franchise that it has inherited having a lot of fun. Red Alert's third entry was the most traditional, more of a direct continuation of ideas from the first four games.Īll of these games are bloody great in their own way.

The Tiberian series continued by borrowing more ideas from other RTS franchises, adding a greater scale to battles with units made up of entire squads of soldiers. Generals took the series in an all-new direction with a slightly more grounded, real-world style setting. In fact, while Westwood's C&C evolved along one path for those first four games and multiple expansion packs, EA's C&C split into three distinct directions.

And while this was met with anger and distaste by some fans, EA LA produced some all-time classic C&C titles. C&C transferred to other teams, primarily one within EA Los Angeles. Quite famously, in the wake of Red Alert 2 C&C developer Westwood was essentially killed by a variety of circumstances, another studio thrown onto the scrapheap by EA.

And, to be fair, it is - but everything after that isn't so bad, either. The main thing fans are already screaming for after the Remastered Collection is for a second round - a Remastered Collection 2 that pulls together C&C Tiberian Sun and Red Alert 2 - the latter of which is widely considered to be one of the best RTS titles of all time.
