Avis des critiques et joueurs
Critiques de la Presse (Metacritic)
« Any game in which a giant laser cannon pops out of Teddy Roosevelt's head on Mt. Rushmore is a winner in my book...Red Alert 3 is a highly polished game that doesn't take itself the least bit seriously, and co-op play might jus be the next big thing in RTS. [Holiday 2008, p.62] »
« Red Alert 3 seems to have been designed entirely by Internet geeks, as hilarious Easter eggs abound. I won't ruin them for you, but I will say that at the end of one campaign, you'll witness the greatest, most unexpected cameo in videogame history. »
« If you like the Command and Conquer series Red Alert 3 is a must buy. If you are new to real time strategy games this one might be a bit more daunting for some player then they may like, but the tutorial and the rest of the game make it a must buy as well. »
« Red Alert now unites more than ever before black humor, irony, salaciousness and pure realtime-strategy in one game - first of all the online coop-mode and the easy start into the game as well as the great video cutscenes can convince. »
« The game is bright, fun, fast, and runs on modest systems surprisingly well. And surprisingly bug-free for something out of the EA stable. Have things really improved in the Quality Control Dept at EA? Lets hope so, because with most EA titles, it’s the bugs that hold them back, not the gameplay. »
« As far as strategy games go Command & Conquer Red Alert 3 is the current cream of the crop. The three separate campaigns provide over 15 hours worth of game play not counting the endless skirmishes and multiplayer matches available. »
« Novel rules, bizarre units and a twisted design style carry this venerable series to the new heights of glory, previously unattainable. The special abilities that can markedly change the role that any unit plays on the battlefield add a layer of goodness to the whole experience. [Dec 2008] »
« In conclusion, Red Alert 3 is a true 21st century remake of the RTS genre that features a healthy dose of humour which may be over the top but it actually suits the genre perfectly. »

« Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3, çocukluğumun oyunudur. Soviet Union Comrade 🫡 »
« I really like the gameplay, when i can get to it because half of it is watching it crash, absolute banger **** »
« Ну это база, те же генералы, только уникальный сеттинг, дохуя абилок, ну и топовые катсцены, игра просто легендарная! »
« Competent execution, decent mechanics, but doesn’t quite hit the mark. Can be a bit dull occasionally, but, overall, worth a try. »
« I recently revisited this Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 and am pleasantly surprised at just how well the game has aged. The story and lore are just as deep and thorough as I remember and the campy, and sometimes hammy, performances of the real-life actors in the cut scenes still feels right at home with A-list actors shoved into a gloriously low-budget production. While Generals and the Tiberian series still rank higher in my book, this comes in right after them while being among my top 5 RTS of all time. »
« [SPOILER ALERT: This review contains spoilers.] »
« Just text (crutch) to save the game to the list. Such things. Maybe I'll do a review later. »
« Отличная игра, в которую с кайфом играть спустя много лет, однозначно рекомендую всем любителя РТС »
