Anything goes...

I've been a fan of Command & Conquer franchise. Now EA games released their lastest installment: Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3.

Just installed C&C:RA3 hoping my aging pc can cope with requirements of this game. To my surprise the game ran without a glitch, though the settings are all set to low or off. I have a P4 2.8ghz HT, 2gb ram, 256mb palit 7300gt sonic, onboard audio (Realtek HD); (really need to buy a new pc).

I've only played the game (skirmish) for an hour and honestly, I'm confused of the unit and building designs. I've only played the Allied faction, so I can't say about the other faction's units and buildings. The game now has an Ore Mine, which is the source of income in-game, much like Warcraft has a Gold Mine. The game can now be rotated and zoomed in, like C&C:Generals and C&C3.

I like the way C&C uses live actors to brief you on your missions, it feels like you are really in the battlefield.

New faction is added in the game: Empire of the Sun. Really don't know it's strengths and weaknesses, to think of it, I really don't know all the factions strengths and weaknesses. Hmmm, why am I still blogging, got to go back to the game.... =Þ
