I just got Red Alert 3 for the 360, and it is surprisingly good!

The controls are revamped for console play and very innovative in my opinion. This is a RTS that works well on a console, and after having tried the pc version I am tempted to say that a console player could hold his own against a pc opponent.

If anyone have any questions, feel free to ask.

I highly recommend this game!

I've never played anything in the Red Alert series thus far, I played Warhammer 40k, Battle for Middle Earth, Warcraft 3, and Age of Empires though, is it up to par with those?

It uses a modified version of the battle for middle earth 2 engine. I have only tried the demo of that, but it feels like that one with tighter controls and an incredible setting. This is for the 360 though. The whole campaign is co-op. Prettey rare for a rts I would say. If anyone gets it for 360 I would be happy to play the campaign:)

Thats cool:)

Just keep in mind that it is quite an experience to play a RTS on console. Many people are turned of by the very idea.

But as I said: It works so smooth on the 360 that it could be cross-platform.
