GameShark: E3 08: C&C Red Alert 3 Preview

It's been seven years since EA touched the alternate timeline of Red Alert, a world of time machines, zeppelins and robot bears. But Cold War chic never really goes out of style. The Soviets, smarting from their defeat at Allied hands, go back in time to eliminate the cause of all their problems – Albert Einstein. But the world that results has a new player – the Empire of the Rising Sun, a Japanese themed nation with transforming mechs and a unique build mechanic.

The Rising Sun spawns drones that can transform into the chosen building, and they can unwrap themselves without concern for territorial control or outposts. This is balanced by the fragility of the drones, but the potential for behind-the-lines mayhem is strong. Some units have dual forms, each one with a strength and a weakness. The Tengu mechs can transform from durable ground units to jet fighters with the click of a button.

Top 10 Worst Video Game Sequels

Alex S. from Link-Cable writes: "A while ago we counted down the very best video game sequels of all time and so we decided to flip the table and look at the very worst sequels ever made. Now we’re not specifically looking at bad sequels to bad games, that would be boring, instead we’re looking at sequels that took what was present in a good game and completely wrecked it. These 10 games started out by building up our hype to extreme levels only to shatter our dreams and break out hearts once we got our hands on them and so we’re calling these out as the worst sequels ever made."

Dragon age 2 was not a bad game, just a terrible sequel if that makes any sense. Should have been it's own IP.

I loved Dragon Age II. I even got the platinum trophy for it. That was the very first medieval themed fantasy RPG that I enjoyed aside from an Ultima game I played in the early 90's at a cousins house.

Not that it was a bad game, just not a fair successor to DAO.

NapalmSanctuary2253d ago

Surely Twisted Metal 3&4 have earned a place on this list.

Lord of Shadows 2 was one that left me scratching my head because I loved the first one! Red Faction Armageddon was another one that I still wonder why they didn't just give us something more like Guerrilla.

Halo Wars 2 and 5 Strategy Games for Console That Also Weren't Rubbish

OX writes: "Halo Wars 2 is a Halo game in which instead of controlling one big space soldier, you control lots of little space soldiers from high above the battlefield.
