I just got myself a copy of the Red Alert 3: Premier Edition. Don’t ask me why did I get it, even though in the beginning I was really pissed that the Premier Edition standalone is not available in Singapore.
Even though I heard that there was a terribly long queue in the morning, the booth was almost empty at about 1PM afternoon. There was a booth selling the pre-order cards for both editions ($119 and $219), and I ordered the cheaper one.
Installation was a breeze (there was no notification of the DRM in place). The trailer at the beginning was great, but not as impressive as Red Alert 2. I decided to play the tutorial in the beginning. As I played the beta a few months ago, I noticed some improvements in the game. One thing I never checked it out is the new superweapons for the game (no NUKES), which I will check it out later.
One thing I noticed as I proceeded the Soviet campaign was that there was an option to play as a co-op mission and as a single player mission. I’m gonna try out the campaign with my friend later.
More about the game later!
The iPhone is definitely the best cell phone I’ve over owned, really happy I got it!
