Macworld Review: Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3

Armored attack bears. Time traveling Russians. Sarcastic female commandos. Yes, the mirthfully bizarre and chronologically perplexing Command & Conquer: Red Alert series is back. Recently released for the Mac, Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 is the latest installment in the satirical science fiction/alternative history real-time strategy series.

For those unfamiliar with the Command & Conquer series, the first Red Alert game explored what would have happened if Einstein went back in time and killed Hitler before he rose to power. While Germany never militarized, the Soviet Union became more aggressive and threatened world domination.
