[Mighty BOB!]

The "world exclusive" first Red Alert 3 trailer is up for viewing at Gametrailers.

The engine is looking pretty good and I can only pray that it will be (at the absolute very minimum) as modable as C&C3. Although of course it would be much better if the modability is much better and more in-depth as mod makers will surely want to take advantage of a SAGE engine (well, they call it RNA now that the engine has had a 60% recode) C&C with proper naval support. If the modding support is lackluster I guess I'll have to abandon EA engines and switch to another game like Dawn of War or something.

As for the gameplay itself, I think some things are too cheesy but other things I'm okay with. More on that later as EA reveals more.

----------------------------------

In CnC Source related news, I'm sick of waiting for someone else to make a blue forum theme to replace the IPB theme we've been using for more than a year, which is totally and completely unacceptable. So I'm taking a crack at it myself and so far I'm pretty pleased with what I have. You can't see it of course at the moment, but I'll be making a Work In Progress of it available for public viewing and feedback within the next week or 2 (and then finally of course it will become the default theme.)

The moral of the story is, if you want something done you have to do it yourself.
