Red Thursday

The official RA3 announcement video is up on the the official CNC website, announcing this day as Red Thursday. Here's part of the official press release:

After seven years, Red Alert returns! After a time travel mission goes awry, a new superpower has been thrust onto the world stage and World War III is raging. The Empire of the Rising Sun has risen in the East, making WW III a three-way struggle between the Soviets, the Allies, and the Empire with armies fielding wacky and wonderful weapons and technologies such as Tesla coils, heavily armed War Blimps, teleportation, armored bears, intelligent dolphins, floating island fortresses, and transforming tanks.

Whilst news of RA3 is spreading like wildfire, EA has presented us with another awesome gift. Take a walk down memory lane on this website where you can see the movies and cut-scenese that made CNC what it is today! Go over to http://www.ea.com/cncmovies
