Broken Base: Many people find the static ore nodes disappointing and makes it too easy for players to camp. Others are absolutely relieved that they don't have to deal with Artificial Stupidity when it comes to resource gathering, allowing them to focus more on combat. This extends to the tone and gameplay changes compared to Red Alert 2.
Frank Klepacki returned to make Hell March 3, and a handful of other tracks.
The battle themes are all pretty great, but the Uprising theme for the Empire is pretty damn awesome, as seen here.
Designated Hero: The Allies. Their sociopathic attitudes are very obvious in spite of the game trying to portray them as "good".
Evil Is Sexy: Natasha, Dasha, and Zhana, as well as Suki and Takara. Arguably, Tanya herself too. There is not an unattractive female throughout this whole game. Even the poster illustrations of Yuriko play to the Japanese short-shirted schoolgirl fetish. Most of the Female characters have pin-up pictures.
Ham and Cheese: Just about all of the actors. You can tell, however, that this is exactly what the developers wanted: a bunch of well-known (though hardly A-List) actors competitively hamming it up and Chewing the Scenery to add to the already absurd levels of Camp. The result, as intended, is a game that leaves you laughing your head off even as you mow down thousands.
Unfortunate Implications: Tanya's gone from being a brunette to a blondie for this game. Couple this with the fact that all units have occasional to frequent problems with pathfinding and even obeying the simple order of shooting something...
Vindicated by History: Many regard Red Alert 3 as the best EA-developed Command & Conquer game after the debacle that was Tiberian Twilight.
What an Idiot!: Cherdenko attempts to escape to the only place that hasn't been corrupted by capitalism! SPACE!
