I'm looking at one of these PC games with some newly acquired Christmas money, so which one should I get? I'm not looking for a multiplayer experience, so don't even factor that into your response. It's all about the fun and cool factors and the single player campaigns. I've played Tiberian Sun, Generals, and Red Alert 2, so I have knowledge of both sides of C&C. I was leaning towards C&C3, but then I watched the retrospective video and realized that Red Alert 3 is also an option...

Red Alert 3. Perhaps you should create a poll.

Both are good games. Depends on what sort of units you want to play with. My personal choice is RA3 as I spent more time playing it. However, I think C&C Generals: Zero Hour is a better game than both.

I prefer C&C3, red alert 3 has a goofy cartoon feel.

RA 3 hands down. It's not that it's a great RTS, but it's pretty unique and fun, on the other hand C&C 3 is death boring, generic, with a monotonous story and lame characters (say what you want about RTSs and story, but the C&C series always had a great story for an RTS).

About multiplayer I don't know, RA 3's community is way more active than C&C 3's was about an year ago.

Red Alert 3. Better in every aspect.

I got both but Red Alert 3 is simply cooler. C&C3 is a bit messy seeming as one unit contains many people if you know what I mean. They are squads instead of a singular person or vehicle which is just kinda annoying. Go for Red Alert 3 mate.
