Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 - Development

Development

A third Red Alert game was unofficially announced by Electronic Arts' then executive producer and C&C lead Mark Skaggs in December 2004, shortly after the release of The Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle-earth. However, Mark Skaggs left Electronic Arts for reasons unspecified shortly thereafter, and there was no mention of a "Red Alert 3" until February 12, 2008, when the US PC Gamer's April issue cover was published on the Internet featuring the cover story "Red Alert 3". Red Alert 3 was then officially announced by Electronic Arts on February 14, 2008. On May 17 the first trailer was released.

Famous quotes containing the word development:

    “I can see ... only one safe rule for the historian: that he should recognize in the development of human destinies the play of the contingent and the unforeseen.”
    —H.A.L. (Herbert Albert Laurens)

    “And then ... he flung open the door of my compartment, and ushered in “Ma young and lovely lady!” I muttered to myself with some bitterness. “And this is, of course, the opening scene of Vol. I. She is the Heroine. And I am one of those subordinate characters that only turn up when needed for the development of her destiny, and whose final appearance is outside the church, waiting to greet the Happy Pair!””
    —Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    “Men are only as good as their technical development allows them to be.”
    —George Orwell (1903–1950)
