Red Alert 3 Viral Videos

Why am I the only one that seems to like, nay, LOVE these videos?

I think the Bombcast guys are completely off on the subject of their humor. I love it when humor is self-aware and fourth-wall-breaking. I think it says a lot about the Red Alert series that EA is confident enough to make fun of their own series this way, in much the same way Blizzard was with their William Shatner/Mr. T/Verne Troyer WoW commercials. In fact, if William Shatner, Mr. T, or Verne Troyer were featured in RA3 (tastefully, of course), I would be even more on board.

I suppose this sort of thing is exactly what I've come to expect from Tim Curry anyway, so this was no surprise to me. And I should add that, like most RTS games, I've never played any of the Command & Conquer series except the first one, and that only long enough for me to determine that it was too old for me to enjoy it (I can only enjoy old games in certain genres, and RTS isn't one of them).

I'm sorry, but I'm not JK Simmons. I'm not badass enough to command you.

Ah, well. Just between us... I'm not Tim Curry, either. Though wouldn't it be special if I were!
