- Red Alert had a pretty bonkers story. And since it's alternate history, and was a major influence on me as a kid, I'm gonna talk about it. Pretty badly.

...and their eyes a flaming glow.
If you think about it, this game is actually a kind of existentialist horror. The moment time travel gets invented, the war becomes non-linear in time, meaning it can never truly end because any defeat can be undone, and an attack can be staged at any point in time before or after hostilities have "ended" in any given timeline.
Like 5D Chess.
As far as the 'people' are concerned, I'm fairly sure they wouldn't feel the change. Some are literally unborn while others are entirely altered by history.
What is certain however, is that time will be utterly destroyed once the first jump is made. There will be more time as the future loses its meaning by becoming tangible.
So yeah, you're point is made and I'll add that time travel no matter how small will screw us all.
Theres actually a really crazy and cool game called Achron which integrates time travel into a RTS. You can basically go back in time in the game to move units somewhere if you find yourself getting flanked in the present for example. The game updates temporal changes every few minutes, so you have time to counter any past moves made by your opponent. Its a really fun game thats hampered by poor development of every feature outside of the time travel mechanic, and the difficulty of understanding how it works.
@@pizzaeater8905 checkmate 5 turns ago
There's a book called This Is How You Lose The Time War where the two main characters are combatants on either sides of a war like the one you're describing. It's not a war book so to speak, but the descriptions of the workings of the war effort from both sides are fascinating. Highly reccomended.
1:26 I love how Tim Curry is struggling to keep it together saying that line.
Him and hasselhoff are reasons to actually go through the game
@@Ms.Pronounced_Name For the particular space take... apparently they did do another take or two, but the producers thought it was so hilarious that they put the one where he couldn't keep it together in the game. lol... they knew what kind of game they were making. :D
It still baffles me that with such a comedic and absolutely mad script, they still got a top-shelf cast. But I guess if EA pays enough it sure is a blast to shoot these cutscenes.
Curry is amazing in everything he does! Lets not forget the time he was a crazy trans alien scientist that made me sing lines i would never have sung otherwise as a straight male! 😎 Iam a sweet....

Come on, Tim Curry came back from Red October to become the Soviet Premiere! What more could you ask for?!!!
CnC3 having Kane trick GDI into glassing Eastern Europe which invites an alien invasion
Let's all be honest with ourselves. Red alert 1 split into two timelines based on who won. Allies winning leads to the Red Alert series and the Soviets winning leads to the Tiberium series, with Kane making a cameo at the end of the Soviet Campaign. We can assume he brought Tiberium here and he dies or leaves the planet somehow in the Allies campaign.

The Tiberium games were the first C&C games I played and I remember picking up the case and looking at the back and seeing the list of actors they had. Then I went home and saw the actors they had in the previous games like Red Alert and remember thinking “they really are shelling out money for big time actors to do the cheesiest cutscenes for a game?”
They ruined celebrities in games for me like Kevin Spacey in COD because C&C will always be the most memorable for how cheesy they were but also how much charm they added to the game.

The thing is, unlike the missconception of movies like Back to the Future, a theory about time travel is that, if you change something in the past, you create a complete new paralel universe with the consecuences of those changes. Also that implies that it will be another you on that new paralel universe.

Fun fact, the bald guy in the RA1 cutscenes is supposedly Kane of the regular C&C continuity. So Allies win and the RA timeline keeps going, Soviets win and the C&C Tiberium timeline goes forward (The Tiberium meteor misses Earth in the Allies version I guess)
According to what was going to be the original C&3 (that is, before EA bought Westwood), the Soviet ending is completely non-canon. Both Red Alert 2 and Tiberian Dawn come from an Allied victory in Red Alert (Red Alert 2 is just an alternate timeline, caused by Yuri being flung into the past, not to mention that they are set in the 70s so Tiberium has yet to arrive).
And it does make sense, because in the Soviet ending you have Nod controlling all of Europe through the Soviet Union and thus were the #1 world superpower, whereas in Tiberian Dawn they had to purchase most of their equipment.

@@cabellones im not quite, sure i liked the soap feel of RA2. I think my biggest probelm with RA3 it trys so hard to be a Starcraft game but it failed sooo badly
They won't make a Red Alert 4, because it would involve an Einstein, pissed off at what the world has become, traveling back in time to prevent Hitler's death and mentoring him.
@Egg T That's the plan.
Maybe this time he'll go back in time and just kill Taft so that Teddy can stomp Wilson from winning the election, thus altering the outcome of WW1 enough to prevent Hitler's rise to power.
You know I actually would like a red alert that has allies soviets and Germans.
@@ahmadtarek7763 Red alert 2 you mean?
Now THAT is a setup
One of the first video games I saw was red alert 3. I love the C&C franchise. I love this goofy telling of the red alert story. It certainly is kooky but fun. Also that theme mix on the end card is awesome.
As someone who grew up with Red Alert, loved this
Ahh Red Alert 2 the last game where you have the option to blow up the twin towers.
I clearly remember that mission, it’s the Soviet campaign. You don’t have to destroy them, I just garrisoned them to use for defense. And yes, I played the game after 9/11 though I didn’t connect the dots until years later. Still a cool mission though and really made the pre-9/11 world real for me.
@@waleedkhalid7486 How old were you when you first played it?
@@louisduarte8763 I was 4. Seems closer than it is.
And the pentagon don’t forget.
@Lewis von Feline haha holy fuck
The lore and storyline on this franchise makes as much sense of why Putin invaded Ukraine
Man, i swear, the "Japan is a world power because no nukes duhh" is the funniest plotline ever.
to be fair, japan is basically a world power even after the nukes. the only thing holding them back militarily is because they got traumatized so hard by ww2 that they adopted an almost pacifist military policy
“I'm escaping to the one place that hasn't been corrupted by anime... [holds laughter] *Space!* “
makes sense.

There's Gundam buddy, so you ain't Safe!
anime is everywere
_laughs in Legend of Galactic Heroes_
@@math3000 OH yeah, forgot about that one and also Macross!
We're just gonna completely ignore that Kane was responsible for WWII.
The split of C&C timeline. I dug a lot back then to find the story
I am, the future....commander.
Or that the Japanese figure out the timeline split and have a complete mental crisis
That was the best part and also the part that needed to be forgotten
You had me at "Lou Albano!" (In a related development, I've heard that George Takei pretty much ALWAYS "goes down without a fight!!!")
I don't know what I love more - the content of the video or the fact that you are mad enough to actually make it.
8:48- “pull an endgame of course”
Me: it sounds more like Endgame pulled a Red Alert
Red Alert did it, first.
Aaron Mounts yeah
cause they're has no anthem
@@nichsa8984you dont make sense
Things get weird when you mess with time travel.
I forgot how much I really miss red alert until I heard Tim Curry say "SPACE!"
HIs acting face looks like it was about to crumble under pressure of laughter once he was about to say "SPACE!"..
How about the hidden gem ‘I don’t give a hooting nickel what you think’
Well, lucky as EA decided to play nice. (Wouldn't last long knowing them, but hey last decade this PR boost stunt let the remnants of Westwood pull a Tiberium wars) We got Tiberium Dawn and Red Alert remaster this month and C&C stuff is on Steam not just origin
@@janosd4nuke And as money seems to be the only language they speak, I bought something from EA for the first time in over a decade. Here's to hoping they remaster Tiberian Sun and RA2 as well.
Woffenhorst money is not their language, it’s their drug. They take as much as they can and only give out what they are forced to by their finance department. You are enabling them! You are part of the problem!
As a fan of C&C RA generally, and 3 especially, I enjoyed watching this xD This was beyond enjoyable!
I love your channel keep up the great stuff!
I know I am nearly 2 years late but Soviets, Allieds and Weebs all dancing together to RA3 soviet march remix was clearly best thing I have ever saw in my life
2 year's?
Ok so search up “red alert 3 Soviet March electro” then once you find the video have the speed be at 1.25x speed and then you have the exact same tune as what Cody used in this video
The fact that this channel is slowly becoming a dank, meme infested hole (just like what was long ago Geography Hub) is a strange, but very welcome at the same time.
Bobby Ferg a surprise to be sure, but a welcome one
@commiesarentpeople cringe
@commiesarentpeople cringe
@commiesarentpeople your name is extremely based
@commiesarentpeople It reflects reality.
Very happy a much bigger channel could bring attention to this series ❤️ and said everything better than I could.
Whelp the soviets are invading. Where are the anime mechs.
Some how Red Alert 3's campaign is still better than C&C 4: Doesn't deserve a subtitle
we don't mention THAT thing..
@@zdeadfalloutxx8084 But the video mentioned Rivals. I didn't even know it was POSSIBLE to make a worse game than TT, but apparently EA proved me wrong last year.
@@RRW359 Shhhhh.
we shouldn't mention that one either, Cody made a mistake in talking about *_that_* game.
They may have killed his character, but EA cannot ruin the great prophet! KANE LIVES IN DEATH!
Finn Tadie don't mention that insult to the series, FOR KANE ! DOWN WITH EA !
As crazy as these timelines are, you gotta had it to the creators for their casting. Tim Curry, and J.K. Simmons? Genius. Jenny McCarthy and George Takei? Inspired. Discount Wilford Brimley as the US General? Awesome. Well done, everyone.
I'm blown away by the cast. All perfect for their respective roles. And from a time when you played for the cut scenes as much as the game itself. I'd forgotten that scene with Tanya escaping the interrogation room. She was Red Alrerts Lara Croft.
Gina carano as a soviet guard 😄
I've seen also a wild Abe Vigoda there.
Peter Stormare?
I think they could have done better than Jenny McCarthy in the third one honestly
2:56 yeah, right. It looks like a double mockery now
Yuri being the nostalgia critic is to me the funniest part.
