Destructoid is gaming news, community, videos, and sometimes love. Take the tour or jump in with Facebook:

 



Electronic Arts has released some new trailers for the upcoming PC expansion, Command and Conquer Red Alert 3: Uprising. As expected, it shows off some of the new maps, some of the new units, and clips from the game's over-the-top live-action cut-scenes.

It looks great, and full of action that might catch the attention of gamers who aren't even fans of real-time strategy games. But let's cut through that crap and get to the important stuff: Ric Flair -- who EA hired on to do some in-game acting -- goes "Whoo!" at the one minute and thirty-two second mark. It seems that EA got exactly what they paid for, didn't they?

But even more important, there's a video after the jump of Flair being attacked by someone in a bear costume. I can't make this s**t up, folks -- it's actually happening. Watch it after the jump, because it's going to change your life.

Wow. Epic. I really have to admire EA's marketing of Red Alert.

Plus, Alexander DeLarge FTW!

That bear just made the single biggest mistake of his life!

Because Flair is a limousine ridin', jet flyin', kiss stealin', wheelin' dealin' son of a gun.

To be The Man WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO You gotta beat The Man!

Great to see someone who knows their stuff.

The Four Horseman are gonna gang up on that bear until Flair locks him the figure four.

This is almost weird enough to be Japanese...

Still, kudos to EA for showing that they know what their consumer base wants; pro-wrestlers fighting bears.

My inner twelve year old just marked out watching the second video. I like the marketing for this, quite clever.

It's "Woo" not "Who", people! No "h" sound necessary; with it he'd just sound like an old, flabby owl.

That almost beats out Nic Cage punching a chick while wearing a bear suit in Wicker Man, almost.
