Red Alert 3 will be coming to the PlayStation 3 ... eventually photo

This summer EA announced development on the PlayStation 3 version of Command & Conquer 3: Red Alert had been suspended. Knowing full well that PS3 gamers want hot chicks and RTS action like every other person, EA has resumed work on the project. The game’s producer, David Silverman, told VideoGamer the reason why the title was shelved for a period of time and confirmed that the game is “definitely” being worked on.
 
From the interview:

When we announced Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 we announced there was a PS3 version, then we decided to go on the record and say that we've suspended it to make sure that RA3 was able to come out to the level of quality that it must adhere to to be called a C&C game. We've hit that mark, we've shipped the game. And you know what that means? That means there's another version left to be had. So there's definitely people working on a PS3 version and we'll be talking more about that later.
Silverman wouldn’t comment on a release date, but he did say that the PS3 version would take advantage of “both the 1080p nature and the ‘high-defness’ of Blu-Ray...” If EA Los Angeles were to make this move, RA 3 would become the first game on the PS3 to utilize high-definition and the Blu-Ray medium.

I see what you did thar! Not that I can fault the joke, Wipeout HD is the only 1080P game I can think of and it's not on Blu-ray :P

Yai.

I liked how End War worked out without the Mic, so I'm now always ready for some RTS on my PS3.

Haha, that's probably not gonna work very well on a console at all. BFME was not that micro intensive which made it almost playable. Universe at War was a nightmare and RA3 is relatively high on micro as well.

And it runs on old pc's, so errrr... yeah fuck that.

They better allow mouse and keyboard, because I don't even see how it will work otherwise.

I dont have a gaming PC but I've always played RTS games with a mouse and keyboard in the past. I would only get this game on the PS3 if it had mouse and keyboard support.

PS3 has mouse and keyboard support. It would be stupid if they didn't make use of that.
