Is it me or is it a generalization that deadly female Soviets tend to go by the moniker Natasha? Anyways, Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 is in the works and will be released sometime in the near future, featuring Natasha who not only looks good but is capable of offing you with an icy cold stare. Taking on the tradition of the Command & Conquer series, you can expect some B-grade acting in the videos that lend to an air of authenticity of a future Cold War era to the entire game.

The role of Natasha will be played by EliteXC fighter and American Gladiator Gina Carano, dressed up to literally kill. What do you think of live acting as short video clips in games? Do you think they add to the entire overall experience, or will it detract from gameplay? I personally prefer in-game renderings such as the Metal Gear Solid series, as the transition from real actors to polygons won’t be as abrupt and distracting. Still, to each his/her own. For fans of Natasha, she won’t only appear in the flesh on the screen, but in high definition as well. To top it all off, she will even by a playable unit in the game, ensuring one shot kills against standard human units just like the old female commando found in the original Command & Conquer.

Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 will be released sometime this summer, so make sure that your PC’s specifications are up to par if you want to partake in the latest outing of this outstanding RTS franchise.
