Red alert 3 or Uprising

unfortunately, I have no commentary yet on gameplay, but a major non-gameplay difference is that Uprising was in the EA Humble Bundle, and so it can probably be found at a significantly lower cost

If you want it you can have one of my codes for uprising? Then you can just buy red alert :)

Uprising is a stand alone expansion set after Red Alert 3 in the story. Simple as that.

red alert 3 have Co-op and Multiplayer + a long story + Skirmish , Uprising has New Units (for Skirmish,short campaign),Challenges Mode and a Short Story set after the events of RA3 (no MP-Coop in uprising)

so get the standard game and anyway u can find uprising alot cheaper in Steamtrades as it was in humble origin bundle

Uprising is more of a side story of Red Alert 3. It tells the story of Yuriko(?), the Japanese Telepath.
Red Alert 3 is the main game, that's what you want to get. Uprising is a very short campaign, while RA3 has 3 story lines to play through.

Empire of the Rising Sun, hands down the best faction.

Why not picking up C&C collection on Amazon when it's on sale for about 7 or 8 bucks. You can get all red alert and C&C games for such a low price.

uprising is fun... but has no multi, also it has cool new units.. but still no multi. thats why u should choose ra3 instead

Thanks everyone for dem comments, especially the ones with detailed explanation ;) RA3 is my choice!
