Oh yeah, I'm down with it; back when RA1 came out in highschool, people used to hack even more ridiculous stuff into it (like guard dogs that pinned infantry down and instead of 'biting', fired flamethrowers) and that was the big draw for them over the more 'normal' CnC. I've got no issue at all with that stuff, and the special attack magnet gun from space sounds awesome.
The Allied combat helicopter has a shrink ray. I don't know what sort of utility this would have, but it's pure mad science.
Three awesome utilities: it makes the shrinked vehicles crushable (including Apocalypse tanks) it reduces their firepower, and most importantly of all, it gives them squeaky chipmunk voices.
They very first thing I'm going to do with this game is capture Imperial and Soviet facilities just so I can crank out units to shrink and hear their voices.
The shrink ray seems to make things move faster, and wears off after a while, right? You could shrink your own units and then rush the enemy. Time it right and you've moved your units into their base just as they revert to normal size.

Basically some little presidential campaign spoofs/game ads that i found hilarious, specially funny cause I think I know a few republicans who would vote for him right away.
Even funnier was that when i saw it the Youtube ad was for the Republican National Convention, LOL.
Agreed, that's possibly the greatest party symbol ever.
On a related note, anyone else notice all the videos of RA3 characters commenting on various other videos? It seems like it could draw a lot of attention, especially if they're video responses to really popular videos.
