The April 2008 issue of PC Gamer has a cover story on the long-rumored Commander & Conquer: Red Alert 3. Interestingly, the magazine mentions that readers will be able to partake in some sort of contest to secure a spot in the RA3 beta.

If you can’t understand the excitement here, the Red Alert franchise is widely regarded by many fans as the pinnacle of the Commander & Conquer series, and as one of the better RTS titles out there. The mag hits newsstands March 4, so keep your eyes peeled.
