Man Raised by Puffins tells us there’s a Stalin Vs. Martians trailer. There is. It’s beneath the cut.
Gosh.
I’ve gone well past the point where I care whether it’s any good or not. It doesn’t matter.

Other than a comatose framerate, the game looks quite entertaining. Stalin’s got moves
report
…
report
Wow.
report
Now… this one contains more in-game images that others teaser videos. I would download a demo of this game if contais this very music. ( The original command conquer let you choose what music to play, I hope we are not going downhill in the RTS genre)
report
I’m coming to your house…
SOON
report
I know what I want and I want it… NOW!
( Awesome trailer, amazing creatures, I hope the clumsy framerate was an attempt to synch it with the music though. )
report
Incredible.
report
Springtime for Stalin.
report
I’m going to try some of those moves out next time I hit the club.
report
That made me silently giggle like an idiot on a late Saturday morning. Everything about that was hilarious. I bet real Stalin wouldn’t like that oneeee bit!
report
Wat?
report
Pushing the envelope
report
Russian big shots really like to dance, right?
report
Stalin’s Gulag Dance Party!
report
Am I still asleep?
report
I want to play it, I really do, but I can’t. I feel genuinely bad for passing on what will no doubt be an outstanding gaming experience (based on the number and degree of positive reactions I’ve encountered), particuarly as it’s a game in danger of being overlooked, due to the other, excellent, more widely known RTS’s being released at the same time.
I even have a great deal of interest in the time period (I’m clearly not alone, or even unique in that), and reguarly read some of the more interesting commentary and other factual writings on the subject.
That all doesn’t matter though. I just…can’t. Not another WW2 Stalinist Martian game.
report
This is the most beautiful thing ever.
The game better have its cutscenes/mission briefings/whatever in a similar style.
report
…I think I might as well just apologise for writing the original version of that comment. I seem to have unintentionally, really annoyed some people.
report
Stalin is awesome.
report
1:08 is most incredible. I never knew Stalin had it in him.
What a fox.
report
I usually don’t comment in here (don’t ask why, I don’t know either), but this time I had to do it because Stalin rocked my world! :P
Besides that… the game looks kinda lame :\
report
Dance Dance Revolution!
report
my testicles tremble with anticipation
report
what a crying shame
both the looks and the concept
report
Now this is a good trailer :D
report
Stalin was a fun guy to just hang around with.
report
One the most epic trailers I’ve ever seen.
report
Oh my.
report
The chances of anything coming from Mars are a million to one.
report
Man this trailer brings in a whole new level of weirdness and awesomeness combined.
report
I think I dreamed this last night.
report
“Ula!”?
report
command and conquer on mescaline?
report
Everyone thought that. Everyone but Stalin, that is.
ALL BOW TO THE DANCING SAVIOR!
report
“There will come a time when my work shall not be subject to this Stalinesque censorship. Then I know exactly what I’m going to do…”
report
“Stalin was a fun guy to just hang around with.”
Until he got convinced you were a traitor and had you killed.
report
Did I see the Little Green Men from Toy Story 2 there? I never imagined they would try to invade Soviet Russia.
But what is it with the framerate? I really do hope for the developer’s sake that it was a result of running Fraps or something.
report
War Of The Worlds could have been so very, very different.
report
There’s great dance move there where it looks like a whole bunch of cockroaches ran up his sleeves.
So we’ve got dancing Stalin now. Elsewhere tiptoeing tanks and bazooka air guitar.
Is Russia just completely mad these days?
report
WANT
report
Must…buy…silly…game….
I just HAVE to own this game. I also want to know HOW much vodka was consumed in its creation. Seriously. :D
report
This is a must purchase, purely due to the trailer.
report
DO WANT.
report
I am going to buy this game a hundred times.
report
Dawn of War III had better step it up… LITERALLY.
report
LOLS! @ BeamSplashX
Dance, Dance Force Commander! Or perhaps Disco Farseer!
report
my girlfriend cheated on me today.
this made up for it.
report
The wallpaper images on the official site are possibly more ridiculous than the trailer is. And the game concept sounds incredibly awesome.
report
There is one thing only that can be said here:
Take that, Red Alert 3 devs.
report
I only hope the in-game stalin has these moves. Apparently there will be a stalin unit who is fifty feet tall, just like in real life!
report
Is there anything Russian dev studios can’t achieve?
@Pijama: I was thinking similar things. Against this trailer, RA3 is but a child.
report
Holy Shizzle McDizzle, I am so moving to Russia once I get my degree.
report
And that’s why they call it a Communist party!
report
@pewpew: Ouch.
Ontopic: Yeah, think they’ve been inspired by Red Alert 3 here. I don’t mind, at all.
report
!!!!!!!!!ATTENTION!!!!!!!!!
Stalin’s dance animations are the same ones used by the dancers in Morrowind. I’m so, so, very scared.
report
This video created a strange feeling inside of my brain and body.
It’s going to be dreadful. I’m not going to care.
Be interesting to see whether there’s enough quirk here to pull a Kings Bounty.
report
THIS WAS REALLY FUNNY, I ALMOST DIED
report
STALIN IS WATCHING YOU. IF YOU DON”T BUY THIS GAME, HE WILL PWN YOU WITH HIS COOL DANCING MOVES
