Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3[edit]

Unsourced rumours about a non-released game. Reposted twice, The previous AFDs are here and here, results were no consensus and delete respectively. Contested prod. MER-C 02:40, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Keep This game will definitely be released soon. A google search shows almost 400 unique hits for this game title. Moreover, the last two AfD pages regarding this article was about a year ago when there were even plans not to release this game. One year has passed and it seems that EA is about to officially announce the release of this game. --S iva1979^{Talk to me} 02:54, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. The Google search Siva mentioned has no reliable sources. Everything relevant links back to this page, which has no information and lists its related links as "Network forums". If EA officially announces the game, then it can have an article. --Wafulz 03:01, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Also, it seems that every mention of the game's development stemmed from an unofficial announcement in 2004. It looks like the game was never officially announced and abandoned rather quickly. It's crystal balling at this point to say anything else. --Wafulz 03:06, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy delete as repost. Looks like the same content with the same (non-)sources as in the last AfD. What part of "it can have its article once it is released" is so hard to understand? Sandstein 05:47, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Unreleased game with no reliable sources stating that it's actually coming out ever. Save the crystal ball for the circus gypsy act. - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 06:05, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. When more information comes to, then off course the article can be remade. Culv e rin ? ^Talk 07:04, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete till game is announced. BJ^Talk 07:09, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as crytsalballin'; create when there's something substantial. Now I'm off to create the Conquer: Red Alert 7 article. SkierRMH,10:07, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, even if there is to be an announcement soon we know nothing about the game yet and cannot write about nothing Alf photoman 14:45, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - 400 Ghits? For a game series as huge as C&C? Get real Siva. That's not notable for a free fangame, never mind a supposed sequel to Red Alert 2! WP:NOT a crystal ball, WP:V, WP:N all failed. The Kinslayer 15:41, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
keep - Look Skaggs was important while it looks like it will never come out now it's still notalble that someone as important as Skaggs said it was coming. Plus for the crystal ball thing were not saying it's coming out Skaggs did. Jamhaw 18:16, 14 December 2006 (UTC)jamhaw[reply]
Delete - Looking at the subject as an upcoming game is crystal balling. Looking at the subject as an abondoned, non-existant game makes it non-notable. Well, the game doesn't exist. How can it possibly be notable? Secateur 21:35, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
