Glu, sick of making highly rational, unimaginative games like Glyder (/sarcasm), is taking a different tack for Mini Golf Wacky Worlds.

Let your hair down, loosen that tie, and grab your putter, Poindexter! It's time to get wacky!

Command & Conquer is one of the real-time strategy genre's biggest names. It's produced eight games since the series started back in 1995, along with many expansion packs, across three different mini-franchises. Now the series is making war on the RTS-starved iPhone in the form of Command & Conquer: Red Alert. We took a look at a pre-Alpha build of the game at EA's booth and whooped some Soviet behind! Details after the jump.

We found a bank of iPhones tucked away in a corner of EA's massive booth with some serious goodies on them. One big name was Command & Conquer: Red Alert, which we will be writing up and filming tomorrow. Another was Mass Effect Galaxy, a kind of bite-sized introduction to some of the characters that will factor heavily into Mass Effect 2. Details and video after the jump!

We caught up with Don Lim earlier tonight at a location with some better wireless access, so we got a first-hand look at the head-to-head online gameplay, playing against some of Com2uS' quality assurance testers in Korea. The head-to-head gameplay doesn't disappoint.

Midway still has a catalog of arcade classics a mile long, and a great new place to sell them called the App Store. Developer Handheld Games has been hard at work bringing Marble Madness to the iPhone, and we got a good look at it earlier today at E3.
