So, I one of the first game I ever loved was command & conquer red alert 2. It was silly, it was campy, but it was also fairly empowering. I always got the impression that the actors knew perfectly well how campy it was, but they did it well and it was great.
And I was wondering if anybody knew of any games (be they RTS or any other genre) that have a similar tongue in cheek, campy nature. I know EA tried to do so with RA3, but it kinda fell flat (like they were trying too hard to be like RA2, I've never been able to really well explain it). I've been kinda burned-out of over-serious games, so I'm looking for something that has the fun and silliness of my old favorite RA2 to get back into the game(s).
If anybody has any ideas, I would love to hear them
Dot. I'll throw some out here when I get home.
I vaguely remember a Dune RTS game like RA, but i'm not sure if it was campy or not.
I believe dune fits in the "overserious" bag. I'm getting tired of gloom & doom themes in stories.

Yeah I don't remember it being too serious at all or even that dune themed. All I know is you had to support your buildings and harvesters against random worm attack. It was very much RA reflavored.
So, I'm not sure if I can help if you're specifically looking for RTS games. However, if you're just looking for humor, here are a few suggestions:
Overlord II
Portal 2
Borderlands (any/all)
The Stanley Parable
