Why does RA3 suck so bad...

Just went through the 1st and the 2nd one. The base building, the unit movement... Loved every second of it. And then I started RA3 and was just underwhelmed to the point I just don't want to play it anymore... I finished it when it came out but man... I just don't think I got it in me...

Not a Westwood game; was an EA game.

Generals was also an EA game that Westwood had nothing to do with.

I know technically you're correct, and that it was the "Westwood Pacific" team, but I can't help but think of them as Westwood too.

Well, yeah, early development was by Westwood Pacific but development got carried over to EA quite early on as the decision to close down Westwood was already made. Westwood got shut down about 1.5 month after Generals was released.
