Starcraft 2 will have better mechanics and balance, and a stronger community. It's going to be massive. It will almost certainly be *the* competitive RTS until Blizzard releases SC3.
That being said, I'm not very excited for it. As usual, Blizzard is more interested in refinement than innovation. And that's fine, it works for them, but I'm paying more attention to Relic, Gas-Powered Games, Stardock, etc.
So where does RA3 fit into all of this? I dunno, it'll be the mediocre-but-probably-better-than-most-people-were-expecting-after-the-disaster-that-was-C&C3KW RTS that gets ported to the 360. Really, I'm not sure what it brings to the table. Armoured bears, I guess. The setting is pretty interesting but that's about it.
It depends on what you want.
Superb balance, huge community: Starcraft 2.
Innovation: not Starcraft 2
Armoured Bears with friggin' parachutes: Red Alert 3
