1* In the second ''Soviet Assault'' trailer: The Russian paratroopers are making a LastStand inside a mall, then ''a [[DynamicEntry frigging Soviet tank crashes through the skylights]]'' and [[TheCavalry starts firing away at their attackers]]. And then its bright red parachute covers the windows, [[LawOfChromaticSuperiority painting the whole scene RED]], while the [[SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic Ominous Russian Chorus]] goes up to eleven for the final time in the trailer.
2** Bonus points for the tank being apparently the [[BrickJoke same one that was being paradropped at the beginning of the video]].
3** Just to try and be helpful, the name of the song the Ominous Chorus are singing is 'Polyushka Polye', a folk song.
4* At the beginning of "Battle of Pine Valley", Sawyer's reaction to his radioman getting sniped is to resume briefing you and your fellow [=COs=]. ''In open air''. While ''artillery landed nearby''.
5** Then he asks you to avenge the fallen private.
6** When the sniper narrowly misses Sawyer during his briefing, the Colonel doesn’t duck or flinch. He merely pauses in irritation, and tells Parker to ''deal'' with that guy.
7** At the end of the level, you're being overrun by Soviets from all sides. Suddenly, you hear a static-filled transmission from the USS ''Missouri'', which promptly wastes a company of Soviet tanks. [[StuffBlowingUp Then Sawyer gives you command of its guns.]]
8* Bannon staying behind as a ''goddamn nuke'' is called on his position, all to keep the Soviets from getting to the SDI.
9* The cutscene that plays during the New York mission after you save the Art/StatueOfLiberty from the Spetznaz commandos trying to use it to fire chemical weapons into Manhattan. If you fail, an airstrike will destroy the statue.
10-->'''Colonel Sawyer:''' ''I see green smoke!'' Call off the strike, damn it!\
11'''Radioman:''' This is Eagle Six, abort! Abort! Abort!\
12'''Colonel Sawyer:''' ''[to himself]'' Good work, Parker.\
13''[two fighters swoop by, showing you were seconds from watching the Statue of Liberty be destroyed]''\
14'''Colonel Sawyer:''' Well, done, lieutenant. That was above and beyond the call. We should carve your name into the base for what you've done today.
15* The opening cinematic for when the game loads up is pretty cool as well. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d8RSl4qlQzg It's basically 30 seconds of combat clips.]]
16* Sawyer pulling a BilingualBackfire on Sabatier -- and speaking French when he does so. By keeping his response succinct and in Sabatier's native language, he's essentially saying, "You want to be annoyed with me for my command decisions? Fine, be annoyed with me. But do ''not'' try painting this as France vs. America."
17* Malashenko's furious anger at his wife's death and Bannon's arrogant foolishness essentially force Romanov and Parker to carry the entire war on their backs. They succeed with gusto at every step.
18* The final mission opens with a rousing and energetic GospelRevivalNumber delivered by the African-American gospel preacher Rev. Powell, with a backing choir for emphasis.
