* ''[[Full Metal Panic!]]'' is set in an alternate reality where the Cold War never ended and both the United States and the Soviet Union have developed [[Humongous Mecha|Arm Slave]] technology.
 
 
Line 83:
* ''[[Call of Duty]]: [[Modern Warfare]] 2'' has the Russians {{spoiler|reverse engineer an American satellite component, which allows them to launch a massive trans-oceanic invasion of the US Mainland with complete surprise.}}
* In the [[R Emake]] of ''[[Battlezone (1998 video game)|Battlezone 1998]]'', the [[Beethoven Was an Alien Spy|Space Race between the USA and the Soviet Union]] was really about the [[Applied Phlebotinum]], featured hovertanks and was fought over most of the solar system.
* Parodied in the Wii version of ''[[Punch -Out!!]]'', where Soda Popinski's Title Defense intro shows Soviet scientists working with all their might to produce... grape soda.
** Grape soda that makes Soda Popinski strong enough to ''drag a truck with his teeth''.
* Just to compliment the caption joke above: averted in ''[[Resistance]]'', where the Russians were never Communists ([[Alternate History|the 1917 revolution was crushed]]) and were wiped out by aliens, who did have superscience.
