For a remarkably bright guy, Bogost's definition of politics is pretty poor. What he describes would better describe governing or government, not politics.

I think the game is alright. Too bad you couldn't attack the person's character(not the actual but the person's character.) Would have been nicer to have more interest groups and the like of it...

@Rika Aiuchi is SeXXXy: Wow... the whole first part of my comment disappeared. I guess I typed over it while it was highlit...

In video games, you do take part in the politics indirectly or directly. Why there haven't been more purely political games is... it's just boring without a mask over it. -_- Unless you're a poli sci major like me, I honestly don't think anybody wants to be doing John McCain's damage control over Palin or Spending Specific amounts of money on phonecalls and advertising.
