    Mike. What is this Tropico 2 you speak of? I do not recall there ever being such a product. Only Tropico 1 and its expansion exists. There is no Tropico 2. There never has been.


    Tropico 3 is just a product of making up for there not being a Tropico in a while and in order to seem like they were still active they named it 3 just for the hell of it.

    Awesome. The game of 1 with the functionality of 2 is all that's necessary.


    And the music! The music was part of the best part. I really hope they still do that well.

    I have little faith in games that completely abandon their original developer. None of the people that made the original Tropico are involved in this. Why should we expect them to have any idea of what they are doing?


    It's a Masters Of Orion 3 waiting to happen

    I remember playing the demo of Tropico all the time. It was a pretty juicy demo, really content-rich, so much that i never got to buying the full game. This one, though, I think I might purchase.

    Nooo! Damn, I hope they are actually going to do something positive towards the game and not cutting any of the legs off.

    I've never actually played any Sim game except for Sim City Creator on my DS.


    Is it basically Second Life except only Single Player? Or are they taking a multiplayer route to it as well?


    Looks boring as crap to me. But I'm sure it'll still help them dominate the sales charts up there with Wrath of the Lich King for all of 2009 and 2010.

    Original IP? Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't that usually imply something more than a sequel?

    I can only dream about what could happen if this ever became as popular as America's Army... "Popular MMO crashes under extreme server stress; Army: Peace just doesn't work"

    "Send aid to african americans?"

    *click* "You have chosen YES"

    "We're assuming you meant NO"

    "Don't worry we got this one..."


    "Send blackwater to euthanize 'looters'?"

    *click* "You have chosen NO"

    "Come on our billions of dollars reserved for private military contractors have to go somewhere, trust us on this one"

    *bleep* "Yes"


    That'd be a pretty real simulation.

    I think he's referring to the fact that you said African Americans instead of just Africa. I noticed it too a LOL'd pretty good.

    I'm down for this as long as user generated smells can't be loaded up. Last thing anyone wants is some angry teen putting on sweats and running 3 miles and putting the Smell-a-tron to his balls to give a whiff of his nut mustard.
