Matrix Games Forums

Hi,



I request Matrix to create a game representing the modern day geopolitical world. I have played both Superpower 1 & 2 as well as Supreme Ruler 2010 but they suck. I have also heard about a French company making such a game named "Mission President GPS" but I dont think they would be able to make it right. I have confidence in Matrix and I request them to please create such a game. Thanks[:)]

yse, there is no lot of such games in the market at the moment...unfotunatly...

i loved old games (on c-64): President, Bananadrama... does anyone played these games?

The geopolitical situation isn't as interesting since the collapse of the Soviet Union . . . but in a couple of years China should emerge as a superpower.

Are you kidding? The multi-polar world is much more "interesting" since the Soviet Union disappeared...

 
Well when the Soviets still existed - only lunatics like Reagan and Thatcher had their fingers on the nuclear button.  Now Iranians will get them, thats no big deal those guys are no threat to anybody [8|]

Modern geopolitical game seems like very VERY hard task to do right, and is obviously not as sexy as good ole proven WW2.
 
For what is worth I think Supreme Ruler 2010 was very good, and I can hardly imagine more ambitious modern geopolitical game (that would actually work [:D])
 
I don't know what would please the original poster if he was disappointed with SP2010. Modern "multi-polar", asymertical and whatnot, situation cannot be represented by something as simple as, say, GG WaW (we all wish it could)
 
 
 

Superpower was a good try...

Yeah, like the Munich Treaty was a good try...

slightly OT: if you like political games

try Twilight Struggle by GMT
its a boardgame about the Cold War, mixture of cards and counters
its a great game
