Iraq Invasion: A Text Misadventure

Recommended Posts

Anyone know when this game hits the shelves? Here's a preview:

 

Oval Office

You are standing inside a White House, having just been elected to the presidency of the United States. You knew Scalia would pull through for you.

 

There is a large desk here, along with a few chairs and couches. The presidential seal is in the middle of the room and there is a full-length mirror upon the wall.

 

What do you want to do now?

You are not able to do that, yet.

 

> LOOK MIRROR

Self-reflection is not your strong suit.

It's not that kind of seal.

They are two several chairs arranged around the center of the room, along with two couches. Under one couch you find Clinton's shoes.

 

> FILL SHOES

You are unable to fill Clinton's shoes.

 

> EXAMINE DESK

It is a large, oak desk, with several drawers.

 

In one drawer you find a bag of pretzels.

"We know that Iraq and the al Qaeda terrorist network share a common enemy -- the United States of America. We know that Iraq and al Qaeda have had high-level contacts that go back a decade. And we know that after September the 11th, Saddam Hussein's regime gleefully celebrated the terrorist attacks on America ..."

 

> PUNISH CRITICS

"Wilson never worked for the CIA, but his wife, Valerie Plame, is an Agency operative on weapons of mass destruction ... "

You schedule a vote on the Iraq invasion for just before the 2002 midterm elections. As usual, spineless democrats roll over like an SUV taking a sharp corner.

 

Your plan to invade Iraq now has the backing of the American people and Congress.

Baghdad

You enter the Iraqi capital of Bagdad, having toppled the government and captured the nation's key cities in only 21 days. You can't seem to find the promised throngs of citizens greeting you as liberators, but the footage of the Saddam statue being pulled down looks great on Fox!

Will this be exclusive to only one console?

 

Yeah it'll be X-box 360 only as no other console would be able to run it without having to scale down the graphics.
