Playing Politics

from the forgive-the-pun dept

There are plenty of places to "play politics" online for fun and for money. But now Ubisoft has published "The Political Machine" if you want to actually play a video game based on a Presidential election where you can manage the virtual campaigns of Presidential candidates. Apparently, Ubisoft was going to release the game in 2000, but they thought that election was not going to be very eventful. Or maybe they just couldn't figure out how to involve our judicial system in the game.

    Wonder if it has a feature to insert family members into seats of government which can affect the out come of the election .. or better yet remove them.
