Hellos, I'm still alive.
Anyways, I just thought I would enlighten you all about
Tropico 3.
It's a remake of the original
Tropico, which just happens to be one of my most favorite city-building sims of all time. You play the newly in-charge dictator of a tropical island in the Caribbean. It's the height of the Cold War, and you have to balance relations with the U.S. and U.S.S.R. all while turning your island into a profitable industrial/agricultural/tourist paradise and, most importantly, staying in power. I highly suggest the game. A little warning though: I heard Tropico 3 has a bit of a learning curve if you haven't played any of the previous incarnations.
You really should think about getting this game. And, you know, while you're at it, why not just pick up
Tropico: Reloaded, as well? You'd really be doing yourself a favor.
