After reading two articles about this game in CGW I decided to read up on what the CAG community had to say about it. After a search I found nothing on "The Political Machine" so here we go...
"Take command of the campaign of a US presidential campaign in The Political Machine. The new strategy game that covers the race for the white house. Design or choose your candidate and your opponent and help them run for the nation's highest office."
From the http://www.politicalmachine.com/index.asp?u=0 front page:
Take out ads promoting yourself or smearing your opponent, give rousing speeches on the issues that matter, win the endorsements of those "special interest groups", hire smear merchants, spin doctors, scandal mongers and more to sway voters in those key battle ground states as you head in towards election day.
Candidates can play against the computer or other players via the Internet. Play in the "real world" modeled using exit polling data, census data, or set up a fantasy map where you control what the issues are. The Political Machine awaits you.
...the game itself has recieved very high scores & looks like a load of fun to play. Has anyone bought this yet? Reccomend it? Visit the site and post your thoughts up about it here!
