EmP's Tropico 4 review

Hey. Hey you. Hey! Was this the thing you were leading up to all last week in your blog that you've since deleted because you missed the deadline last night? Is it? Will there be more? =D =D =D

Hurray! A new review from you! Oh, wait. I expressed my excitement over that in the last post.

Anyway, this was pretty good, considering you haven't written a review since last year. You made the game sound really interesting. Hell, I wouldn't mind giving it a go given the opportunity. For a simulation title, it sounds awesome, and the political aspect really appeals to me. You also do a good job describing all the features and facets involved, too, without (undoubtedly) giving too much away. Good job.

This is a great review, Emp. The opening was particularly strong, as your openings usually are, really.

Anyway, the piece flows easily and logically as you run down the examples of how we are likely to become criminally immersed in the game should we try it.

You weren't gone for THAT LONG, but this is a "I'm back, bitches" piece all the same.

Now, where's the next one?

Don't call it a comeback. I've been here for years.

Thanks for the kind words, gang. I stumbled through this one a little bit, but it's gratifying to see I'm not past my sell by date just yet.

I'll crank something else out before 2012. Probably.

Before 2012? You've given yourself a huge window. Challenge yourself properly: tell yourself you'll have something else up by December 2011.

Bleh. We'll see.
