It goes without saying that it's a good thing World War III didn't erupt between the United States
and the now-defunct Soviet Union. For many of us who were children during the Cold War, the fear of being annihilated in a nuclear conflict was very real. So it's a bit strange now that we can look back at that era
and have the luxury of imagining what could have been. Or we can play World in Conflict, Sierra
and Massive Entertainment's incredible new real-time strategy game. This isn't your st
andard RTS game, as World in Conflict doesn't follow the familiar model of resource gathering, base building,
and swarming armies. Instead, it feels almost like an action game masquerading as a strategy game,
and it offers up a relentlessly fun
and amazing new approach to the genre, one that works in single-player
and even more so in multiplayer.
