Ripten has went ahead and posted a review of the Political Machine 2008 this past weekend.  It's a great review with a great bit of humor as well. 

"At first glance this downloadable game looks a bit like Civilization, but on a scale of 41 weeks instead of 4,100 years. Also, instead of a whole world to explore, you are limited to the 50 United States (suck it, Guam!), and there is no “fog of war” obscuring your view of the nation. While there is no rolling blackness from your perspective, the nation’s voters are wallowing in ignorance, and it’s up to you to educate them with speeches, ads, and political trickery."

TPM gets an 8.2, so be sure to get on over there and read the full review.

There are some wicked suggestions in that review (even if tongue in cheek)

I'd buy a smear-pack that included youTube video and such like.  I can imagine a fog rolling across the map as teh meme spread!


Great review though.  Awesome game.
