    every felt like reliving wargames?

    thought you could show those commies how to use a nuke?

    picked up Defcon:everybody Dies the other day & i really enjoy it, its quite a haunting game, the lookt, he music & the stats that tell you you just killed/lost 5 million people are quite vivid

    anyone played it?

    I played the demo off steam a while back and it is really a pretty disturbing, atmospheric experience. Strategy games are my least favoured of genres, so I dont think Id buy the full release, but the effect of seeing the thing in action is pretty astonishing and scary.

    Downloaded it a while ago :eek: , so did about 3-4 of my clanmates :rolleyes: and we set up a virtual lan through hamachi :) and then proceeded to blow the crap outta each other :D:D

    Its only fun when playing against friends, especially when on voice comms...

    "No!!!! You ****....you just nuked moscow on me and killed 10million!! :p " etc etc


    Great game as a multiplayer lan for a laugh

    But not something you could play again and again and again, especially on your own.And of course theres no real winner

    Not worth the 15 your pricing it at :eek:

    Saw this in Game at the weekend boxed up with Uplink. Now that's a game that's worth the money. I got DefCon itself a while ago, and didn't really enjoy it, but Uplink is the mutt's nuts.

    Bought it a while ago, never really got into it.
    Didn't think it was as good as all the hype
