Tropico 3: Now With More Presidential Speeches!
Kalypso Media's Tropico 3 for PC and Xbox 360 is shaping up to be an interesting game. You play as El Presidente in the Caribbean country of Tropico during the Cold War. You can run your country like a bastardly dictator, or as a "generous statesman" that develops the country into a vacation paradise.
Recently announced was the ability to make speeches to your people to try to win over voters. If your country is bordering communist, El Presidente will address his citizens as comrades. You can make promises to your voters that, if you don't, will cause problems with your people. Check out the excerpt from the press release below and the gallery if images below that.
El Presidente’s Speech Feature:
• Speeches are held before elections and are a great tool to sway some voters in your favor.
• When a speech is created, El Presidente (the player) outlines the general directions of the speech (what problems to address, which faction or superpower to praise, what promises to make). His secretary creates the speech from these notes.
• Some parts of the speeches are automatically generated according to the political context of the election. For example in a country leaning towards communism, Presidente may address his people as "comrades".
• If the player doesn't keep his election promises, he will bear consequences later.
• El Presidente is also able to praise himself in his speeches.Tropico 3 will be available from September 2009 on Xbox 360 and PC, for more information, screenshots and the teaser trailer please visit the official game website www.tropico3.com.
