Thankfully for the planet, World War III never happened. But when the Cold War ended, military strategy games based on that subject lost their appeal. Now developer Massive has revived the big what if that every modern-age war gamer"always wondered about.
What would happen if the U.S. and the Russians got into a shooting war?
World in Conflict is their answer. A real-time strategy game for the PC, this game has the prettiest 3-D graphics I ve ever seen in an RTS. It takes advantage of the DirectX 10 graphics in Windows Vista, but still works with DirectX 9 and Windows XP.
Thanks to DX10, those mushroom clouds are beautiful. (We re talking, of course, only in the language of gamers here, not real life). This game looks so good that it s no surprise that it is topping the charts of the top selling PC games.
