Hehe, Tropico was fun little game back then. Tho, my country never really got big because I was more interested in jailing and killing my citizens.

I used to lay this game a lot, occasionally created socialist paradises, occasionally ran complete hellholes, and sometimes build as many prisons as my island could fit, then jailed everyone and passed the edict which sent them all to the states as illegals, just to piss the us off, then signed a deal with the soviets to keep the invasion out and ran away with my huge slush fund.

Good times.

I dident even know there was a tropico 2

Heres another trailer that just shows cutscenes and nothing with the actual gameplay in it.

I had the fisrt one and played it a bit but burned out fast. It came out at a bad time and got run over by the likes of Knights of the Old Republic

Ill watch the reviews on this title though I still like the idea.

I always wanted to play Tropico. I saw it at Wal-Mart years ago but couldn't decide between that or Sim City 3000 Unlimited. I chose SC3000. I knew there was a Tropico 2 but never got that, either. The trailer looked good. I will have to check out Tropico 3. I hope my computer can handle it.

Tropico 2, though I didn't play it, has a pirate theme to it which I never liked the sound of compared to the old one

Hehe, I remember when the "advisor" in Tropico 2 says something like "Can't shiver our timbers, without timber!" Meaning, I should build a lumber camp.

He said 'Vote' -three times!
In my country, El Presidente votes YOU!

Downloading the demo now ... thanks
I really like it that they've returned to the modern Carribean setting. Already the music made playing Tropico 1 worthwhile

I've downloaded it with about 1100 kB/s
Too bad it needs a video card with shader 3.0 - even as minimum system requirements. The game runs, but the water looks kinda weird - on my brand new notebook. Then again, I bought it for writing my essays and not for playing

Damn it, I used to max my line from filefront before the site died and came back to life, now I get 100kbps. 270kb from gamershell is the best i get at the moment.
